Billionaire wants man who intentionally tried to cause a mistrial for pedos freed.
I see right wing twitter more and more wading in to our politics and dishing out their views. I’m sure 99% of it is pandering to their base and pointing at us as some extreme left wing state that *we could turn into if we aren’t careful!!!* but anyone on our side of the pond just looks at them with a bewildered stare
Ketamine-addled egomaniac attempts to get his rightoid audience back on side again after the H1B fiasco
One can only hope that Elon’s continued support of little fascist like Tommy Robinson will make his support of organisations like Reform that much more toxic.
Unfortunately every time I think those idiots have learned there lesson this time they continue to disappoint me
It’s so insane to me that the richest man on the planet spends his time on shit like this. Why the fuck would he care about Tommy Robinson at all?
You can understand Farage to a degree because he has some profile and Musk (mistakenly) thinks he can prop him up as another populist ideologue to gain more power, but wtf does he think Tommy Robinson will do for him?
A few months ago, Musk was supporting borderline Nazis and dog whistling racism.
Now he’s stopped with any pretence. He supporting actual Nazis and he’s outright supporting racism.
Tommy Robinson is a racist thug who has committed multiple crimes. Anyone who supports him and pretends that criminality is the reason why they hate immigrants is telling you what they really think.
Musk is a racist.
> “Who is the boss of Jess Phillips right now? Keir Stamer. The real reason she’s refusing to investigate the rape gangs is that it would obviously lead to the blaming of Keir Stamer (head of the CPS at the time).”
How on earth does anyone still think this guy is intelligent, he sounds like a raving mad man.
Maybe he should look at his own boss if he wants to find a person responsible for rape and in a position of power.
The sooner we never hear of Elon Musk talking about UK politics the better
first off all uk public services should be off twitter, it’s unacceptable to be requiring folk to sign up to that garbage fire to read messages from police services and local councils
Tommy Robinson, whose criminal convictions include assaulting an off-duty police officer, stalking, fraud and drug possession, has served multiple prison sentences. In 2013 he was jailed for attempting to use a false passport to enter the US.
[Video](https://youtu.be/ao89_DiDOkU?si=E4dTz0Jh6uNi73IF) looking at his history and criminal convictions.
Jfc what did we do to deserve this man child’s attention.
Also just shows even more to anyone who still admires Elon that he is in fact a fucking idiot
And this is why I boycott as much as possible, companies that use and advertise on Twitter.
Every time Gary Linekar posts something everyone is desperate to remind him to stick to football.
Presumably with Musk it should be stick to Ket? No idea what else he does.
Why is a UK newspaper reporting the ravings of a foreign nutter? It’s none of his business

Cool, well I ‘demand’ Musk go suck off a hornet’s nest.
We should ban Elon Musk references in this sub. His whole agenda is to use Twitter to get into British politics and then leverage controlled sentiment to get Reform into power. It is overtly political and shouldn’t be allowed here. Everything Elon is saying and doing regarding the UK currently is to support that agenda, whether obvious or not.
Just because he’s rich doesn’t mean we need to hear about all of his lunatic ravings. The guy literally bought Twitter so he could have his soap box, leave him to it please and report about more worthwhile things.
If I recall correctly, Little Tommy Ten-Names is actually banned from entering the US due to his criminal history.
Silly.
Both of these things are true:
– Tommy Robinson is a crook who should be in prison
– He’s really not wrong on the “grooming gang” (this is an unbelievably kind description of what they were doing, I really regret reading some of the court proceedings) problem.
Can the UK press please stop giving airtime to this festering scrote.
I’m confident I can speak for the majority when I say I demand that Musk winds his neck in and crawls back up Trumps orange arsehole.
Can this prick fuck off to mars already.
He’s a very clear and obvious example of money making it easy to corrupt the world
Sometimes I’m like ‘what’s this guy playing at?’ and them I remember it’s Diablo and a lot makes sense
Interested to see the response to this from individuals and groups who firmly believe immigrants should not be contributing to or shaping policy or culture in Britain.
Elon Musk? Isn’t he Biggus Dickus or some such now?
Maybe the newspapers can take that as a sign he doesn’t need to be taken seriously.
It’s weird how many Tommy Robinson supporters look the other way when you point out the hypocrisy of a man who ignored sex abuse, paedophilia and drug dealing in the EDL, who think he’s jailed for freedom of speech (whilst libel laws have existed for centuries), when he admitted to breaching a court order for criminal contempt?
And I hate that everything Elon Musk does or says is somehow relevant. The guy is a grifter interrupting in our politics and criminal justice system.
Downvote this trash. This isn’t news, its a the opinion of a citizen of another country, not a high ranking government official there, not one at all. There can be thousands of articles about which billionaire or someone who associates with the government there thinks which person should or shouldn’t be in prison, why dont we hear about those if its important?
Stuff like this only makes the news because people click it.
Elon is going increasingly nuts. I wish he’d just go back to spaceships and satelites.
Incredible how the owner of a social media platform can fall so far down the blackhole of the culture war. He falls for algorithms and gamefication as hard as anyone.
Like, bro, just play a real game. You don’t have to be scared of the control pad.
The more I hear about Musk the more it’s confirmed that he’s an edgy teenage boy that never matured.
Also that he’s a dickhead.
Given that Musk bought his own platform to pad his ego and spread his agenda. And become seemingly more narcissistic due to it. I kinda wish we didn’t cover him in other platforms. It like farage on questiontime all over again. The amount of coverage given is miss-proportional.
Musk strikes me as a huge ego who probably wasn’t told no enough, and hugged enough as a child.
Elon needs to realise outside of America he’s seen as a shiftless bastard with too much money
Man who owns companies wants powers to influence and dictate other countries laws
Elon Musk is the enemy of freedom. The owner of the world’s largest social media platform who openly bought votes, a man who is known to capitulate to our enemies and hostile states, is unashamedly trying to divide and corrupt Europe.
He is a tyrant, and a traitor. He ought to be tried for treason, and depending on the outcome, dragged to the gallows. Legally, of course. I’m not proposing violence, just the correct and proper administration of justice for a man who continues to get away with crimes that would see anybody else publicly hanged.
Remember that Thomas Jefferson defined tyranny as a state in which that which is legal for governments is forbidden to the layman. How the tree of liberty has withered and decayed…
Please take note : anyone that buys a Tesla is directly funding this nutcase’s agenda, and Nigel Farage. Besides , they’re overpriced trash anyway , far better options out there.
Please don’t fund this twat
‘South African Tycoon living in US demands UK justice system frees Far-Right activist who helped sex offenders escape court with mistrial’
And to think with all those billions he could fund charities that help victims of abuse , or fund research and strategies into preventing it.
Nope he would rather rant about women choosing not to have kids on X and spread lies about the [contraceptive pill.](https://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/health-and-families/tucker-carlson-elon-musk-full-interview-abortion-b2323358.html)
Just tell Musk that the UK doesn’t negotiate with Terrorists (political, religious or economic)
The Independent showing their “journalistic integrity” here.
I wish Sir Kier would just get up at PMQs “And a note for Mr Musk, shut up and stuff off, thanks.”
Free him, send him to USA (I’m sure Trump will allow a criminal that entered illegally before to enter this time) and don’t let him come back to the UK.
At this point if you use X then you are lining the pockets of someone who hates Britain.
If anyone is unsure of what this is, this is the start of a prolonged disinformation campaign to displace moderate politics in the UK. Expect persistent inflammatory comments designed to fuel the right wing culture war that is so effective in current political discourse.
A Trump/Musk presidency will push for a new trade deal with some token compromise to sell as a US victory against the UK, whereas both side will want to avoid economically suicidal tarriffs. Watch as the US then spins in a few years and changes the narrative to suggest that the UK would have had a better deal with Reform. That alongside huge spending and flooding social media with AI driven propaganda will push for a significant Reform presence in the next election. The end goal being a puppet government sympathetic to US interests that would fracture the EU threat to US capitalist dominance. Of course this is also hugely beneficial to Russian interests who are actively promoting similar disinformation campaigns.
Ban his platform for 3 months – and keep him on a sliding scale, next offence 6 months and so on.
Work with the EU to synchronise the bans.
let him scream into the void if he must but restrict his reach – and income.
In other news Tesla’s sales dropped for the first time today.
Turns out promoting far right views lead your progressive electric car customers to go somewhere else
Musk is your uncle who has been radicalised by Facebook, except he has the resources of a mid-sized country with which to pursue his insane theories.
Yikes.
