I'm guessing it's part of a negotiation tactic by Orbán. The EU has been withholding 'financial aid/grants' to Hungary since Orbán and his party has been moving Hungary in an Authoritarian direction. I also think there's a Hungarian bank with links to Orbán that has been sanctioned to some...

Allegedly a second explosion on an alternate route to the one reported on by Kyiv Post: @kromark

Allegedly the only railway line connecting China (and North Korea?) in this part of Russia. EDIT: Seems like there are at least one alternative route... "Ukraine’s SBU Blows Up Freight Train in Rail Tunnel Deep Inside Russia Kyiv Post sources claim that the Russians are using the railway to...

As I have understood Elon – more than 50% of workers is the metric at which he by his own admission is ready to negotiate with a union. https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/posts/7937900/

I found this opinion piece by Anders Åslund in the Kyiv Post interesting: "OPINION: Washington Defeatism: More Drivel From High-Profile US Policy Advisers Certain well-connected Washington pundits are revealing their true colors. In a screed full of contradictions and errors, Richard Haass and...

I don't know.

That part of the text is not about the total amount of mechanics on strike. That part is about how many union members that are not participating in the strike. And he doesn't want to answer that question.

Yeah... Did we read the same article?... What does this mean? "Hur många är det som strejkar? – Över hälften av alla bilmekaniker på Tesla är medlemmar hos oss, säger han. Veli-Pekka medger att det finns fackmedlemmar bland dem som fortfarande jobbar, och därmed agerar strejkbrytare. Men de...

Still seems like moving the goal posts to me.

Ok. So now it's not about the mechanics in Sweden anymore. No it's about all employees. All employees at Tesla in Sweden or worldwide? Moving the goal posts are we?

No he doesn't. I've listened to that as well. He says that he as heard of people getting one or several sms-messages. But who's sending them. He says nothing about that. For all I know it could be someone working for the Russian embassy in Sweden... If those sms-messages even exists that is...

And according to Metall's own paper Dagens Arbete, more than half of the mechanics at Tesla in Sweden are on strike. If this is indeed correct, and as I have understood Elon, then this means that Elon himself thinks that signing a Collective agreement with Metall is the correct course of action...

It seems "arrested" is a correct naval/juridical term... Not sure though if the vid. below is about the same yacht... Mar 17, 2022 Episode 56 SY News M/Y Crescent arrested in Spain! The vessel was arrested in Tarragona in which is a port near Barcelona today by Spanish authorities. [... [My u.]

What do you mean? Are you saying she used the wrong naval/juridical term?... A lot of yachts have been seized or whatever the correct naval/juridical term is.

Did Google/Youtube just fold for the Russian Dictator? Was Sergey Brin involved somehow? YouTube has blocked our investigation about Putin’s yacht. Apparently our video ‘violates harassment guidelines’ (what?!). This video had more than 5m views and led to the arrest of the yacht in Italy...

Current mood: Feeling that I've wasted way too much time on this. So don't hold your breath.

And you honestly expect me to know these things?... He stated in some media interview that the Y is his wife's car. I don't know any more than that, and I'm certainly not going to do anything at all to try and find out more about this either.

Ok all. This was 'fun'. But is it leading anywhere?... Doesn't seem like it. Therefore I'm not super inclined to continue this keyboard fight. As stated previously. I'm pro-union. Most of you doesn't seem to be. It is what it is. Over and out.

It's his wife's Model Y. Should she be forced to sell it?

We know Tesla had 289 employees in December last year. They probably have ~350 now. And that is before the so called 25K USD car and before Tesla starts selling trucks in Europe. If Tesla doesn't have to sign a Collective agreement then why should anyone else have to? If nobody signs everything...

You and I just see this differently. Again: Metall could have ~12-34 members on strike at Tesla. According to how things work in Sweden those ~12-34 members have a right to ask their union for support so that they can have their working conditions regulated in a Collective agreement. And they...

In Sweden a lot of folks are able to do just fine running a business and agreeing to a Collective agreement. You would most likely do just as well.

And what about Corporate greed? As I understand it Marry Barra's actual take-home compensation was $30.1 million in 2019 and $34.1 million in 2022... Why should she earn that amount? So who's killing GM – the workers or the management?

Again: Like I've already written in my three previous posts – it's not "the minority of Tesla employees". It's the total unionized workforce on one hand – ~4 million – and whatever the amount of non union mechanics that are working at Tesla (~95-115) on the other.

Again: It's about the entire system. The ~70% that are unionized in Sweden don't wan't this regulated through legislation. They want this regulated between the employees and the employer. And the only way to get a fair and reasonable deal that way is to organize with other employees. So it's the...

In December, 2020 Tesla Sweden had 178 employees. In December, 2021 they had 220 employees. In December, 2022 they had 289 employees. Source in Swedish: https://www.allabolag.se/5569314098/bokslut So how many employees does Tesla have today? 360? That means that Metall could have ~12-34...

The so called Swedish model is dependent on employers agreeing to enter into Collective agreements. If they don't, then the entire system will fall and everything will have to be regulated through legislation instead. So we don't focus on a single company like you guys seem to do. We look at the...

I misinterpreted handful as meaning five a the most. But it's still very, very vague. The number of mechanics on strike are at least 12. I've edited my previous posts.

Ok... I misinterpreted handful as meaning five a the most. But it's still very, very vague. The number of mechanics on strike are at least 12. handful noun an amount of something that can be held in one hand https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/handful

WRONG! Ok... Depends on the exact number specified by 'a handful'... According to Tesla themselves more than 90% of employees are still working. Source in Swedish: https://carup.se/teslas-brev-till-agarna-90-har-valt-att-jobba/#google_vignette Last month last year Tesla had 289 employees...

It seems they aren't publicly available. But I'm not an expert, so I can't guarantee that this info is 100% correct... My nick was chosen in 2012. And the 'Advocate' part was meant as proponent. I only have a 10 week introductory course at university level. And not in this part of the Swedish...

Maybe within ~50-100 km of the Danish, Norwegian and Finnish border, but other than that the Swedish market would probably be lost unless Tesla lets other companies take over the repair side of the business. And again, what market would be next?... Is Tesla willing to lose the Norwegian market...

This has been discussed on the Swedish Forum. (Tesla Club Sweden). The President of Tesla Club Sweden confronted the head of the Electrician union about this. And this was not sanctioned by the union. Only signs mounted on sticks adjacent to the supercharger site was sanctioned. Not the ones on...

Like I wrote, I don't know...

See my answer to @samppa in my previous post above.

IF Tesla were to begin talking to Metall then Tesla would of course have a say in those negotiations. Therefore – a Collective agreement between Metall and Tesla doesn't exist as of yet. And something that doesn't exist can not be public information. Again – in a negotiation with the union...

Of course it isn't.

No. The gov. agency sent the plates by using a non-government postal company. And the plates got stuck at that postal company. The court ruled that Tesla shall be able to collect the plates directly at the private company that manufactures the plates.

Regarding the plates yes. But nothing more than the plates. And that court decision was directed towards a Government agency – not the union.

Allegedly: The spokesman of the Air Force of Ukraine confirmed the destruction of Russian aircraft over the Bryansk region in May of last year with the Patriot air defense system. Yuriy Ignat told what he calls May 13, 2023 "the Bryansk massacre". Then, "thanks to non-standard actions", the...

1. No-one knows since Tesla's contracts are not public information. 2. Tesla employees are on strike. Why would they strike if there was no reason? 3. If Tesla's contracts are the exact same as the Collective agreements that the union wants Tesla to sign – then what's the problem? Why can't...

The same way as Democracy is "mob style"?... 90% of employees in Sweden are covered by Collective agreements. Some 70% of employees in Sweden are union members. The unions have pretty strong support in Sweden. That's the "mob" you are referring to here. And on the other side of this conflict...

And when did the union say that?... That's a claim by an anonymous Twitter-account that in turn is 'referencing' 'some anonymous source'...

No-one is forced to join a union. You clearly misunderstood that part.

Sweden is not the US. As you may have noticed by now the unions can do stuff in Sweden that I'm guessing they can not do in the US. And Sweden doesn't have any kind of such RICO, "extortion" or "racketeering" laws. We do have such laws aimed at corporations though... ;) Everything the unions...

And how many workshops are owned by the union?... I'll answer that one for you: 0 How is the union going to stop companies from hiring people?... How surprising that he's not allowed to share the source... Could it be because there isn't one?... EDIT: And this isn't the first time I've...
