Senior Tories and business leaders are fearful that the Tesla chief Elon Musk could donate $100 million to help make Nigel Farage the next British Prime Minister.
Musk spent more than $200 million to fund Donald Trump during the US election campaign and should Farage receive this donation it will be seen as a “f**k you Starmer” payment.
Musk has taken a real dislike to Sir Keir Starmer since he become the Prime Minister and has openly called him “two-tier Keir” over the way he is allowing the police to tackle certain groups in the UK.
The SpaceX owner has criticized Starmer over the policing of free speech and the early release of prisoners.
Musk wrote, “I don’t think anyone should go to the UK when they’re releasing convicted paedophiles in order to imprison people for social media posts.”
Farage has said he is not sure if Musk would actually donate any money to Reform UK and acknowledged they are good friends.
Farage told The Times, “All I can say is that I’m in touch with him and he is very supportive of my policy positions.
“We both share a friendship with Donald Trump and Trump has said good things about me in front of Musk. We’ve got a good relationship with him.”
Tory officials believe there is a real possibility that Musk will donate large sums of money which would instantly turn Reform in the a second party overtaking the Conservatives.
