Tesla board investigates Musk’s secret project

Published

on

Elon Musk, appears to be involved in a secretive venture, constructing an all-glass home near the company’s Gigafactory in the Austin area.

Dubbed “Project 42” by Tesla employees, this enigmatic initiative has kept people guessing for over a year.

Sources from The Wall Street Journal reveal that Tesla’s board initiated an investigation due to concerns that Musk might be utilizing company funds for his glass house project.

The venture reportedly involves the purchase of millions of dollars worth of special glass, raising eyebrows among employees. Additionally, several limited liability firms connected to Musk and Tesla executives have acquired substantial amounts of land in the vicinity.

Although various design concepts are allegedly being considered, the transparent structure is planned to be located just outside of Austin, Texas, offering a view of Tesla’s headquarters in the distance. Among the proposed plans, one envisions a hexagonal shape with waterfront views, while another resembles the boxy design of Apple’s store on Fifth Avenue in New York.

Following the significant glass order, employees’ concerns triggered an internal investigation to determine if there was any misuse of company resources. However, the findings and status of this inquiry remain undisclosed for now.

Sussan Ley’s leadership faces scrutiny as the Liberal party debates a net-zero emissions target.
Conservative members argue she should abandon the goal to maintain her position, while moderates hope for a compromise that aligns with the Paris Agreement.Banner

Leadership contenders like Angus Taylor and Andrew Hastie support staying committed to the Paris Agreement, rejecting a net-zero commitment. Taylor indicated future leadership aspirations are not confirmed.

Pro-net-zero frontbencher Tim Wilson seeks decisive leadership to address the issue. Ley’s lack of internal guidance frustrates moderates, creating uncertainty regarding her stance on net-zero. While some conservatives advocate for its dismissal, others display mixed support.

Liberal party dynamics shift as polling reveals significant opposition to net-zero among constituents. The upcoming party room meeting and shadow ministers gathering will aim to finalise the Coalition’s position.

Internal Divisions

Moderate MPs warn that elections will be lost if net-zero is abandoned, emphasising its importance in urban areas.

A poll indicates strong support for a 2050 net-zero target among voters. Critics of the Nationals’ policy argue it is misguided and incompatible with national interests.

Calls for resignation from frontbench positions are met with opposition. Some representatives voiced frustration over the timing of the meeting, suggesting it should have been resolved earlier.
