Elon Musk is a duplicitous ignoramous who will do, say or tweet anything that furthers his own world dominance agenda.

Don't forget that it was the Tories who knighted Maggie Thatcher's regular Christmas dinner guest and close friend Jimmy Savile. Kemi Badenough should be careful what she wishes for methinks.

If a theory doesn't work within the current paradigms, why assume the paradigms are wrong? Maybe, just maybe, a philosophy of mind that cannot explain such things as intentionality or qualia etc is what needs amending, not the paradigms.

In a racist serfdom controlled by the offspring of slave traders for centuries, immigration is always an issue. I'm afraid it's just a brute fact that after millennia of oppression by the elite, the average gammon would rather have a paedophile prince in Buck House than a brown person next door.

The mind/body problem is only a problem for physicalists. Once you accept that only physical stuff is "real" stuff, you have a problem explaining the non-physical aspects of human existence.

I'm with Aristotle.

Maybe they regret voting to abandon their EU grant's in favour of promises from a fat lying narcissist like Boris Johnson, but are still too gammon to admit Brexit was a con perpetrated by the nazi elite.

Whilst one's basic ethical and social assumptions may remain firm, one's political agenda must either develop with real world events and challenges, or become obsolete.
