While nuclear power produces bountiful clean energy,

Well no, it doesn’t, not at the moment. It may be low carbon, but it certainly isn’t clean, as the £120 billion ( and rapidly rising) costs of cleaning up the Sellafield site demonstrates. A cost so large that the “low-cost electricity” argument used to justify it’s build are proven to be false- the electricity wasn’t cheap, it was very expensive, the bill was just deferred until end-of-life.
