Elon Musk calls Nigel Farage’s Reform UK ‘Nazis’ as he claims they need ‘race extinction’

Elon Musk has once again weighed in on UK politics as he appeared to call Nigel Farage’s Reform UK ‘Nazis’ in a reply to a tweet.

The Tesla boss wrote on X about Reform UK in reply to a post from Restore Britain, founded by Farage’s former MP Rupert Lowe. Musk also claimed that the UK political party want ‘race extinction’.

Restore Britain claim they were being called “Neo-Nazis” by Reform UK, which prompted a response by the X owner on his platform.

The new political party initial wrote: “Reform have already started calling Restore Britain ‘neo-nazi’. It’s scared.”

Musk, appearing to talk about Reform UK, responded: “THEY are the ones who want race extinction, which means THEY are the Nazis!”

It is not the first time Musk has used X to voice his opinion on Reform UK and Farage. Last year he even called on Farage to resign as leader of the party.

Musk said Farage “doesn’t have what it takes” to lead the party. However, he did not explain his reasoning.

It bizarrely came a month after Musk said Britain “absolutely” needs Reform UK.

There spat appeared to come from a disagreement with Farage over the controversial Tommy Robinson.

Back when Musk was campaigning for “Free Tommy Robinson” when he was serving time in prison last year with speculation about joining Reform.

Farage said: “Elon is a remarkable individual but on this I am afraid I disagree.”

“My view remains that Tommy Robinson is not right for Reform and I never sell out my principles.”

Musk also famously hit out at people who call people ‘facists’ and ‘nazis’.

In November last year following the death of influencer Charlie Kirk, Musk wrote on X: “Falsely labelling non-violent people as “fascist” or “Nazi” should be treated as incitement to murder.”

Reform UK have been contacted regarding Musk’s post.
