Tech boss was addressing the ‘unite the kingdom’ protest organised by Tommy Robinson via video link

Elon Musk has called for a “dissolution of parliament” and a “change of government” in the UK while addressing the crowd attending the “unite the kingdom” rally, organised by the far-right activist Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, known as Tommy Robinson.

The X owner, who dialled in via a video link and spoke to Robinson while thousands of attenders watched along, also railed against the “woke mind virus” and told the crowd that “violence is coming” and that “you either fight back or you die”.

Speaking at the rally, he said: “I really think that there’s got to be a change of government in Britain. You can’t – we don’t have another four years, or whenever the next election is, it’s too long. Something’s got to be done. There’s got to be a dissolution of parliament and a new vote held.”

    The (not) funny thing is that money is not worth anything objectively, we give it value. We could decide the own nothing.

      Great point and one I always refer to as well … money and wealth only exist because we all believe it to have value and purpose.

      It’s a modern day religion that only exists because we all put our faith and belief in it all.

      And just like every ancient faith and belief … if one day enough of us or all of us stop believing in it, all that wealth and power just evaporates and means nothing.
