You can stock it though, in case foreign countries cut supply short you're not suddendly out of power but instead have time to plan a negotiation or attempt to source it from elsewhere.

Not so great when the foreign powers decide to bomb the nuclear reactors though.

Anyone capable of bombing a nuclear reactor in the UK would just nuke the UK so a reactor doesn't really play into it
