The billionaire entrepreneur who significantly boosted US President-elect Donald Trump’s image ahead of the 2024 US presidential election may be taking steps that could ultimately lead to change in British politics. There is. According to media reports, Musk plans to donate $100 million to Nigel Farage’s far-right party, Reform Britain. Mr Farage confirmed to British media that there had been discussions about a donation, but there was no official word on whether the donation would amount to $100 million.
Farage and Musk’s meeting took place on Monday (December 16) at Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida. Later, the Reform British leader wrote in the Telegraph:
“There is little doubt that Musk’s contribution to the scale of President Trump’s victory should not be underestimated. He has copious notes on how turnout, voter registration, etc. have increased. I am back and will do all this as part of the professionalisation of the party,” Mr Farage wrote.
He exuded confidence in Musk’s support for the British Reform Party. Mr Farage said in his contribution that Mr Musk “described Labor and the Conservative Party as one party, leaving no doubt that Mr Musk was right behind us”.
Mr Farage acknowledged speculation that Mr Musk was making large donations to the party, but declined to specify the amount.
“Following such intense media speculation, financial issues will inevitably be discussed and negotiations will continue in that regard,” Farage said in the article.
