Politics elon musk nigel farage takedowns
This A++ response to Nigel Farage after he was dumped by Elon Mask deserves to be hung in the Louvre
There was no end of reaction to the news that Elon Musk had unceremoniously dumped Nigel Farage after all the talk had been how the Tesla ringpiece was going to give £100m to Reform UK.
He might still do that – or attempt to do that – but not while Farage is in charge, it would appear.
The Reform Party needs a new leader. Farage doesn’t have what it takes.

Here’s what Farage himself had to say (let’s hope he hadn’t spent too much of that £100m already).
Well, this is a surprise! Elon is a remarkable individual but on this I am afraid I disagree.
My view remains that Tommy Robinson is not right for Reform and I never sell out my principles. https://t.co/V7iccN6usS

And it prompted lots of totally on-point responses.

Nigel must be so annoyed that autocorrect changed ‘MASSIVE CUNT’ into ‘remarkable individual’. https://t.co/szkIF8pmyR

There’s a split among the Far Right.

But surely no response put it better than Larry the Cat himself (not actually Larry the Cat), @Number10cat.
In fairness you were right Nigel; foreigners were coming for your job.
