Do poor people end up paying the most tax? | Will Self on Elon Musk and Akshata Murty

Business secretary Kwasi Kwarteng told Times Radio that his energy strategy will bring down bills in a few years time, by ramping up renewables and bringing nuclear to the forefront.
The government failed to include insulation and fracking in their plan. Should they have been addressed?
On Times Radio Breakfast, Kwasi Kwarteng also defended Rishi Sunak's response to questions over his wife's non-domicile status saying the Chancellor is "totally" right.
From celebrating opening the latest Tesla gigafactory in Berlin with a fetishist night out to becoming the Twitter's biggest single shareholder - with ambitions to get humans on Mars - is mega-rich entrepreneur Elon Musk trying to take over the world?
Will Self and Rachel Sylvester answer these questions with Stig Abell and Kate McCann.

SMR is the answer to nuclear electricity generation. Forget about having a few large reactors. We should decentralise nuclear power and have hundreds of SMRs, so electricity is generated and used locally, as well as being on the national grid.

there are a ton of extremely successful people who are dyslexic, have adhd/add and the combination of those. there’s a smaller number who are very successful and are bipolar. but asperger’s syndrome is another thing altogether. their prognosis includes that the majority will never having a close friend, a successful relationship or maintain long term employment. i find elon musk tiresome but adore greta thunberg, the celebratory representations of asperger’s. they are both actually changing the world. we must recognize both the challenges and opportunities that a better understanding of neural diversity and then reshape our ideas of education and career support. some of the best ideas that are out of the mainstream emanate from unique individuals.

“Energy” is synonymous with petro chemicals which are deeply intergrated into how the world is (mis)run. I think these guests have intellects greater than that of the whole cabinet combined.
