Also, no sooner had Gordon Brown's minister formally stated his government's support for nuclear power, French-owned energy company EDF, the world's largest nuclear operator [1], announced its plans to build four new nuclear power stations in the UK [2]. And what do you know: Gordon Brown's brother, Andrew, just happens to be EDF's head of media relations [3].
