The European Union is an economic bloc with both GDP and population to rival the USA’s (they’re both slightly higher). It is slowly waking up to the new strategic realities of the world on defence, too.

Not hard to see why many Europeans don’t see Elon’s posts as the kind concern on a friend.

1. Set up an account with someone like Hargreaves Lansdown. Put in money. Press buy.

2. You can sell bonds easily if you need the money. There's a very liquid market.

Do something bold!

There are loads of people who have suggested why Westminster doesn't work and suggested sensible reforms, pick something and reap the rewards

Instead, they go "huh, lots of people seem to be using salary sacrifice schemes, let's end those" because Labour seems determined not to try to change anything major – or even moderate – but instead is set on tinkering around the edges.
