In an X post, Elon Musk stated that Reform UK Party leader Nigel Farage lacks the necessary qualities for leadership and should be replaced.
Musk tweeted that the Reform Party requires new leadership, asserting Farage is unsuitable.
Farage, however, publicly disagreed with Musk’s assessment.
“Unexpected! Elon’s a remarkable person, but I disagree. My stance remains: Tommy Robinson is not right for Reform, and I will not compromise my principles,” Farage countered on Twitter.
Musk has been advocating for Robinson, who is currently incarcerated.
However, Farage has consistently stated his opposition to Robinson joining the Reform UK Party.
Farage clarified that Robinson’s imprisonment is not due to “exposing grooming gangs,” but rather for “contempt of court.”
“I know he’s in prison for contempt of court, but the length of his sentence and solitary confinement are unjustified!” Musk wrote on X.
Reports identify Robinson’s real name as Stephen Yaxley-Lennon.
Musk, a vocal supporter of the President-elect during the 2024 American presidential race, claimed that a Trump loss would have resulted in the collapse of civilization.
