Activists demonstrate outside Tesla stores in US in protest against Musk's slashing of federal jobs

ACTIVISTS gathered outside Tesla stores across the United States on Saturday to protest against the car maker’s billionaire chief executive Elon Musk and his campaign to cut government jobs.

The rallies were part of more than 50 listed on the Tesla Takedown website on Saturday, with more planned later in March across the US, Britain, Spain and Portugal. 

The protesters hope to discourage and stigmatise purchases of Tesla, the electric car company.
