Elon Musk says Tesla won't build a motorcycle because "motorcycles are unsafe, you might get hit by a truck".

Translation: it's actually trucks that are unsafe, but they impose their danger on others.

My feelings on this…

1. You want people to buy EVs over petrol/diesel? End the fuel duty freeze!

2. Don’t discount private vehicles. Invest in #PublicTransport and #ActiveTravel instead. Build it and they will come.

3. End the subsidy on aviation fuel.

There is something wrong with Bluesky. No matter how much I tell it to show me fewer posts about Scottish independence, the more posts it shows me and the more rabid they seem to be. I actually have some sympathy with the cause, but it's showing me the maddest nationalist nonsense it can now.

Reform is a Limited Company

Farage owns 53%

It was formed in 2019 to push for a “no-deal Brexit”

It wants to reintroduce the Liz Truss budget

It wants to privatise the NHS

It’s a scam

You can always spot a far right winger because they are rank amateurs, always prone to the most colossal but simple mistakes.

You have to survive on self belief to occupy that position politically anyway.
