I don't think so .
He is a rich man ,he doesn't need to speak out for money at his age 
What he is saying about net zero is important and many people agree with him .

It had to be said and however much one might despise Tony Blair he is IMO right .

He has to be right on something I suppose. Shame about all the rest.

It's an interesting thought that as he is rich he doesn't need to increase that wealth. I don't think it works that way. Musk is the richest man on the planet and he is still working as is Bezos. I don't think the majority who get rich just retire - they still want more. I think what Blair really wants is to be popular again which is probably why he is now supporting a populist topic. He couldn't really start condemning mass migration or war mongering after all could he.

Yes, BLiar is rich and he doesn't need to be working in politics for a living.  He does, however, feel that he is regarded and applauded by the people, even though most of us certainly do not congratulate him.  In my opinion, he should simply be ignored and, hopefully, he will eventually disappear!

Yes, I agree with what he is saying at present, but I'd never think about voting for him.

I think some people actually like to work because they like to work .
Ie someone like David Attenborough
If you have a boring soul destroying job it's different.

Elon Musk is a strange character a uber  genius who I suspect has to be doing something .
He certainly doesn't need the dosh he's the richest man in the world .
$839 BILLION
Have you noticed he always has a child in tow?
( he has I believe 14 ) none of whom need to worry about getting a mortgage

14 - good to have a hobby I suppose. It seems he  must always be on the job  :rolleyes:
