Elon Musk’s recent social media attacks on the UK government, including labeling a minister a “rape genocide apologist,” prompted a strong response from Prime Minister Keir Starmer. Starmer criticized Musk’s spreading of conspiracies and misinformation, emphasizing the need for truth in politics. Musk’s comments have also strained his relationship with Nigel Farage, leader of Reform UK, over Musk’s support for far-right activist Tommy Robinson. Farage, initially close to Musk, disagreed with Musk’s call for new leadership in Reform UK.
