Summary
Elon Musk has called on King Charles III to dissolve the UK Parliament, citing past controversies involving Prime Minister Keir Starmer and the Rotherham Scandal.
Musk accused Starmer of inaction during his tenure as head of the Crown Prosecution Service and urged a new general election, drawing backlash for spreading misinformation.
Critics argue that the monarchy lacks the unilateral power to dissolve Parliament under the 2022 Dissolution and Calling of Parliament Act.
Musk’s growing political involvement globally, including support for right-wing parties, has sparked calls for regulation against foreign interference.
As a Brit I think Elon Musk should fuck off meddling in ours and other countries politics.
I also think that King Charles should dissolve the monarchy as it’s sickening to have such a thing in 2025.
People often say but tourism. The fact is France gets many more visitors a year than Britain and they got rid of their monarchy. We could make more turning Buckingham Palace into a bougie hotel for instance.
Can you tour bukingham palace?
Small sections.
As an American (and ashamed of it), can we give Elongated Muskrat back to South Africa?
I don’t think that’d be very fair to South Africans.
I think Elon Musk should fuck off meddling in ours and other countries politics.
He illegally immigrated into the US, it’s quite literally his MO
Critics argue that the monarchy lacks the unilateral power to dissolve Parliament under the 2022 Dissolution and Calling of Parliament Act.
Is that what “critics” argue about?
How about the massive South African white elephant in the room:Why the fuck should Charles even acknowledge Musk’s noises?
They’re manufacturing consent for the plutocracy — that has always owned politics — instead of doing what one would expect in a democracy… bringing in a psychiatrist to explain the mental illness indicators Musk is very obviously displaying.
I wouldn’t be surprised if he has a brain tumor. He’s obviously fucked in the head in many more ways than one, and none of them are “normal”.
Too much money, like Michael Jackson and so many others.
Boatloads of drugs and yesmen too.
You can’t blame the drugs lots of high people not interfering with another countries government calling for fascism.
Well do the usual drug enjoyer have the possibility to interfere in foreign politics?
I’m pretty sure you’d be surprised about the “adults” you wouldn’t think who are out there enjoying drugs.
He’s obviously fucked in the head in many more ways than one
Aren’t all leaders?
For politicians, it takes a particular mindset to think you’re the solution to other people’s problems and run for any election. I instantly distrust people who thrust themselves in the limelight and propose to rule others for their own good.
As for CEO’s, it’s very well known that a disturbing percentage of them display psychopathic traits.
I urge the US electorate to dissolve Elon Musk in a vat of acid
Bleach. Preferably warm. Basic solutions are better at dissolving fatty tissues.
Basic problems require basic solutions
Lye.
Has the benefit of making soap, so he’d finally be useful for something.
We would truly love to.
Good god, I am so tired of hearing about this cringey edge lord.
Musk: destabilizes world governments by giving a platform for extreme right wing views and interference in foreign affairs
Internet: lol cringe

Don’t thee fascists usually end up being executed as well though?

If ridicule worked we wouldn’t need the executions.

Agreeing with your summary of his actions and calling him cringey are not mutually exclusive
So skibidi
Tell him to fuck right off, preferably.
I mean, if the king really wants to become beloved of the people he should indeed make a visit to parliament, and request they dissolve Musk’s UK holdings.
There is a 23 billion blackhole in the budget so we’re told. I think a one off tax of just 10% on Musk based on his total global net worth could be in order.
Bold of you to assume the royals care about the economy
Royals don’t set taxes.
How about dissolve musk?
To paraphrase another King "Will no one rid us of this turbulent billionaire?
*turdulent
Well, he has sausage fingers, but he can still do something like what Mummy likely would have done if some South African upstart tried to tell her what to do:
Even amongst Britain’s right leaning folk this is a pretty stupid take…
I was going to make a joke about how King Charles should dissolve Elon in a vat of acid, but I’m not sure if that’s comes off as promoting violence in our current climate of oligarchicide.
Since this is advice given to a monarch by a person who otherwise has no impact on the rich and powerful, I’d argue you could call this a case of Jester’s Privilege
We should bring that back. If nothing I do matters, then nothing I say matters, right?
It would definitely be skirting the line of what we would moderate, but I think we’d probably let it go just because it’s a comic book villain ending rather than saying “shoot him in the head” or whatever.
Plus, it would obviously be a joke.
Edit: all I can picture is this, but with Elon’s face on it.
You see … I think of this
I guess it helps that I was not a fan of that show.
I think Luig[MESSAGE CONTENTS CORRUPTED]usk.
Musk should fuck off back to South Africa.
So, technically, the monarchy signed over the majority of executive power to Parliament with the Parliament Act 1911 which gives authority over taxation and budgets to Parliament.
But bills do also technically still require Royal Assent, which has not been withheld since 1708.
So… the Crown COULD try to force an impasse where nothing can pass without their approval, but then Parliament COULD make the Crown live off canned beans.
Can someone get Lord Sugar drunk and have him express a similar view about the US?
“err, hic the unites, uniting, united states should separism, seapar, separate the head of state role from the, ,uhh, head of government. They can have gonger, er, congress appoint a cereminimum, er ceremonial head of state with reserve powers to dissolve congress… burp”
If I was Charles, I’d offer Elon Musk a knighthood to piss him off.
Musk would have to choose between stoking his gigantic ego with the title at the cost of giving up any post in the federal government as per article I, section 9, clause 8 of the U.S. Constitution or humiliate himself and refuse the title to keep running the orange utan he’s invested billions in.
He’d take the knighthood then have the rules changed to suit himself
without the consent of the Congress, accept of any present, emolument, office, or title, of any kind whatever, from any king, prince, or foreign state.
He’d just buy enough congress people to get it passed.
I doubt that would work.
All Trump would do would be to make his post an unpaid advisory one and then he’d get to insist people call him Sir Elon.
It’s not like he needs the paycheck or the benefits and he would love the ego boost.
Or he’d just do exactly the same as he was going to do anyway, it’s not like anyone stopped him hiring his own family members in blatant disregard for the law, why would this be any different?
Very true. I keep saying the same thing about other things and I should have realized this applies as well.
You act like th US cares about what the US constitution says.
It’s called an Honorary Knighthood - for non UK citizens.
Time for some right wing infighting.
