Do we produce our own uranium or would we still end up relying on someone for that though?

Kazakhstan is the primary producer of uranium. Deposits in the UK are not economically viable

Winter of discontent with a pound shop Thatcher as leader.

Germany was warned about their reliance on Gas imports when they announced they were closing their nuclear plants.

Yes true, they laughed back then though when people said they shouldn't be so reliant on RU gas, so fully their own fault (also the reason why they didn't want to annoy RU by supplying weapons to Ukraine hoping RU wouldn't chop their gas supply). Still they are where they are now and it will have huge implications on Europe overall.

As for the UK, it's also not in a great position as they have very little storage capacity and increasing market prices are hitting them the same way it's hitting every other country. Apparently in London data centres are pulling so much juice that there's not much left for anyone else :/

Now imagine being on a perm salary of £1500 and having to fork out £500 on your energy bill in a few months time...this is sadly the reality most people are going to have to face.

I genuinely don't know how some people are going to cope.

We could always get deposits of uranium from Russia, if our government falls out of favour with them.
