The Elon Musk today called for the release of British activist, Tommy Robinson, who was recently convicted by the British judiciary.
Following Labour‘s rise to power in July in the United Kingdom and the anti-immigrant and anti-Muslim riots that rocked the country last summer, Musk has multiplied his positions on developments in the United Kingdom.
During those riots Musk had blamed mass immigration and open borders for the riots in Britain.
The owner of the Tesla, “X” platform and Space X is taking aim at Kir Starmer‘s government, blaming it for suppressing dissident voices, pointing out that the British prime minister is leading a tyrannical police state.
In addition to the Labour government, the Tory opposition has also raised concerns about Musk’s links to the continuously rising in popularity “Reform UK” party and its leader Nigel Farage, whom he recently met in Florida.
Robinson, whose real name is Steven Yaxley-Lennon, was accused by British authorities of inciting the worst riots Britain has seen in a decade this summer.
“Why is Tommy Robinson being held in solitary confinement for telling the truth?” the American billionaire continued in his post.
In his posts today, Musk also attacked the attitude of the judiciary and Starmer on immigration crimes, saying the country should move on to holding new elections.
