I would challenge him on on a factual basis Deputy Prime Minister Angela Rayner Asked whether she was concerned about Mr Musk’s influence in UK politics amid Financial Times reports the American billionaire has held private talks about removing the Prime Minister from office, she told the PA news agency: “I think it’s about how we call out when people are factually incorrect. “The facts are very clear that the Prime Minister took serious action which led to the convictions of child grooming gangs, and therefore completely ill-advised and factually incorrect in terms of how Elon Musk is using his platform and his wealth to not just here in the UK actually, but you’ve seen it across the board.” The senior Cabinet minister added: “What can be quite dangerous is when people are factually incorrect, and that spreads on those platforms. “Anyone who’s got a platform, a significant platform, has a responsibility to make sure that they’re factually correct, and when they’re not correct, they should be correcting the record as soon as possible.” Mr Musk’s barrage of attacks against the Prime Minister have dominated Westminster over recent days and led Sir Keir to accuse critics of spreading “lies and misinformation”.
