I think I loathe Geldorf probably about twice as much as I do Musk - and I detest Musk. Gelfdorf is a posturing pr i ck of the very worst sort.

I never understood how it was that musicians and other entertainers sometimes think they are the fking oracle that we should all be listening to. Even the most vacuous of ex footballers do it - that riff raff who used to present Match of the Day for example. Him with the big nose and jug ears. I won't even say his name.

This man is NOT a comedian, well not professional. He is actually one of the parliamentary members for Kerry, as is his brother beside him. Now you see what we are up against here! :)
So he would throw Zelensky under a bus because Ukraine not in the USA's turf?
I can understand Trump wants a quick deal so he's prepared to give Putin some ground but so far, Trump hasn't thrown Zelensky under a bus.

So "successful", so "green", but No profits, just Subsidies.
Something fishy? :)
Tesla does in the west. Their gross margin is about 17%, higher than any other car manufacturers.

No different from any other group of people, like the opinion expressing members here. At least the entertainers are mostly good at what they do, unlike the cyclists here who apparently need assistance.

Even the most vacuous of ex footballers do it - that riff raff who used to present Match of the Day for example. Him with the big nose and jug ears. I won't even say his name.
Gary Lineker is the best presenter by far in his field. "With 33 million viewers last season across the Premier League and FA Cup, Match of the Day remains part of the staple diet of football fans who still get a huge buzz from hearing that iconic theme tune on a Saturday night," the BBC said.

He is still presenting Match of the Day and will continue to do so until the end of the season. He will also lead the BBC's coverage of the next World Cup and continue to lead their live coverage of the FA Cup.

Obviously his nose and ears are no impediment to his success, except perhaps to those like yourself who don't even watch Match of the Day.

So +Tariff, - Rebate, - Free Road Tax, - Free Charging..
First they came for Tesla, but I said nothing, coz I didn't drive one,
Then they came for...
We just don't know what Trump is doing one day to the next.
What we do know though, electric transport will reduce pollution, and is clearly the next logical step when we produce enough green electricity and not have to burn fossil fuels. That justifies a little help to kickstart EVs. Eventually, EVs will be mainstream and have to pay taxes like older cars.

Good News
They were able to shift the 480ton DIESEL Generators from South Dublin Dock to Intel in North Dub thru phoenix park.
Apparently they were moved thru the city at night by Allely, an English haulage Co. How they got around the bridge weight limit, is not known. Did they reinforce it or just pay brown envelopes to overload it, and cross fingers?
Anyway, fire up the liquid coal lads, need the extra juice to turn the useless windmills, with chips! :)

People watch MOD in spite of Lineker, not because of him. Football fans hate him.

False attribution of cause and effect in terms of ratings figures and particular presenters, has probably led to the vast salaries some of these entitled dick heads are being paid.

People like the Jug eared clown, and Emily Maitliss, to name but two of the BBC's vastly over-paid, and super entitled, left wing gob***ts, who think they are entitled to insult and outrage a significant part of the UK population by venting on their personal political opinions, rather than just getting on with the job of presenting, need to be brought up sharp and stopped.

Geldorf is another one. I well remember him waving two fingers at the concerns of fishermen while grandstanding on a barge on the Thames at the time of the referendum.

Maitliss was so entitled that she could not accept that it was unreasonable for her to pour out a poisonous diatribe about Cummings. Cummings left London because he was being threatened at his own home in London where crowds were gathering. He has an autistic son and his wife was ill. He felt it coming on himself and they could have ended up in a London louse unable to care for their son, while under siege by people who hated them. They went to Durham where his family live and care could be provided. There was a clear permission to ignore the rule to stay at home in such a circumstance. It was explicitly allowed to leave to attend to such care needs.

When criticised by the BBC for her polemic, Maitliss was outraged, and soon left the BBC. Good riddance. I cancelled my TV license over the Jug Eared one. When told to pull in his horns on Twatter he more or less put up two fingers to his bosses and got away with it.

And he's obviously quite mad and unstable. Not only that, he has surrounded himself with people who hate and despise their long time allies, and who are so unreliable themselves, that they text war plans and minute by minute updates to a journalist, without even knowing they did it.


Look at Hegsketh's comments timed at 1144 ET.

He sent word to a journalist BEFORE the missile launch on Houthie terrorists that the strike was on. He needs to be gone!

Trump is predictable to a degree. Trump knows the value of money. He however equates money to intelligence. If you have lots of it, you must be intelligent. If you are richer than him, he'll respect you. The rest are just losers to him.
The problem for us is he surrounds himself with a bunch of lackeys who are conceited, rash and incompetent. You'll never know what they will mess up each day. Trump excels also in pinning any mishap on others. One thing Trump is right though. The 'elite' thought that Wall Street would be guardrail to Trump's policy on import duty. Nope. He does not care. He simply says that the stock market will look after itself. It does but on the long term, Trump's tariffs will hurt everyone.
I would much prefer we do trade deals with China and the EU than with Trump.
