Yes, let's publicly announce we intend to rob and destitute a Billionaire who not only has tons of resources, public sway since more people trust Twitter with community notes than the mainstream media, and who's space business is so important, I wouldn't be surprised if the Deep State including Mossad has a 'do not interfere with' sticker on his file.
I can't tell if the UK establishment is just retarded or so delusional with copium to believe they STILL have massive influence and power?
There is more chance that the minister that gets close ends up dead in a 'freak accident'...
Ukraine is dependent on Starlink, a lot of the satellite launches are dependent on Space X. Simply by supplying a dependable service, a lot of the deep state would rather wack the ones trying to mess with Musk's business than risk finding a new provider.
This whole exchange pretty much sums up the conflict of interest between the realist and ideological sides of the establishment. Britain's Liberal Democrats are the ultimate idealists, so convinced of the moral rightness of liberal internationalism that they've never understood they're just the pawns of a much more cynical, corrupt, self-interested power group. Add to that their desperation as they realize that even most of their own population think they're wrong, and it's no surprise they're acting out like this.
I know how I'd feel as an American about a government that makes personal threats towards me on the floor of their Parliament. If I had the money Elon does, I'd be fomenting a f***ing color revolution in their country by daybreak...
If I were Elon, I'd be shipping 3d printers to anyone in the UK who asks for one, free of charge, all while strongly hinting that completely 3d printable firearms are available at certain places.
How strange that he singles out Musk and X and not Facebook or Bluesky.
I assume he is 100% honest and not partisan in the least.

Reminder of this one dumbfounding fact:
This is an opposition party. This is how they choose to capitalise on the flatlining approval of Keir Starmer.
Well one advantage of being a third rate opposition party is that you can promise the moon and never have to worry about having to deliver & govern.
here's the best part. tell them to fuck off.
This is america, not cuckland.
Lib Dems still trying to stay relevant I see. Never going to happen after they torpedoed all their credibility cozying up with the Tories.
Yep, that tracks with the Libdems.
For as much as I dislike them, their old leader, Farron actually had the spine to stand up for what he believed in and thus resigned.

Wouldn't even have to do that. One of their own (Luty) already literally wrote the book on making guns with widely available tools.
how about you host a migrant or 30 in your house instead of mouthing off
You're going to try and compel a foreign citizen to be dragged into Parliament?
The LibDems appear to be the actual tories who are trying to re-assert the Empire.
I demand that the UK be carpet nuked. It's the only way to be sure.
