> Anyone can apply for their own TLD but it's not cheap. £130K+ a year iirc after a long application process

Anyone could during the one-time “new gTLD” scramble, but applications closed for that years ago; no decision on any subsequent round has yet been made, because the review of that first round has not yet been completed.

So, other than establishing a new country and getting a new ccTLD, there's no way to get a new TLD right now.
