Default As Expected, Labour Party has not invited Elon Musk to a UK Summit
[The world's richest person, Elon Musk,
has hit back after not being invited to the
UK government's International
Investment Summit.

He was not invited due to his social
media posts during last month’s riots,
the BBC understands.]

they’re releasing convicted pedophiles
in order to imprison people for social media posts,"
Mr Musk claimed on X.]

You're saying why you don't think he was invited, I was asking why he would/should have been?

Because he invests cash
like the other guests will.


Also he was talking about a UK Factory
to make his cars........

He doesn't really though. He largely uses government money, and Tesla factories are anti-union, and any employment benefits, so he's not really a match for the UK. Argentina is a better fit for him.

He's obviously not the right kind of billionaire for Labour. No freebies?

Do we have a list of who is invited, cause this sounds like labour are cutting their nose off to spite their face.

Hm, I doubt he's much worse than some of those who were invited.

politics around the world is falling apart because of people like these that are invited to provide investment. None of them do it out of the goodness of their hearts. They have an agenda. Starmer didn't receive his gifts with no pay back. Boris didn't receive gifts with no pay back. The system in america is being duplicated here and around the world

"Kiers, kiers"

"What?"


"Kiers, should we invite the worlds richest man to the International investment Summit?"


"No, no you wont. Now get out on that stage and repeat the mantra, country first, party second, until you think they believe us"

He's a grubby little chap let's face it. A Shyster/snake oil salesman. He's been very good at it, that's for sure, but ultimately he is what he is. Not someone you want round for tea.
