We will legislate to ensure that Scotland can host new nuclear power generation.
Energy is a reserved power of the sovereign parliament of our United Kingdom, and I am fed up with the SNP playing games with devolved planning policy to block our nuclear renewal.
If John Swinney and SNP ministers want to have a fight over any plans that would deliver thousands of jobs and protect energy security, then I say bring it on.
We will need a third large-scale reactor. We will build that reactor, and no part of Britain will be off limits, including Scotland.
