The NY Times - ‘0 to 1939 in 3 seconds’: Why Anti-Elon Musk Satire Is Flourishing in Britain (free link)
06 April 2025
Humor and art have been used to mock the powerful in Britain for centuries. Now Elon Musk is on the receiving end.
The mischievous posters began appearing all over London in the past two months.
On the side of an East London bus stop, one of them shows Elon Musk, the world’s richest man, emerging from a Tesla’s roof with his hand pointing upward in a straight-armed salute. “Goes from 0 to 1939 in 3 seconds,” the ad reads. “Tesla. The Swasticar.”
Another mock ad shows Mr. Musk and President Trump in front of a red Tesla with the words: “Now With White Power Steering.”
In North London, a fake movie billboard blares: “The Fast and the Führer,” with a picture of Mr. Musk saluting beside a Tesla with a DOGE license plate, a reference to the budget-slashing federal agency he currently leads on behalf of Mr. Trump. ...
There are mock car air fresheners called “Musk-B-Gone” that promise to cover “the stench of fascism.”

There seems to be an opportunity if Christopher Luxon is the business guru.
While USA is giving many nations a blood nose, and tariffs getting a bad rep.
To reach out of tough markets like Japan with more potential that we should get together.
We can send our meat and produce to you rather than USA that does not want it cos we export too much.
Japan for example made special case to take more Taiwan products when China started playing games with Taiwan exports to China.
It would seem to be a great time for a 'full court press' of trade missions to markets bloodied by Trump and finding USA unreliable that we get together and trade more amongst ourselves. The words Trump used about allies cheating, deceiving and worse were disgusting.
So, with Netanyahu heading to the US, will he be arrested to be sent to the Hague for war crimes, or is he going to be protected by Trump, as Trump only believes in the law of Trump?
i.e. Trump trumps the International Court of Justice.
