“I think Elon Musk has been a fantastic thing for freedom of speech. I will hold my hand up and say, I’m a huge fan of Elon Musk.”
A sycophant to a person like Musk has no place being LOTO let alone the PM.
Read the article.
It makes jenrick, tugendhat and cleverly seem intelligent and badenoch looks insane
I guess she enjoys freedom of speech as long as it’s not directed at her… Bad Enoch blowing her trumpet hard again.
Elon Musk is such a fan of free speech that he has:

Anyone who supports Elon Musk’s brand of “free speech” just wants to be free to control speech, Badenoch included.
That’s because, like Elmo, Bad Enoch is a drooling idiot.
Elon musk is a white supremacist. Does Badenoch have some sort of weird fetish?
Is she trying to lose the leadership race what with this and her working class comment?
Elon Musk is a far right piece of shit who has spent his time on twitter deliberately boosting Russian propaganda about Ukraine and all sorts of racist conspiracy rhetoric, not just about US issues but UK ones too.
Badenoch praising him tells you everything you need to know about her and how awful she is. Just a mediocre culture war obsessed freak.
If Patel was the dominatrix Braverman looks more like a starving crackwhore about the have a psychotic episode and stab her children.
Yes Badenoch. Because the white supremacist, replacement theory believing, Apartheid era South African is *totally* going to let *you* in the club. mmhm. That is totally going to happen.
This is the same woman who pulled the race card when criticised by David Tennant. Funny how she will support known racists when it suits her though!
Of course you do , as a fellow member of team Weird.
To be so consistently wrong about everything implies she knows the reality of the situation and is simply choosing to be a controversial chud for attention.
Shocker, fascist political party recognises known fascist.
Leon is just a shit Bond villain and should have been quietly dropped in a piranha tank by now.
Ah yes, the guy that lifted bans on NEO NAZI ACCOUNT!!!!
One of the Tory party’s high fliers. Their talent pool dried up so far, the Aral Sea is now deeper.
The statement she made seems fair to be honest, there is more bad stuff but the ultra-woke censorship has also gone.
Why are our politicians trying to woo billionaires, maybe she wants a quid pro quo.
Musk is a racist gagging for civil war in the UK.
The fact she fangirls for him says all we need to know about her.
Elon Musk’s security team, known as Voyager, has **20 security personnel** who follow him everywhere, even to the bathroom. According to a report by the New York Times Tesla boss does not move around without his bodyguards.
The same report cited the Tesla filing saying that the company paid $2.4 million in 2023 and another $500,000 through February 2024 for Musk’s security.
Just in case someone has used ‘freedom of speech’ to threaten him?
During Tesla’s annual shareholder meeting in June, Musk spoke about the threats against him. He claimed that two ‘homicidal maniacs’ had threatened to kill him. The report said that Elon Musk had bought a house secretly in 2022 after his previous address became public.
In the same year, Musk bought Twitter, later renamed X. In December 2022, he tried to suspend the X account of a university student who tracked his private jet and more than 24 other accounts. He stated that these were “basically assassination coordinates,”
Elon Musk and his companies, Tesla and SpaceX, have spent millions of dollars to ensure his safety. According to the New York Times report, citing internal Tesla documents, they have paid security company Gavin de Becker & Associates and others. The report said, quoting the documents and security experts, that Elon Musk also started Foundation Security to protect himself from threats.
I’m not sure what would be worse. That she genuinely likes the man or she’s just trying to butter him up like everyone used to do with Murdoch.
Saying it ahead of time, it would be dangerous to give her power.
Not even necessarily the economy but if she’s PM she’ll set back the social cohesiveness of our country.
UK Conservatives Stop Copying US Conservatives Challenge 2024: Impossible
Yeah, she a ‘huge fan’ because both of them are promoters of culture war lunacy.
