UNIONS have written to Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer urging him to give the green light to the Sizewell C nuclear plant in Suffolk ahead of the government’s investment summit tomorrow.

GMB and Prospect say a final investment decision (FID) on the major infrastructure project has reached a “critical point” where further delays would risk the “seamless” transition of thousands of workers and supply chains from Hinkley Point C.

A Department for Energy Security spokesman said: “There are no plans for a delay to Sizewell C, with discussions with potential investors ongoing, and our intention is to deliver the project as quickly as possible.”
