Found the tweet that Joyce Carol Oates bodied Elon Musk with and it's so beautiful in its eloquent, simple take down. So much so he's crashing out trying to prove he reads books now. Put this in the Louvre.

A 100 year old veteran on breakfast TV said the war wasn’t worth it: “No, I'm sorry - but the sacrifice wasn't worth the result of what it is now.”
He’s quite right. Millions of people supporting a fascist. Nothing much has changed has it?

Elon Musk is now the highest paid CEO on the planet his $100bn a year for 10 years deal is 2,500,000x the wage of his average employee
In fact it's 20x the entire wage bill for all 125,000 of Tesla's other employees
For comparison World Hunger could be cured for $37-50bn a year

Musk’s trillion dollar paycheck is not only obscene, it’s very dangerous. This spoiled brat has already bought the Whitehouse for a fascist and turned Twitter into the world’s most divisive and influential source of hate. Extreme wealth brings enormous power for this unelected

Under the last Tory government, an average of 17 prisoners were mistakenly released per month. Funny how we never heard about this, until it’s possible for the right wing media to pile on a black Labour minister.

Nigel Farage currently railing against Parliament being full of "professional politicians".
He founded UKIP in 1993 and was first elected as an MEP in 1999, twenty-six years ago. Less than 5% of current MPs (31 to be precise) have a longer career in politics than Farage. ~AA

It’s clear to anyone paying attention that Farage gets an easy ride from the media. They give him as much airtime as he wants but never hold him to account for the damage he’s done.
So much of what’s broken in Britain is thanks to Nigel Farage.

A particularly weak start to the Xmas adverts this year. Asda has pinched the Grinch and Sainsbury’s have used the BFG. No thought, no imagination, just a hell of a big bill to use other people’s ideas. Just waiting for Aldi’s pathetic carrot.

I see Farida is out of the Big Brother house and bigging herself up at full volume. Did she miss the fact that she has been voted out at the earliest opportunity, which is what happened the last time she was on the programme? Could it be she’s an irritating twat?
