Tensions have risen between Elon Musk and UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer after Musk, the owner of the social media platform X (formerly Twitter), suggested that the UK is on the brink of civil war.

This assertion comes amidst widespread riots across various UK cities, with social media being accused of exacerbating the unrest.

Musk’s comments have sparked a heated exchange with Downing Street, highlighting concerns over the role of social media in inflaming tensions during the ongoing disturbances. The British government has criticized Musk’s remarks as irresponsible, emphasizing the need for unity and calm in addressing the current challenges.

In a comment on his social media site about the violence, Musk said “civil war is inevitable” – a remark that was explicitly rejected by Starmer’s official spokesman, who said there was “no justification” for it.

Musk then replied to a post on X by Starmer, questioning the prime minister’s decision to provide extra protection for mosques.
