American billionaire Elon Musk has expressed his criticism towards politician Nigel Farage from Reform UK, who is an ally of newly elected US President Donald Trump in Britain. Musk believes the party needs new leadership.

On Twitter, Musk stated that Farage 'lacks the necessary skills' and reiterated the need for a new party leader.
Lacks the necessary skills.
According to Sky News, Musk did not explain the reason for his statement.
Previously, a conflict arose between the two politicians over their attitudes towards far-right activist Tommy Robinson. Musk called for Robinson's release, while Farage distanced himself from him, stating that he 'isn't the one needed'. It is worth noting that Robinson was arrested for violating a court order related to defamatory statements about a Syrian refugee schoolboy.
Leader of the opposition party Reform UK Nigel Farage has long supported Donald Trump. He openly campaigned for the elected US president during the US election campaign, and after Trump's victory, their contacts became even stronger.
