Can Farage survive the Musk onslaught?

Well then, I don’t think that Elon Musk has finished challenging Nigel Farage and another front has opened up over Nigel’s obvious reluctance to challenge Islam! Here is what Nigel had to say that attracted Musk’s attention;

Nigel Farage is essentially saying that Islam in the UK is already so big that we must not do anything politically to annoy it.

This was the Musk response..

Following on from his precious assertion that…

….I think we can assume that Musk sniffs weakness. Is he right?

Well, some people think Musk’s attacks are fully justified and others may feel it all very unfair.

The pro Farage argument goes something like;

“Nigel has to be very careful what he says and does. He must stay away from that “Tommy Robinson lot” as the media will only use that association to undermine Reform and it will scare away more moderate Labour/Tory voters. He also has to be careful what he says about Islam and he has to be clear that his views on migrants are modest. We have to play the long game”

In other words, a milquetoast Nigel is the best you can reasonably expect and just trust him.

But why? Elon Musk is clearly distancing himself from Nigel Farage and that should strike fear into the heart of Reform. Conversely, Musk has also expressed a liking for Rupert Lowe, who is much more plain speaking than Nigel Farage.

Should there be a change in the Leadership of Reform?
