"Elon Musk advocates for revolutionary transformation in the UK during a protest rally endorsed by right-wing factions in London."
In the heart of London, a protest organised by activist Tommy Robinson attracted a crowd of between 110,000 and 150,000 people, according to police reports. Among the spectators, a surprising figure made an appearance: Elon Musk.
Musk, the billionaire entrepreneur and former advisor to U.S. President Donald Trump, addressed the protest via livestream, stirring controversy with his remarks. Musk warned the crowd that "violence is coming" and urged them to "fight back or die."
The business community was quick to voice their disapproval. Peter Kyle, the Business Secretary, deemed Musk's speech at the protest as "totally inappropriate." Musk's comments were particularly alarming given his previous statement that "civil war is inevitable" in relation to UK politics.
Prime Minister Keir Starmer, who has been managing a government crisis and cabinet reshuffle as of September 2025, swiftly condemned the violence at the protest. Starmer, who has been in office since 2024, pledged that Britain would not be intimidated and reiterated that the flag of Britain, a symbol of its diverse country, would never be surrendered to those who use it as a symbol of violence, fear, and division.
Musk's alliance with Reform UK leader Nigel Farage ended earlier this year, but his association with Robinson, who has been jailed in the past for contempt of court and spreading false claims about a refugee, raised eyebrows. Musk went so far as to accuse "the left" of being a "party of murder."
However, Musk's call for "revolutionary government change" in the United Kingdom drew the most attention. In a surprising turn, Musk even went as far as to say that Prime Minister Keir Starmer "should be in prison." It is important to note that there is no verified information that Musk has asked to be imprisoned by Starmer or made such a request publicly.
The latest political news focuses on the resignation of Deputy Prime Minister Angela Rayner and governmental changes under Starmer's leadership. As the dust settles from these developments, the impact of Musk's controversial appearance and remarks on the political landscape remains to be seen.
In a statement, Starmer reiterated that Britain is a nation built on tolerance, diversity, and respect, and he vowed to uphold these values in the face of divisive rhetoric and violence. The events of the protest serve as a stark reminder of the challenges that lie ahead in maintaining a peaceful and inclusive society.
