Well done to Elon for calling out the UK government, judiciary and police on X regarding the Muslim grooming gangs, something that the mainstream media wants nothing to do with.
It's a matter of record that grooming gangs are not a muslim problem but an everyone problem. The Home Office's own analysis under the last government clearly illustrated this.
The "muslim grooming gang" trope is indeed an example of what a disgrace our mainstream media is but not in the way you imply. Many mainstream newspapers were 'duped' into believing and printing unsubstantiated bollocks about there being a problem specifically with Muslim gangs, on the back of a report by the discredited Quilliam Foundation which laid the problem at the door of muslims. It seemed that because there were some Asian heritage people involved in the foundation the press took their analysis as legit. Turns out that when some proper researchers looked at it, it was all bollocks and made up gibberish. But by then most of our press had gone with it and disgracefully a significant number of our MPs too.
No doubt there were some shocking cases involving Muslims but the real question is why did the press only report on these when the.problem is much more widespread? And why did they not do the basic journalistic job of verifying the information they were being fed on the subject?
Musk isn't some of champion of the truth, he's a bad actor who operates solely from self-interest and regularly amplifies things that are simply untrue.
Anyone who wants to take back control of our country needs to start by fucking off the malign influence of foreign businessmen and powers who would seek to destabilise us. To me allowing ourselves to be manipulated by billionaires who don't even live on these shores is the direct opposite of sovereign control. It's barking mad.
