Opposition leader Peter Dutton says nuclear energy is the cheapest, most consistent and cleanest energy around.

Today, climate and energy correspondent Mike Foley fact checks the Opposition’s claims about nuclear energy, and delves into the latest poll about what voters want and how this might impact the Coalition's desire to usher in nuclear energy,
And later, national environment and climate editor Nick O’Malley on what happened at ‘Nukey Poo’, and the cancer cases linked to it.
