Yeah I also saw it, he clearly has a shock collar on the dog and the dog clearly reacts to him going for it.

Furthermore, what was he even annoyed at the dog for in the first place, for moving out of his camera view? Pets aren't props.

You don't have to ignore reality just because he sometimes says things you agree with. This kind of parasocial relationship is deeply pathetic.

I dunno, I agree with a lot of things he says but I watched that video with the dog and it looks pretty clear to me that he did have a shock collar on the dog.

He may not have actually pressed it on screen, but he moved his hand to it and the dog knew exactly what that meant and you could see it in the reaction.

The fact he seemingly wants to force an animal to sit in the corner like an ornament for his stream in the first place is also particularly problematic.

That all being said, I don't think he should be banned from the UK and Elon should be banned and his businesses banned.

I've been sick the last few days, still sick today. Could be flu could be COVID. Same thing happened last year, I was too busy with work to go get a free vaccine (I'm entitled for health reasons) and I ended up going down with it.

This year, gone down before I even got the text that this years was available, come to think of it, still no text.

It's been rough, I'm still suffering, so I defo recommend you all get it.

nationalising trains

Sorry, but no, they haven't. Some franchies expired and returned to state ownership, which was a Tory policy and several TOC's reverted under them.

sort of) nationalising steel

No they haven't.

nationalising a part of our energy sector

Again, no they haven't, GB Energy whatever the fuck it actually is, is not nationalising energy.

If they had actually done those things, then yes they might be in the win column.

bringing the NHS back under direct public control

Total vague nonsense, how's outcomes doing? No real change?

ending various tax-dodging loopholes, such as the IHT for farmers and non-dom taxes

They chickened out on that and for me, it's not nearly enough and exactly shows the problem with Keir Starmer and his boring pussy arsed government. IHT should be like 100% over a certain amount, there should be no generational wealth. He should be making that case and it would certainly set him apart from Farage and company.

windfall tax on energy companies

Probably the first one we can unambiguously say 'ok' on.... Though of course, not really because the energy windfall tax was a Tory policy from 2022 and all they did was increase the rate from 35% to 38%.

I really cannot be arsed to go through the rest, but suffice to say.

Bullshit mate.

They are just scapegoating Mone, and it will amount to a slap on the wrist in any case. She should be in prison with all her assets seized, imo. The fact the law is okay with destroying poor people's lives over vastly smaller sums just says everything about this society.

Mone’s PPE Medpro was given about £200m in govt contracts. Ayanda was given £252m in contracts. It’s the family office of a Tory advisor. They had no history in PPE and were given the contract because of politics links.

We paid a quarter of a billion for masks that were found to be defective and had to be burnt, also at taxpayer expense. Ayanda is not in court.

That's just the tip of the iceberg, that VIP lane was just legalised corruption and they have already gotten away with it.
