Bring it on Elon!

Good post Grammaretto, something happened to Elon Musk when his child announced they were trans.
It’s clear suspicion about ‘traditional’ politicians is high. So called populist politicians are gaining popularity. They offer overly simplistic answers to complex problems, usually in an emotional manner. It’s on the rise, contributed to Trump winning the election, and is on the rise in Europe.
Populists believe society in separated into two polarised groups. ‘Pure’ people and a corrupt elite.
That is being played out in the UK and the arrival of Elon Musk with his endless supply of money and strange right week views is disturbing. Farage is now pushing an anti abortion agenda - that will please Trump and Farage

I don’t agree FGT that they’re the adults in the room, more like angry selfish adolescents or old grumpy cold critical/over emotional parents

Elon has made over $100 million dollars since Jan 6th. He is now in charge of the regulators who regulate his business. This is self enrichment at its finest.

Let's not blame this on his transgender daughter. She started transitioning well before his flip floppong started.

Sheer provocation from FGT2- how very unpleasant.
Oh, the irony!! 😂😂😂

I do not agree with Reform and would never support them at all.

But really, that has made me 😂😂😂

Elon Musk has a child? 😯

Very interesting radio 4 programme about Elon.
He seemed to have completely flipped when his son changed sex.
Before that he was a more normal human being. He was a Hilary Clinton supporter.

No-one can change sex.

Gender, yes, but sex, no.

I cannot believe any sane person could follow Farage and actually applaud him
How can anyone not see through this man he is transparently nasty, right wing, racist, anti Euro whilst married to a European ( maybe divorced now not sure) so total hypocrite he is an English Trump makes me shudder to even say his name

Sorry but Nigel is not racist.

I don't think this is good news either and I don't think that someone starting a thread should be accused of sheer provocation and being very unpleasant, just because their opinions aren't shared by others.

using the words 'bricking it' is hardly conducive to fair and pleasant debate, is it?

It’s just a colloquial way of saying something 😁

As it’s the panto season all I can say is ‘oh yes he is…’

OK FGT, it’s up to you if you don’t want to / aren’t able to tell me anything positive about why Reform will be good for the UK … that old chestnut!

I think he's possibly made slightly more!

Elon Musks’s wealth has jumped more than $170 billion since Election Day

All I will say is “Be careful what you wish for”.
Research, research, research then make an informed choice, don’t be led by rhetoric.

The pigs are flying high tonight.

I can't help feeling that a political party that is run as a company and accepts large donations from a foreigner is not a good thing, but the big worry is the lack of information about Reforms policies. I see plenty of supporters talking about how reform will change everything and "clean the swamp" but no details of how this will happen. People are saying that Farage MUST be Prime Minister, but again no plan to achieve this. Do they expect armed supporters to take to the streets, or do they expect the entire population to join Reform? I think I read that their plans for the NHS covered half an A4 page. It doesn't bode well at the moment.

Elon has 12 children, Allira!

Much in the same way that the Pope's not Catholic?

I’m. Ertainky not ‘blaming his daughter’. Musk is a strange character who is getting stranger

OMGoodness!

12 little Musks 😯

Exactly Allira - he’s an oddity

You may not be blaming her, but others are.

All I am trying to get across is, don't let the chatter drown out what us really going on. England still has a chance to stop this. We do not.

He certainly crossed the line into weird creepiness when he offered to impregnate Taylor Swift.

Such massive wealth must unhinge people.
