And there it is. There is literally no way Musk was coming up with all that poison about UK politics by himself…finally some reporting on who is drafting his tweets (I mean ‘advising’ him) From the Mail who know these dark corners well www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article... - ThreadSky

Cummings and Leon both think they are some kind of genius 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

will-davies.bsky.social•48 days ago

Who is the more likely influence over the tweets: Cummings or US-based, Trump acolyte, Islam-fixated, Brit, incendiary hack, Douglas Murray?

worklesshard.bsky.social•48 days ago

Who's the "free Tommy" one among them? Where's that from?

will-davies.bsky.social•48 days ago

Murray is not far from that ideologically. But there’s also the online far right UK influencers that the FT listed a few days ago, that Musk now regularly retweets

zoonie.bsky.social•46 days ago

Jesus fucking wept, that appalling toad.

I wonder where the hell that leaves Cummings' relationship with Bannon?

My GODS, these men who truly believe they are smarter than everyone else! Aaaargh.

More factionalism on the right would actually be a good thing were it not for the fact Starmer’s policies are largely indistinguishable from Tory ones

dilleyandrew.bsky.social•48 days ago

Musk is just another teenage dirtbag. Who cares what slurs he chucks around? Ignore the prick.

mjqqq.bsky.social•47 days ago

I think it's time for all of us to worry, and act upon it. Ignore him? No...but how to effectively shut him up?

marcellograz.bsky.social•48 days ago

And remember that ‘prick’ is likely the kindest thing any of his acquaintances ever said about him. 🤣

stillwellgray.ca•48 days ago

He's a billionaire messing in the politics of at least 15 different countries. Ignoring him is for ostriches; he needs to be woodchippered.

dilleyandrew.bsky.social•48 days ago

You're not wrong about the latter. The other media ignoring him is a way of whittling him down.

nikkirobbo.bsky.social•48 days ago

I wonder if Gove also pulling strings?

yogamama.bsky.social•48 days ago

On the ones on a baggy.

pqpolitics.bsky.social•48 days ago

Oh that explains a lot. Not just the UK stuff

feralpolecat.bsky.social•48 days ago

That man should have faced the guillotine 5 years ago

taylordauthor.bsky.social•41 days ago

Remember that with Brexit, Dominic Cummings plan was to “completely destroy UK politics so that it needed to be re-built better”.

🤦‍♂️

jonroberts.bsky.social•48 days ago

Dominic Cummings is also obsessed with genetics, intelligence and heritability. I wish I had know about this partnership when I wrote this https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2024/dec/30/donald-trump-elon-musk-genetics-science-right

jonroberts.bsky.social•48 days ago

The damage that man has done to our country is immeasurable

keanezero12.bsky.social•48 days ago

Any start up party is doomed to fail tbh

sharkgrappler.bsky.social•48 days ago

Boris Johnson did it all by himself.

pwc50.bsky.social•48 days ago

But it’s the Mail init?

The reference to two-tier Keir is far more akin to Farage’s forgettable contributions which the same reporters have mentioned in previous articles👇

As for Cummings tipping off an uncontrollable loudmouth?

A big pinch of salt maybe

Luckily Dominic Cummings has only ever been able to bitch and moan in the background.

trixiebelden75.bsky.social•48 days ago

And it’s the mail

trixiebelden75.bsky.social•48 days ago

Dominik Cummings who spent weeks in his Country home during Covid after his wife had been exposed so he drove out to the country. SEE THIS ENGLAND ON BBC OR BRIT BOX

paulhaine.bsky.social•48 days ago

So Trump has been influenced by Musk who's in turn been influenced by Cummings...

modmagus.bsky.social•46 days ago

Is he auditioning for the next Mozart remake?

alaintwigger.bsky.social•48 days ago

If it's true, this is the Mail after all, the upside is Cummings, Trump and Musk, three of the most delusional mega egos ever seen, will be lucky to last a week.

lorelei174.bsky.social•48 days ago

If this is true and can be proved I suggest @jessphillipsmp.bsky.social goes after Cummings with a defamation suit.

leonardselc.bsky.social•48 days ago

Another "sovereignty" bellend helping the downfall of the UK.

gxro6883.bsky.social•48 days ago

Yep and skew his shitty platform to amplify the hatred. Possibly with the exception of Trump, the worst mammal on earth.

cathyglass.bsky.social•47 days ago

World domination.

yogamama.bsky.social•48 days ago

Ahhh the traitor-in-chief strikes again, another one with an inflated ego.

jasperjackson.bsky.social•48 days ago

I am slightly sceptical about this being quite as pitched by the Mail. Key claim is government sources, and a key part of their evidence is time of day the tweets are sent...

emilybell.bsky.social•48 days ago

tbf MoS has an ok record on Tory /reform insides. But will wait to hear denial from DC that he is regularly in contact with world’s richest man 😂.

jasperjackson.bsky.social•48 days ago

Lol, yeah. I mean, they do seem to be well matched in a number of ways...

taraconlan.bsky.social•48 days ago

Mini-Me to Musk’s Dr Evil

jofromeurope.bsky.social•48 days ago

X Should be banned in UK and 🇪🇺

eduardosuarez.bsky.social•48 days ago

Sources quite thin and anonymous. Not sure we should take this at face value

emilybell.bsky.social•48 days ago

I doubt the Mail have made this up. It’s their constituency after all.

eduardosuarez.bsky.social•48 days ago

I'm a bit more skeptical about the Mail, and about any scoop in a British Sunday paper. But hey! What should I know? I'm just a foreigner

kimstiens.bsky.social•48 days ago

No one should ever take The Daily Mail seriously. People seem to be doing so in this case purely because it confirms their existing biases, which is pretty gross considering how truly horrific the Daily Mail is. It's like RT'ing a Stormfront article because you happen to agree with it

theodora30.bsky.social•48 days ago

For the right wing Daily Mail to attack people on the right for being too extreme is significant. They rarely do that but even they think this is a bridge too far. It would be like Fox News calling out Musk for partnering with a White Supremacist which sadly Fox wouldn’t do.
