The British countryside is a national treasure. Its beauty is maintained by farmers. No drama. Timeless beauty. Constantly renewed.

It was NEVER about protecting children

There's no way to ban under 16s without age verifying everyone, which means ID checks or face scans to log on for every adult in the country. Thats the actual prize here, ID locking the whole internet and ending anonymity, and "for the children" is just the trojan horse to sell it. Parents can already keep their kids off social media, they dont need a surveillance state to do it for them.

Why are they always like this ?

Elon created $1 trillion of value. Congress created $39 trillion of debt. Elon’s wealth is not the problem…

If I give $1000 to Elon the Trillionaire I will probably multiply my money. If I give that same $1000 to my $7 trillion government, my money will disappear and the government will demand more of my money or else.

I don’t think Billy Woods and I are related, but, dear Lord, I wish we were.

Can’t stop the youth from using nostr…

I’ll take the trillionaire visionary who creates wealth for tens of millions of people, over the millionaire politicians who loot that wealth for themselves.

Yes

What a sad life Ed Milliband has. All the problems that are going on in this World right now & all he’s concerned about is Tumble Dryers, Under Floor Heating & Heated Towel Rails. The man’s mad. What’s the betting this hypocrite has all 3 of these in his homes.

Only days after the attempted beheading of a man in Belfast, I've woken up to the terrible news of another savage stabbing a 17 year old girl in the throat in Burnley.. I believe Burnley is an active part of the nationwide City of Sanctuary movement, operating locally as the Burnley City of Sanctuary Network welcoming asylum seekers. You couldnt make it up..

RT @ArchRose90: Horrific. A 30-year-old man has been arrested after attempting to stab a 17-year-old girl in neck in Burnley. Completely un…

The world's clean energy transition represents a colossal expansion of the world's mining industry. To catch a diffuse energy source like sunlight or wind needs an unprecedented volume of physical machinery. A single solar farm requires roughly 30 times more total metal infrastructure than a conventional gas plant. We aren't moving away from mining; we're swapping enormous oceanic drilling rigs for vast open-cut metal mines. The demand for heavy mining and rare earths is just as compelling as the downstream e-waste crisis, but the numbers are even more staggering. While solar cells rely heavily on high-purity silicon, silver, and copper, the broader 'green infrastructure' ecosystem demands far more. The EV motors, wind turbines and massive national grids required to tie intermittent solar together are entirely dependent on an unprecedented surge in heavy mining and rare earth extraction. This physical mining demand has simply exploded with the shift from conventional fossil fuel energy generation to wind and solar. Because wind and sunshine are so diluted and diffused, harvesting them requires a massive physical footprint, necessitating endless extra acres of complex machinery. This translates into heavily vandalised landscapes and grotesque coastal settings. According to the IEA, replacing them world's fossil-fuel system with renewables increases the total volume of materials requiring extraction and handling by a factor of 10. Solar alone is exceptionally copper-intensive, using roughly 850 kg per megawatt for intricate grid connections, inverters and cabling. Renewable energy is projected to drive 45% of total global copper demand by 2030. Yet, developing a new major copper mine takes an average of 16 years from initial discovery to first production. The world faces a massive demand spike for a metal where the supply chain is notoriously slow, costly, and inflexible. Solar panels don't use much in the way of rare earths, but wind turbines and the electric vehicle motors that back up the low-carbon shift are hungry for permanent magnets made from neodymium, praseodymium and dysprosium. Processing these elements involves intensive chemical leaching that produces vast amounts of toxic and radioactive wastewater. Compounding the problem, China controls roughly 60–70% of the extraction and up to 90% of the refining for these specific elements. This has created a massive geopolitical bottleneck. Image: this massive chasm is the Bingham Canyon Mine (also called the Kennecott Copper Mine) just outside Salt Lake City, Utah. It is one of the largest man-made excavations on Earth and the deepest open-pit mine in the world, stretching 4 kilometres wide and more than a kilometre deep.

Everyone should ASPIRE to be like @elonmusk and change the entire world for the better. @SenWarren is a socialist, grifter, who wants to tax the success of innovators.

I didn't read sci-fi novels all my life to want a company like SpaceX to fail.

So this had nothing to do with protecting children and was just about censorship.

If a pregnant monkey murdered her own child scientists would study that monkey. If a male monkey cut off his pecker and pretended to be a female monkey, scientists would study that monkey. If some monkeys refused to go get their own bananas and just expected free bananas from other monkeys, scientists would study that monkey. But when humans do it, we just call them Democrats.

£240m…….. That’s the entire new SFI budget Defra reckons Britain’s farmers are worth, and Window 1 will be gone in minutes. Defra’s own payroll? £1.8bn a year. Over seven times more spent on the staff than on the farmers actually growing the food. So here’s a real saving Labour, scrap Defra altogether. Sack the lot, bank the billions, and drop the pretence any of this was ever about backing British farming. £240m says you were never serious ☹️ @reformparty_uk @UKLabour @TheFarmingForum @agricontract @loosecollie @wheat_daddy

European politicians hate Elon Musk because they’re a class of self-important achievement-free globalist party hacks and middle managers who have been promoted far above their ability, and he treats them with the contempt they deserve.
