Farage to Musk: We can still be friends

LONDON — Nigel Farage believes he can still “build bridges” with Elon Musk — despite the billionaire Donald Trump ally calling for his ouster.

After weeks courting Musk’s support — and cash — the Reform UK leader and Musk’s burgeoning bromance appeared to hit the bumpers this weekend.

Musk called for the release of far-right agitator Tommy Robinson, currently serving jail time for breaching a court order over his repeated libelling of a Syria schoolboy.

Farage, keen to make in-roads with his populist-right, anti-immigration Reform UK outfit has publicly distanced himself from Robinson and declared that he would not be welcome in Reform.

“I have no desire to go to war with Elon Musk,” Farage told LBC Tuesday.

“Of course, I want his support. I will talk to him in America in a few days’ time. I want to mend any broken fences that might exist, I’m sure we can do it,” he added.

But Farage said he wouldn’t change his view on Tommy Robinson, and said he is “on a campaign right now in America” to “educate” people about the jailed activist, who co-founded the race-baiting English Defence League party.

In his initial response to Musk’s tweet calling for him to quit on Sunday, Farage said the X owner is “a remarkable individual but on this I am afraid I disagree.”
