One person. One million satellites. Low-earth orbit as private infrastructure.
He already owns the social layer. He's buying the physical layer.
At some point "the sky" stops being a commons and becomes a Musk utility bill.
Boris Johnson: "Keir Starmer has made us an irrelevance on the world stage..."
Eternal rest grant unto him o Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon him. May he rest in peace . Amen.
Save the date: the Icelandic government is proposing to hold a referendum on 29 August on whether the country should restart talks to join the European Union.

If I find myself in the unfortunate situation of being trapped in a war zone, and the British government arranges a return flight, I promise I won’t immediately walk up to a news crew on landing and complain that boarding was “a bit of a shambles”.
Every journalist who interviews Farage, or has an opportunity to question him should raise this as a public service. And Parliament should act immediately to ban it. No doubt Nigel would whine, but that would just help focus public attention. There are no downsides to taking action.

And Kemi Badenoch has proved how deep she is in Trump's pocket.
It would take a heart of stone
