If you take even a quick look at his bio, it’s clear that he cannot possibly be unbiased and will always favour quite an extreme right position.
He’ll be a BBC non-exec director until 2028.
In fact it should be named the Bannon Brainwashing Cabal
Not implementing a Leveson2 for the C21st is now looking like Labours biggest error in its history
Og speech back
Develop an alternative to SpaceX.
Leverage laws to deter and prosecute conduct harmful to the national security.
World ; Stop giving him the oxygen of attention .
Once Trump assumes power , Musk will have more pressing things to focus on ; how to control his man .
Good people need to stand together , across the U.K. & Europe & say ‘No.’
Now the UK is out of EU protection an Oligarchy would be possible via political chaos and Reform / these Conservatives.
Yes Elon, by you.
You can’t just replace an democratically elected government before an election
The only way that could happen is there was a vote of no confidence in parliament
Starmer has a majority of 212.
Doing Putins bidding
Normalising Musks depravity
Whitewashing Fascists
Encouraging riots
Backing a foreign Nazi over its own Govt which used to be known as treason
The MSM and especially BBC need to stop showcasing the far right and reporting on actually what they are doing.
I can’t quite grasp the extent of his sense of entitlement. Or his blatant (and probably quite wilful) ignorance.
If you are a UK citizen you must put aside your personal politics for now and completely condemn Musk. This is an outrageous attack on one of the oldest democracies by a malicious foreign actor'

Resist BEFORE it's your turn!
I was going to add that but forgot.
The middle classes were worried about the high inflation and in absence of a functioning opposition voted for them.
It was a bit like a double act really.
i don’t cate what the consequences of that are.
"Plus ca change, tragedy and farce, ... etc"
You had a discussion on LBC about whether or not it is reasonable to accuse Musk of election interference - Surely this qualifies?

He could start by pulling all Government content off Twitter right now.
Starmer just needs to find his spine. If he folds, he's dead in the water.
Musk was not always this bad though. He had lots of money & focussed on space & cars. He never interfered with politics eg Trumps first term. This I think was a turning point from a few of years ago:
Remind me again about the first duty of a government.
Did Musk make X the home of free debate?DHF. They just boosted the opinions of every Reform climate denialist. If they were UK based, I'm sure OFCOM would have fined them.
Some have suggested Farage might be principled - sticking to his no former BNP/NF in Reform, but I think it’s also personal rivalry on the right.
