The sentiment in the UK is not that unhinged, and the incumbents are woeful. Current UK Govt may be the major obstacle?

  Well, their car sales fell almost 60% in July, so it doesn't look like there's much pro-Musk sentiment around here. https://bmmagazine.co.uk/news/tesla-uk-sales-drop-july-2025-smmt/ https://bmmagazine.co.uk/news/tesla-uk-sales-drop-july-2025-...

    Musk is part owner of Tesla, I wasn't aware he also had connections with Audi, BMW, Jaguar Land Rover, and all the other premium brands which have also seen a steep decline in sales in Europe and the UK? Don' be fooled by your media of choice, sentiment towards Musk in the UK outside of a very niche crowd is mostly neutral.
