I don't think he can do that legally in our country. Someone was saying there's a legal impediment to him actually doing that as a foreign citizen. He's rich, he can get around it. Yeah, look, he obviously had a big effect on Trump winning. I don't think there's a question of that. No, I think Elon's allowed to do what he likes. He's a free citizen. But would it help the UK politics to have that

position well he would balance it out because at the moment labor certainly have a lot more money coming in than the tories in the last election so i look they all take money from people right some take money from very dodgy people indeed uh all of us pretend we hate it but it carries on on both sides if they all want to give up all outside donations fine if they can't really afford to do that if the conservatives are as dead in the water as people think in the uk is reform where

Formed in a very, very good position. I mean, Kemi Badenoch's got to do something pretty radical and pretty quickly with the Conservative Party. Or my prediction would be that Farage may well end up being the next Prime Minister, as Elon Musk has said. I don't think that's a mad idea at all. But he might be by then running a Conservative Party which has had reform flip into it.

We have a very mediocre tier of politicians now. I mean, you go back to the Thatcher years and their cabinets, just packed full of very smart people. Tony Blair's cabinet, for the first two terms in particular, incredibly smart people. People like Gordon Brown, as Charles said, just unbelievably brilliant brains. So I think that's certainly true.
