"This is an historic moment that could deal a fatal blow to Blair's nuclear legacy. It could rule out three of the main sites identified for the next generation of UK nuclear power stations at a stroke. Scotland is uniquely placed to take advantage of wind and wave power and this decision gives it an opportunity to become a world-leader in tackling climate change without the huge costs and dangers inherent in nuclear power. The government south of the border would do well to follow this example."
