New reports suggest that Elon Musk has formed an alliance with Dominic Cummings, a former advisor to Boris Johnson, in a move to influence political changes in the UK. Cummings is believed to have been behind the message calling for new leadership in the British opposition party Reform, hinting at the tension between him and Farage.
The collaboration between Cummings and Musk seems to have intensified due to Musk's upcoming role in the Trump administration, where he is expected to make significant budget cuts. Cummings, known for advocating public sector reductions, is said to be advising Musk on cost-saving strategies.
Meanwhile, Cummings is allegedly assisting Musk in criticizing the British Labour government. Specifically, they have targeted the Labour leader Keir Starmer, accusing him of mishandling cases involving Pakistani immigrants. The duo's joint efforts reflect a growing influence on both sides of the Atlantic.
Amidst speculations, Musk's late-night social media posts have raised questions about the involvement of a third party, presumably Cummings, in shaping his public statements. This comes as Cummings contemplates launching a new political party, the Startup Party, aimed at promoting entrepreneurial values in UK politics.
Cummings' long-standing disdain for Farage dates back to the Brexit referendum era, where he sidelined Farage from the official campaign. With differing visions for the UK's future, the rift between the two has been evident, with Cummings continuing to advocate for innovative political solutions.
Farage, on the other hand, is striving to mend ties with Musk as he faces criticisms regarding his reform capabilities. As Farage prepares to attend Trump's inauguration in the US, he hopes to resolve the misunderstanding with Musk and avoid further conflicts.
