Please! Please! Please! - Professor Howarth, listen to Kirk Sorensen's evidence of the past successes of thorium fuelled Molten Salt Reactors (MSRs) and what the future holds for LFTRs. At the end of the summer, you can then present a balanced report to Chris Huhne, the Secretary of State for Energy and Climate Change; this will rectify the omission of a mention of the use of the Thorium Fuel Cycle in MSRs, in your Position Paper of August 2010, of that name.
I do hope I shall get an early response to my letter, posted to you today, 16 July 2011, asking if you are willing and able to invite Kirk Sorensen to make the case, to you and your NNL staff, that any country with decent scientific, technological and economical resources can 'make LFTRs happen' - this means the UK.
In all probability, you and only you will influence politics to take the path of increased UK manufacturing jobs, growth and prosperity not seen in 3 generations, versus a bit-part in the future of nuclear power across the globe.
