Elon Musk needs to be stopped.
After he fanned the flames of racial division in the UK last summer, I warned that he was one of the most dangerous men on the planet.
Armed with billions and driven by hatred, it is time we confront Musk's hateful rhetoric, not pander to it.

Delighted to have been interviewed on BBC Radio Scotland by the excellent Len Pennie about 'PAPER PORTRAITS', the film I've written and directed for the Penicuik Community Arts Association. Penicuik was once among the biggest paper making towns in the UK.

Nigel farage wants you to think that Britain has an immigration problem.
It doesn't.
Britain had a problem with millionaires hoarding wealth, egged on by politicians and the press.
Britain has a problem with racism.
Britain has a @Nigel_Farage problem.
RT if you agree.
