The Financial Times leads on the news that Hitachi is preparing to pull out of plans to build a nuclear power plant on Anglesey in Wales. The paper calls it a “severe blow to Britain’s struggling nuclear power programme” at a time when the UK is trying to cut carbon emissions to reach its “net zero” target by 2050. Hitachi’s exit could also hit UK plans to reduce reliance on China, the paper says.
