Lord Owen backs Elon's Musk's intervention in global politics

[@VA-lo4ul]

There are idiots on both sides of the Atlantic.

[@KSzkodaGames]

Foreign Intervention in British Politics shoulds always be banned because its a breach of democracy, otherwise its like saying Russia can interfere British Politics no matter what.

[@henryburton6529]

100% - people were upset about unelected bureaucrats. Unelected billionaires are 100x more dangerous and corrupt

[@JurassicRod]

Normally I would agree but we're at a point we need foreign intervention as our government and police do not care about or listen to us. We can't vote our way out of it as both parties are as bad. The media just push propaganda and gaslight us.

[@NoWindNoSunNoPower]

But it’s OK for Labour to send 100 activists to America to support Cackala.

[@EloiseB2025]

​@@NoWindNoSunNoPower not one of those Labour activists was offered 100m afterwards. So if it's not okay for Labour two tier nigel shouldn't have been there either then?

[@EloiseB2025]

Ever think it strange how all the accounts who bring up the Labour activists forget to mention farage was over there paid for by an unnamed donor? Their hypocrisy is astounding.

[@rayneary4371]

another reason why the house of lords needs to go

[@sulaak]

Lord Owen is 86, and he still looks well balanced and articulate.

[@MKSense1]

And he talks BS.

[@mikejarrett6144]

I wonder how David Owen would feel if Musk was trolling him when he was in Government ? He was always an arrogant minister and he would have been the first to whinge .

[@EloiseB2025]

Indeed but I've just listened and he didn't once say he supported Melon's meddling. Just said it's important the issue with China is addressed.

[@MKSense1]

Well , he is old and have no logic and consistence .

[@EloiseB2025]

Is your headline intentionally misleading? Because I've just listened to him and not once did he say he backed Melon's meddling.

[@just_another32]

we live in the age of clickbait. sucks doesn't it...

[@callmebeth]

He did say that he believed that the Trumpet should listen to Melon

[@lixter13]

"Melon" 😂😂

[@zefski8955]

Headline is correct. Owen says that Trump is "quite right to listen to him" (Elon) @ 5:17

[@AaronTheGreat________]

Haha u people are hilarious someone u don’t like u start calling him names 😂 “melon” cringey Brits 😂

[@wiseget-f7e]

Elon is upsetting and make cry all the right people!😂😂😂

[@davidware9549]

He ain’t no lord in the eyes of the people so no point he having that title that’s like burning our flag and laughing !

[@GlennMabey]

Maybe get some better quality guests with up to date knowledge. This is low grade broadcasting.

[@Jaysonmarky]

Haha my thoughts exactly darling

[@clundgeweep]

Not to mention Phillips' incoherent, bumbling "interviewing" style.

[@rkdaltry2022]

David Owen has zero credibility for anything …overrated in the extreme

[@alexhenderson1312]

He was the ultimate crypto-Tory grifter and Blairite before Blair!

[@danmayberry1185]

The 2016 vote for self-imposed trade sanctions tends to limit one's choices in dealing with new trade tarrifs.

[@alanrogers9597]

Lord Owen,,,, didn't he bolt when things got too tough ?

[@VerbalKint74]

Yes, he helped form the SDLP with Woy Jenkins, Shirley Williams and Bill Rogers.

[@Nel-xb2gk]

Hard to believe any British would be on Musk side, let alone a Lord.

[@kriskalpa]

why?

[@blushadow1726]

In any other time period in our history these people would be classed as traitors for supporting an outside foreign force against our on democratically elected leader. Farage and his cult have got a lot to answer for.

[@leftmodernist5210]

It’s actually cruel dragging this man out in his dotage and treating us to the half formed thoughts of his declining brain

[@mus3504]

lol

[@blushadow1726]

Of course, sky news put this bloke on because it's about Musk, but the interview before him was with the chair woman for businesses in the UK and she was talking about the dreaded Brexit elephant in the room. So, of course avoid her interview that actually matters and give this Musk rubbish more air time.

Tesla: Valued at 150 times earnings. Price to Book: 20 to 1. If anyone out there wants to write me a 5 year Put Option at a strike of $300, I'll take them. I have a suspicion that the can of worms that is Tesla will soon be opened.

[@Mo0n1111]

Why does Europe continue to bow down to America, there are other places we can find resources from, may not be the ideal scenario but it surely is better than watching Europe collapse in order for America to rise… perhaps is time to lose the ego and apply some logic

[@robinbaby1971]

To label him "Lord" is a total insult!😤

[@ldf4064]

Unelected Lord Owen.

[@Pacheanno]

We want Starmer out

[@Soul_of_a_Robot]

And swap for who...Farage who's in thrall to Trump? Badenough?

[@lixter13]

Starmer is the better of the two evils rn. Elon/Tate/Farage would be the biggest mistake of our time.

[@blushadow1726]

Yeah, let's get rid of the person trying to sort out the past 14 years of Tory chaos, and put in even more chaos, lies and disinformation with Farage and Tice, great idea. Remember, there would be no need for higher taxes if we weren't losing a hundred and forty billion in GDP due to Brexit, and hundreds of billions in lack of investment due to Brexit. This is the fault of people who voted to make us all poorer and to damage our country.

[@andrewdobson813]

I can remember the situation in 1976. The present situation is not comparable in any way. This is a non-story based on an interview with a ridiculous attention-seeking has been. Incidentally the gnomes of Zurich remark was made by George Brown in 1964 not Private Eye. Trevor Phillips should be ashamed of himself.

Vote for Reform and make the UK a wholly owned subsidiary of the Trump Organisation.

No. Trump didn't make America great again in 2016. He won't in 2024. If only voters weren't so gullible.
