I think we need to look at what France is doing. They seem to have a good safety culture as a society, 90% of their power is nuclear and has been for decades they’ve never had a serious accident. Other examples, they have also never had a serious high speed train accident. They seem to be able to build these things considerably cheaper than we are able to in Britain and way cheaper than you can in America. They are a first world country with equivalent living conditions to the UK so unlike comparisons with China where many people blame poor working conditions and under regulation for cheapness, you can’t make the same argument against France. By the way I don’t know if that’s true about regulations in China (who does) but it is an argument that many people make that is a lot more easily refuted by just comparing with France instead.
