Opinion Elon Musk interfering in UK politics was not on our 2025 bingo card

Peter Flanagan examines a bizarre week in global politics when the world’s richest man threw his weight around.

IT’S GREAT FUN being a billionaire in America. While the rest of us rely on television or video games to unwind in the evening, Elon Musk has taken to interfering in Western democracies for sport.

A real life comic book character, he’s become the answer to the question – what would Tony Stark be like if he grew up in apartheid South Africa and took ketamine? It’s not a pretty sight. 

After turning Twitter into his personal fiefdom and linking arms with Donald Trump on his march towards the Presidency, Musk started looking around for his next great wheeze. Much to the delight of men who live in their mother’s basements everywhere, he decided to try to topple the UK government.

His vendetta against Keir Starmer started sometime last year when he shared an online petition calling for another general election. The petition – which was started by a pub landlord in Shropshire who typed the words ‘how to change the Prime Minister’ into Google – ended up with millions of signatures.

Since then, he’s become fixated on the groups of men – primarily of Pakistani descent – who groomed and raped mainly young white women in towns and cities around Britain. Far-right conspiracy theories allege there’s been a cover-up. This line has been parroted by Musk in a series of wild posts on X, accusing the Prime Minister of being ‘complicit’ in the rape of Britain and even calling Jess Phillips, the safeguarding minister, ‘a rape genocide apologist’. 

Political interference

The sexual exploitation of children by grooming gangs has been covered on the front pages of newspapers, television dramas and social media for over a decade now. There have been hundreds of arrests with multiple convictions, while many investigations are still ongoing.

Yet, Musk believes that the world needs him to wade in and shine a light on the scandal. He apparently only stumbled upon the story while doom strolling over Christmas, like a horse tranquilliser-addled Grinch.

The tycoon reportedly thinks that the fate of Western civilisation is at stake, so he’s been speaking to allies about how to destabilise the Labour Party and back an alternative right-wing movement in the UK. Smelling blood in the water, the Tories have weighed in behind him. Leader Kemi Badenoch has regurgitated the accusations in parliament, for which Musk has called her ‘brave and true’. The pair are either unaware or wilfully ignoring the fact that the previous Conservative government already had an inquiry but took no concrete action on the findings. 

Badenoch, in case you missed it, is Rishi Sunak’s replacement. Her party were told to ‘be more normal’ if they wanted to find a path back to power, but under her leadership they’ve doubled down on being balls-to-the-wall weird. This is a woman who claimed that while she comes from a middle-class family, as a teenager she worked in McDonald’s therefore ‘became working class’. Like the time I ate a Ferraro Rocher and became an Italian aristocrat.  

Spare a thought for Nigel Farage, who must be feeling a little jilted by Badenoch’s budding love affair with the world’s richest man. There had been rumours that Musk was looking at a massive $100 million donation to Reform UK. But Musk has since posted that the party needs a new leader and that ‘Farage doesn’t have what it takes’. Ouch.

They seem to have fallen out over the South African mogul’s support for Tommy Robinson, the football hooligan turned far-right activist who is currently in jail for contempt of court. Spineless in the face of Musk’s wealth and influence, Farage is still planning to attend Trump’s inauguration, having no doubt already spent a small fortune on fake tan for the occasion. Lizard tangerine is the colour he’s been going for lately. 

The Tesla owner’s dramatic meddling in British politics couldn’t come at a worse time for Starmer. His approval ratings were already at Liz Truss levels. He wasn’t straight with people during the election campaign about the painful fiscal decisions Labour would need to take in office. The government have so far picked fights with pensioners, farmers and Waspi women, with more battles still to come.

Whoever ends up being Labour’s main opponent in the next election, it should not be this easy for foreign billionaires to distract, influence and manipulate our public officials. Here on planet Earth, people are still struggling with the cost of living, housing and healthcare. We need our politicians to be focused on the issues that matter most to us, not the erratic whims of a megalomaniac desperate to find meaning in his life.

    Isn’t it funny how the leftist elite getting their knickers in a twist over Elon Musk ‘interfering in democracy’ have been perfectly content for decades for George Soros, Chuck Feeney and Bill and Melinda Gates to spend billions ‘interfering in democracy’.

My point was lads like you always talk about the likes of trump and musk, smashing the ‘leftist elite’ draining the swamp etc..as if they are any different from the ‘elite’ you claim they are saving us from. They are multi billionaires who care more about enriching themselves than anything. Trumps election added 64bn in wealth to the top 10 richest people in the world, and now he’s telling people he can’t bring the price of groceries down. Ireland has never had a left wing government in power, so maybe Soros should have pumped more billions in.

    “Ireland has never had a left wing government”!! You really want to go opening that can of worms? So the government’s of the last ten years that saw a massive,unprecedented explosion in government spending and the size of the state, that chipped away at the concept of private property rights with things like rent caps and eviction bans..which incidentally have had the opposite of the intended effects..that operated basically an open door immigration policy that has the native Irish on track to be a minority by 2050,if not earlier..that introduced gay marriage and some of the most ‘progressive’ abortion laws in the world! This is what you define as a ‘right wing’ government? I’d be curious what you’d define as a ‘left wing’ regime?

    @Jonn: FF and FG are both centre right parties. Neither ‘introduced’ gay marriage or the repeal of the 8th amendement. They were both passed by referendum both of which were overwhelmingly voted for by the peoole. It’s called democracy. Fine geal are socially progressive, but fiscally conservative. They kowtow to big business interests and property developers. They are at their core a party of landlords and businessmen. FF crashed the economy bailing out bankers and bondholders to the tune of billions, plunging this country into years of hardship and austerity. They come from a majority catholic and conservative voter base. If you think a few socially progressive policies automatically make them far left you don’t have a decent understanding of the political spectrum.

    I remember the gay marriage and abortion referendums..for both on one side you had the massed ranks of pretty much the entire political establishment, with one or two exceptions..all of the huge power and wealth of the NGOs, and pretty much all of the media with the exception of Gript, which was only in its infancy back then and so was largely irrelevant. So it wasn’t so much a contest as a rubber-stamping operation, you were basically told you were a neanderthal throwback if you voted against either proposal! As for Fianna Fail still being a ‘Catholic’ party?? Really,you’re just gaslighting now, give it a rest!

Do you ever think maybe you are just in the minority with your conservative views? I said that was their traditional voter base, not that they still were a catholic party. Good man for completely glossing over my main points about how beholden to big business, banks and bondholders both parties are, which is about the least left-wing you can get.

    It was once said that winning a general election in the UK required the backing of the Murdoch news empire. Today, Musk, uses his X platform to amplify his worldview including directly attacking the UK and others’ governments. Big Tech’s platform power has become a political weapon, enabling figures like Musk to attack politicians, while suppressing journalistic free expression. Musk and Zuckerberg (while publicly claiming that they wish to protect free speech), are in fact aligning their corporate power with the political interests of the second Trump administration.

Also, as mentioned at the beginning of the piece, The UK Times, the best known newspaper in the UK, covered the grooming scandal on it’s front page and had weekly articles on it for months, at the time it happened! It’s so easy to feed a false narrative to the knee-benders on Twitter and Facebook and they’ll believe it without question, ironically these people call themselves ‘truth-seekers’, lol.

    @martin lawlor: Education is key. “You’re” means “you are,” like in “You’re my best friend.” “Your” shows something belongs to you, like in “Your phone is ringing.” If “you are” works in the sentence, use “you’re.” If not, use “your.”

    If you ever wondered just how many people are deeply ignorant of basic information and don’t understand the context of the events being opportunistically seized on by the deeply unscrupulous and even the truly deranged…Elon Musk’s supporters, apologists, etc.
