James O'Brien analysed the latest row involving Elon Musk and Keir Starmer, saying: "It’s almost as if the truth doesn’t matter, because the intoxicating unpleasantness that Twitter is made of has now entirely taken over and become so powerful."
In the latest of a string of tweets taking aim at the PM, Elon Musk wrote: "America should liberate the people of Britain from their tyrannical government."
The billioanire's followers on the platform could respond with a simple "yes," or "no." Up to 71.7% of thousands who responded voted for "yes." Just 28.3% of respondents replied no.
He also posted: “Prison for Starmer”, responding to a post that “Elsie, Bebe and Alice were killed by a Muslim with a knife in England but for Keir Starmer the problem is Islamophobia”, referencing the killing of three children in the 2024 terror Southport attack over the summer.
Elon Musk also shared an image of Sir Keir with the words "Liar" written over. Last week he called Labour's safeguarding minister Jess Phillips a "rape genocide apologist", and said she should be jailed over Labour's blockage of a grooming gangs inquiry into Keir Starmer’s conduct as the CPS head.
Elon Musk has also posted that Nigel Farage 'doesn't have what it takes to be Reform leader', and that he should be replaced.
