BREAKING NEWS: Safety procedures in disarray at Finland’s Olkiluoto 3 nuclear construction site - but this story has nothing to do with Greenpeace

Read that headline again - "BREAKING NEWS: Safety procedures in disarray at Finland’s Olkiluoto 3 nuclear construction site" it's from the Greenpeace website under their Blog section.

Down at the bottom you will find "Dodgy Disclaimer"

Which says "inter alia" ....

"The opinions expressed on this website are the entirely personal opinions of various members of Greenpeace who should probably be busy working on some highly important and time consuming project but instead choose to make their opinions known to the rest world in the naïve belief anybody else wants to know, and those from outside Greenpeace foolhardy enough to venture into the debate. The opinions have nothing at all, absolutely, whatsoever, for all time and in any way, shape or form at all, anything to do with Greenpeace, probably never will do, definitely never ought to, and should not be construed to be so. In fact, we wash our hands of it all, completely (especially Gillo’s bits).

So when you read ...." Documents seen by Greenpeace show that French company Areva is failing to implement vital safety procedures in the troubled construction of its prototype European Pressurized Water Reactor (EPR) in Olkiluoto, Finland. As well as being 2-3 years behind schedule, 70 per cent over budget, and experiencing 1,500 construction defects along with a damaging fire, the reactor’s safety cannot be guaranteed."

So when lazy journalists post a story that kicks off.... "Environmental group Greenpeace said earlier this month that builders had not followed proper procedures for welding, prompting the government to ask for reports on inspection procedures and standards for finished work. " Bloomberg : Finnish Nuclear Agency Finds Some Flaws in Olkiluoto Safety By Diana ben-Aaron

Remember the actual source ..... The opinions have nothing at all, absolutely, whatsoever, for all time and in any way, shape or form at all, anything to do with Greenpeace, probably never will do, definitely never ought to, and should not be construed to be so.
