Elon Musk: There are no lords and peasants at Tesla. Everyone eats at the same table.

“I actually know the people on the line, because I worked on the line, I walked the line, I slept in the factory, and I worked beside them. So, I'm no stranger to them.

There are many people at Tesla who have gone from working on the line to being in senior management. There are no lords and peasants. Everyone eats at the same table. Everyone parks in the same parking lot.

At GM, there's a special elevator only for senior executives. We have no such thing at Tesla.

We give everyone stock options. Many people who are just working the line, who didn't even know what stocks were, we've made them millionaires.

And I just want to say that I'm incredibly appreciative of those who build the cars, and they know it.”

Don’t worry about Elon becoming rich with his own money.

Worry about politicians becoming rich with your money.

Billionaires literally paralyzed the Monaco harbor. Over 200 (!) yachts showed up for the latest F1 Grand Prix. Prince Albert II, Kim Kardashian, Michael Douglas, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Donald Trump Jr., and a bunch of other celebs were spotted on board. Some of these boats even pulled up with $5 million Koenigseggs and Bugattis parked right on the deck.

And watch these exact same people gather at some climate summit later to lecture you about how dropping a candy wrapper is destroying the planet 💀

Hypocrite

The same Lewis Hamilton who used a corporate leasing structure to save money on taxes (around £3.3 million in VAT) when acquiring his Bombardier Challenger 605 private jet in 2013? The same Lewis Hamilton who bought the £16.5 million jet through his British Virgin Islands company (Stealth Aviation Ltd) and who then set up an Isle of Man leasing company (Stealth (IOM) Ltd, to import it into the EU and sub-leased it to a UK jet management firm (TAG Aviation), which in turn provided it back to Hamilton and his Guernsey company under charter agreements? *That* Lewis Hamilton?

🚨 BREAKING: Slain 18YO white male Henry Nowak's father just WENT OFF, saying the killer stabbed his son and police did NOTHING despite his imminent death

"Henry told officers he could not breathe **9 times**." 😢

He says the police FAILED and refused to believe him. The killer is now jailed.

WHERE IS THE OUTRAGE?! BARBARIAN.

"Henry was pulled across the gravel his hands forced behind his back and he was placed in handcuffs. Instead of being treated as a dying victim the police formally arrested Henry for assault and read in his rights. That was the last thing he heard."

"Henry had been stabbed multiple times and as his chest filled with blood he tried to escape. He was chased, abused and filmed...when police arrived Henry was lying on the floor fairly able to sit up and plainly in severe medical distress. With his final words he told officers that he could not breathe. He told them he had been stabbed."

"The police have said they were misled by the murderers and that the scene when they arrived was complex."

"Unfortunately it seems to us the truth is much simpler. The police were told by our son himself and by a member of the public...but the police did not believe that."

"As a family we will not let this go. No other family should experience the heartbreak and horror of losing a child to knife crime."

"Finally, I want Henry to know. We are so proud of him and we love him." 🙏🏻

The law needs to be changed to declassify a Pension as a benefit.

I find it grotesque that having paid into a system all your working life that it’s deemed as a handout rather than something you deserve for working hard all your life.

Benefits are for people that don’t work

Pensions are for people who worked hard & earned their pension.

A pension is not a benefit.

If a single use cubicle with a lockable door renders it safe for women in a mixed sex changing room why does the same lockable single use cubicle make transwomen unsafe in men’s changing rooms?

[Sharron Davies HoL MBE @sharrond62]

I refuse to shop at any store selling women’s cloths that won’t protect the female changing rooms as stated by Uk law. If we use the pound in our pocket shops will stop allowing a minority of loud voices to dictate unlawful policy putting girls & women in potential harms way.

Miracles do indeed happen 🤭

A young German female activist from the latest Gaza flotilla was filmed by media in a neck-brace with her face looking “bruised and battered”, her expression tearful and “traumatized” after being held for a few hours in Israel.

But then…. The Miracle 🤣

Just a couple of hours later, the same young German female activist was filmed perfectly fine, bouncing around, smiling and cheering… no bruises, no marks, no neck-brace, no injuries, no anything in fact.

It is simply incredible the superhuman powers of recovery she showed. Even Wolverine and the X-Men would be jealous 😂

If governments don’t stick to manifestos & start trying to implement dozens of laws not in manifestos we ought to be able to remove them! And demand a new election

[Sharron Davies HoL MBE @sharrond62]

I do not feel sorry for any of them. I feel sorry for the pensioners who lost their winter fuel payments, the waspi women, the farmers inc those who committed suicide rather than not be able to pass their family farms on, the 1000s & 1000s of people who have lost their jobs as companies fold, the children removed from their schools & friends… non of it raising money for Britain, just tasty student envy politics & economic illiteracy

[J.K. Rowling @jk_rowling]

If you believe free speech is for you but not your political opponents, you're illiberal.

If no contrary evidence could change your beliefs, you're a fundamentalist.

If you believe the state should punish those with contrary views, you're a totalitarian.

If you believe political opponents should be punished with violence or death, you're a terrorist.

[J.K. Rowling @jk_rowling]

Bravo, @Keir_Starmer, for getting in an Adviser on Women and Girls who thinks the definition of women and girls includes men and boys. That'll definitely win back people who believe Labour's a party for smug, lanyard-wearing, luxury-belief-espousing cultural elitists. 1/2
