Nigel Farage has turned on Elon Musk's X platform, telling reporters in London on Monday 20 April that it is becoming a 'very unpleasant, very dangerous place' after Reform UK's ethnic minority candidates were allegedly hit with abuse ahead of May's elections.
Until recently, the Reform UK leader had spoken warmly about Musk's takeover of Twitter and its rebrand to X, praising the move as a win for free speech. But that relationship appears to have deteriorated since a public clash over Farage's support for Tommy Robinson, after which Musk suggested Farage should be replaced and later backed Rupert Lowe's breakaway party, Restore Britain.
