For a driver born without arms, FSD Supervised is life-changing accessibility
“I was born without arms and have driven with my feet my entire life. I’m a fully licensed driver, and traditionally I drove with my left foot on the steering wheel and my right foot handling the gas and brake. My only legal restrictions are automatic transmission and power steering.
Over the years, though, the strain from my congenital birth defects has led to significant arthritis in my hips. I drove a Model 3 for the past seven years, and it honestly helped extend my independence in a huge way.
Recently upgrading to the Model Y – along with Full Self-Driving – has been a complete game changer for me.
It dramatically reduces the physical pressure and fatigue of driving and has helped preserve a level of freedom and mobility that means a great deal to me.
Most people understandably think of Tesla in terms of innovation or sustainability, but for some of us, this technology truly becomes life-changing accessibility.”
– John F.

AJBell - Voted
Robin hood - Voted
Revolut - Not voted
Revolut's automated response to my query:
"The reason for this is that we can only send out the voting invitation once Tesla issues its formal notice and sets the official record date. This process is separate for each broker, so having already voted through AJ Bell won't change when we receive that notice from Tesla for the shares you hold with us.
Please continue to keep an eye on your registered email, until about a week before November 6th. If you haven't received the voting link by then, you can check back in here, and I can confirm whether we've received the formal notice on our side."
Creating a business, building it up, making it a success - it is bloody hard work. There are no sick days, no paid holiday, no excuses. You are on call, 24/7/365. It's down to you. Sink or swim.
These are the people actually driving the economy, and they should be treated with far more respect.
Small business owners, and farmers, are THE backbone of Britain.
It's not just Labour, it was the same under the Tories. Record taxes, record incompetence - those taking the risks and generating the wealth are the ones treated with utter contempt by the establishment.
I've built countless businesses, I understand. I genuinely do. Not all of my risks have paid off, that's the nature of business! But we need to encourage people to try - that means making it worth the gamble. And it is a gamble!
There needs to be a fundamental reset of the relationship between the productive economy, and the bureaucratic monster state. Who works for who?
Who pays who's wage? All of these arrogant little men and women across public sector leadership, working from home with their comfortable salary and generous pensions. Many of whom, do quite frankly sod all. I want to know - where is the accountability? Who do they answer to?
Work with almost ANY part of the public sector - it's a joke. Long waits, massive delays, inept people. Nobody cares! They just don't care. There are good people, but they're drowned out by the overwhelming incompetence of their colleagues.
Ask anyone in business who has to deal with the public sector. You're more likely to talk to an out-of-office reply than an actual person. Don't even bother trying past 16.00 or on a Friday...
I find it so incredibly frustrating. The public sector should be there to serve and facilitate the private sector, not the reverse!
I am unashamedly pro-business, pro-success, pro-wealth creation. We must foster an environment where these principles are encouraged.
The state needs to back off - slash back its responsibilities, and focus on doing those things properly.
I am doing my best, along with my colleagues, to make these simple and obvious arguments in Parliament. Sadly, we are woefully outnumbered.
@StandardBankZA why aren't any of your international inward payment phone numbers working? No one replies to the inwards emails either. I've had a business payment waiting to be cleared for 10 days with no Request for Payment Information email. What gives?
@TeslaBoomerMama Thanks for all your hard work! I've just had a notification from AJ Bell in the UK that I can now vote my 1,500 shares (where I previously couldn't)! @ajbell is one of the largest investment firms in the UK ❤️
@elonmusk UK - 1,500 shares
Broker (AJ Bell) said "All shares are held as Crest Depository Interests (CDI's) and you don't have voting rights unless the underlying company (Tesla) contacts Crest to arrange a facility for this"
