Is Rishi Sunak Bonkers..?

[gulliver1]

Tory rich Rishi .Chuckling along with Elton Musk about AI killing off everyones jobs, told Musk he wanted Brits to be risk-takers and not be afraid to give up the security of a regular pay cheque.  What Planet are these mega rich pair living on .

.............Elton Musk wealth 225 billion USD..........

..............Rishi Sunaks wealth £730 Million............

From your post it sounds like they have simply shifted to the political left. Get AI to do the jobs, tax the business owners who now accumulate more £££s having reduced staff levels & costs, pay it back out in welfare payments to those no longe employed and on 100% leisure time. What's not to like ?

You're wrong about Mr and Mrs Sunak's wealth- they lost £ 200m last year so now only worth £ 529 million.   Tough at the top.

Britains super rich  Prime Minister Rishi says he wants the country to replicate the entrepreneurial culture of places like "Silicon Valley" Where people are unafraid to give up the security of a regular pay cheque ,and go and start something up ,and be comfotable with failure.You've got to be comfortable with failing and knowing that's just part of the process. ...Yes Mr Sunack you and your Tory Cronies will know all about Failure at The next GE.

Here is the super rich Pm "Governing a Country that is teetering in permacrisis ,  part accidental but mostly of the governments own making .suffering from Austerity ,.... Brexit and.. Maladministration after having Four Prime ministers and five Chancellors in five years"

With every day that passes I think less and less of the wee fella.

I wonder if he went for the job just to get him out of the house.

[anneasquith]

I believe he applied because he just wanted ' a bit of company ' !!

Hymie, Must agree . This pair make the great train robbers look like amatures but these two got away with it.

I think Mr Sunak is like all politicians, he wants to be seen as inventive and forward-looking, with initiatives for the good of the country.

The fact that his initiatives are based on seriously dubious premises - such as stopping the production of pretrol cars by 2035, and now using the latest sexy sbject - AI - to sound cutting edge, even though his notion is untried and highly likely to fall over within a very short time.

I believe the electorate would applaud any PM who is seen to be trying to address the issues that affect them directly - energy bills, taxes, the education and health services.

People are far more interested in those points than the idea that they may be able not to be able to afford a driverless car which no-one appears to actually want anyway.

I look forward to hearing that they are 'comfortable' with it then!

Hi Gulliver

Re. OP.  He has to be bonkers expecting that forcing the unwilling/unable to study maths until 18 will do anything except cause huge trouble in schools and  cause disaffection amongst the arts-biased  kids.  He doesn't understand people.  He's just confirmed this.

It's a strange world we've created where we can get robots to do all the work, and that's somehow a bad thing.

I think Musk means well but he's lived so long in a bubble of massive wealth and nonsense that he doesn't make much sense any more. Just look at what he's named his children.
