Bullshit , uranium ore does have low levels of radiation in it's natural 
state (U235 & U238 ) and it is refined into yellow cake that has a higher 
concentration of radioactive elements.
Also Yellow Cake if fairly toxic to people , it is a heavy metal , just like 
mercury and lead.

Why don't you get your facts straight , I bet you don't even live in WA , 
and have no idea where are the iron ore ports are located , not to mention 
the fact that the rail lines from the iron ore depostis to the ports are 
PRIVATELY OWNED , so you will have quite a problem trying to get access to 
those rail lines as was the case recently .

Then the media should also be looking at the false and deceptive adverts 
that Barnett  is using.

Physics is not one of your strong points is it ? , perhaps you missed those 
classes and opted to go and get pissed out of your tiny brain at all those 
Young Liberal parties , I have heard all about them from other sources than 
the media.

Typical Liberal idealist and how to treat the workers  , getting the mine 
workers to expose themselves to dangerous workplace practices all in the 
name of money for big businesses , I wouldn't be surprised if you expected 
the mine workers to work without any personal protection equipment ( PPE)

Yeah , and pollute other parts of the world with radioactive nuclear waste , 
particulary China , they don't give a stuff about pollution , all they want 
is to exploit the workers and  generate a massive profit.

Correction , it would NOT bring massive amounts of money to the state Gov , 
all the uranium mining  profits would go to Barnett's mates in the big 
business sector.
All the crap about uranium  you are dribbling about is not for the benefit 
of the WA community , it is  all for the Liberals and Barnetts mates in the 
multinational companies , particularly the mates of Malcolm Turnbull who 
have already formed a company to build nuclear reactors in Aust.

It was the same as the Ken Court's proposed iron ore port at Oakagee , it 
went belly up because everybody knew it was for the benefit of Ken and 
Richard Court and all their business mates at the big end of town , after 
the Libs got turfed out of Gov , the Labor Gov put it on the backburner 
until recently so as to stop all those Liberal arseholes from getting even 
richer.
