Reform has just 5 MPs. 5!

More votes than the wet dems, who should be the ones with only 5 seats.
Yet Rupert Lowe etc are standing up for British people more so than Davey. In fact all of those 5 have more nouse about them than all the wet dems put together.

😄😄 that’s not how I would describe it!

Doesn't stand up for me...why do Reform supporters assume that the majority of UK citizens think the way they do? It always puzzles me.

Over the pond they are suggesting Tommy Robinson should be our leader !!!! What absolute boll..............s !!!!!!

Musk rather thinks Rupert Lowe is the main man. For the time being at least.

Well I suppose the USA doesn't have a problem with a felon as leader, so assume, wrongly, that the UK is the same.

Ha ha Freya, you are so ridiculous you actually cheer me up.

" Standing up for the British People" What a joke.

fancythat

What a hoot.

If it all wasnt so serious.

Musk is playing. Typical neurodiverse behaviour.
The trouble is he has no idea how serious his actions can be.
Even when the worst happens with people with this condition they still find it funny.

Excellent response from Farage.
Measured & calm as usual.

I love you sarcastic sense of humour.

We need to learn, understand and accept that politics today is not the politics of yesterday.

Social media has had a massive impact. Trump was wildly popular on Tiktok, younger generations loved him.

Watch The Social Dilemma, it explains it all.

I heard Nigel Farage on tv this morning describing Musk as a hero. He said just being associated with him made Reform look “cool”

I wonder if he still feels the same about his hero this evening.

I think Musk has been behaving very strangely these last few weeks: absolute power?? It is his influence in America, ie Trump, that is so dangerous, due to his 'donation'of £57 million, plus.

Farage is definitely not a slithery boot- licking crawler, like many. Good on him, this stance will gather even more support. The man had backbone

What ‘stance’ karmalady? Musk is calling the shots, criticising Farage. Has Farage responded ‘with backbone’ by telling Musk to get lost? I don’t think so.

He knew that supporting Robinson would lose votes. He needs to keep his distance for political reasons. That's not backbone.

How dare Musk, Trump or any other American criticize our country or politicians. They definitely want to put their own house in order before doing that.

Well if Musk only said that about Farage I would say he got off lightly, he called Jess Philips an evil witch and a rape genocide apologist. Now, all opinions aside, whether people love or loathe Jess Philips, this is not something a sane person says on social media, is an utter disgrace, and could incite certain people to attempt to cause harm to Jess Philips, goodness knows our politicians get enough death threats and rape threats in the case of women.
And of course this maniac is Trump's advisor.
Farage should think himself lucky that he didn't suffer far worse, and will perhaps now take refuge in Clacton where his constituents might just recognise who their MP is after such a long time.

Jess has had a panic room installed in her office because of previous threats; not sure if that’s in her home or her constituency office.

That has always been going on, has it not?

Ordinary people anyway, are more than quick to do it.
You have just done it yourself.

True of course.
However it takes some chutzpah not to cosy up for the sake of ££millions!

Farage.
A rare man of principle. He’s sticking to them.

So you are not actually joking?

Fantastic publicity for Farage. He is now officially the Man who Can't be Bought - even for 100 million dollars.
Thanks, Elon!

I just want integrity, moral fibre and intelligence in our leaders.
A sprinkling of common sense would be good too.

It would be funny this latest xtweet if it wasn't so serious.

Very true.
But I don't think that Gogo84 is the billionaire owner of a massive social media site with possibly millions of followers worldwide. Nor the advisor to the President of one of the world's biggest superpowers.
This does make a difference.

Oh FGT your spinning is improving by the day😊😊.

But don’t think for a minute that we are taken in.

Farage is clearly the best leader for Reform, and the best PM for the UK.

Of course he is😊

Many ARE fed up and disillusioned with the uniparty.
Reform are not an ultra-right party. They are appealing to the middle with sensible right-leaning policies. Musk may not like that, but such is life.
