Let's start by talking about Nigel Farage. One of the things that you've tweeted in the last day or so, you said,
00:07
quote, it took one meeting for Musk to see straight through Farage. I just want to know, what do you think he saw that he didn't like?
00:16
Well, I think Farage is an opportunist and a chancer. He has no great intellectual capacity whatsoever.
00:26
He just rants and makes a lot of noise, but he's got no intellectual capacity to analyse policies or situations.
00:39
And he's intellectually very lightweight, and I think he's politically very lightweight,
00:46
although he has actually a record of achievements of winning elections with minor parties.
00:52
Whether Musk, who must have huge intellectual resources as well as financial resources,
01:02
just met him and decided this man was too lightweight to be a partner, I don't know, but I suspect that's what happened.
