Nuclear received significant more subsidies than solar and wind combined even discounting the military sector [1,2]. I still find the thought that somehow nuclear with massive lobbying from corporations behind them is supposed to be sidelined for political reasons, really strange. In particular considering that in the last 50 years in most western countries conservative governments who generally favor business over community interests have been in power about 50% of the time.
