Big eejit Musk needs Bishop Brennan-style kick for butting in..

THERE'S a once-in-a-lifetime, golden opportunity for some Irish politician to become an international hero by doing a Bishop Brennan on Elon Musk, with a good kick up the arse.

We're talking symbolically of course, although, it would be big box office if Leo Varadkar did actually go down to Twitter HQ in Dublin, point out a bit of skirting board to Musk and give him an almighty kick, Fr Ted style (while Micheal Martin got it on camera).

In case you missed it, the world's richest, and possibly saddest, man has once again been interfering in Irish politics, questioning our proposed hate speech legislation.

Having spent $40billion on Twitter, only to reduce its value to about a fiver and a chicken supper in the space of a few months, the genius behind the electric car brand Tesla has now branched out into threatening actual countries with legal action if they dare to do something he doesn't like.
