A 50-minute exchange that reveals what’s really happening in Australia’s energy debate.

19-year-old Nuclear for Australia founder Will Shackel was called to give evidence before the Select Committee on Information Integrity on Climate Change and Energy.

He went in expecting a genuine discussion about facts, science and the need for an informed national conversation.

What followed was something very different: open hostility and a striking double standard - grilling Will while refusing to hold the anti-nuclear groups responsible for their $3M disinformation campaign.

This hearing shows how powerful interests are working to shut down honest discussion about nuclear energy in Australia.
