Hinkley C gets the green light

Planning permission has been granted by Energy Secretary Ed Davey for EDF to get the wheels in motion. It's estimated that the £145 billion project will create between 20,000 and 25,000 jobs - but build time is estimated to be around 10 years.

But have we got the skilled people to do the job?
