According to the Financial Times, the UK Parliament might summon Elon Musk to appear before a committee. They want him to explain X’s role in spreading misinformation.
The West is corrupt, similar to Brazil. Could Elon Musk eventually be arrested like Pavel Durov (Telegram founder) in France? If Kamala Harris wins, the UK will have her support and perhaps strong encouragement.
THE STORY
Labour politician Dawn Butler said Parliament would like to have Musk as ‘a witness.’ It concerns X’s role in spreading misinformation.
Butler is campaigning to chair the House of Commons Science and Technology Select Committee. She revealed in an interview with the Financial Times that Musk is among the key figures she intends to invite to testify before the committee on the platform’s practices. Musk is “someone we’d like to invite” as a witness.
Dawn Butler is competing for the Chair of a key committee of MPs with this woman, Chi Onwruh, who agrees with her on the issue of speech and Musk.
British officials said they faced resistance from X over requests to take down posts deemed a threat to England’s national security.
Musk is “someone we’d like to invite” as a witness,” Butler told the Financial Times. “It is vital for the committee to formally examine the use of algorithms in pushing hateful material — and the moderation of such content — on X and other social media platforms.”
In July, British officials said they faced resistance from X over requests to take down posts deemed a threat to national security. This was during the worst riots in England in more than a decade.
Musk also addressed far-left Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer on the platform during the unrest. He said that “civil war is inevitable” in the UK. Musk did not immediately respond to a request for comment on Butler’s statement.
I doubt the Civil War is inevitable. The Brits keep putting people in prison for years for posts they don’t like. That’s enough to make people cave. We saw it with the J6 protest.
The ‘words’ of the British Chief Constable appear very Cromwellian…thank heavens I have a Cavalier bent rather than a Round Headed one…
A lot of the people persecuting Trump are liberal non-white females ( Letitia James, Judge Chutkan, Fani Willis etc ) and now two liberal non-white females are persecuting Musk who is a white male and Kamala is a liberal non-white female who agrees with the females above There is a war on white males, a witch hunt on white males.… Read more »
The republicans in congress should immediately subponea Dawn Butler before a house committee to investigate why MPs from Britain are harassing American citizens.
Britain is a communist country. Hell no.
An invitation to an illegal entrapment. They have already stated their intentions. To manipulate information and the facts.
They’re used to having facebook and twitter censor all conservative content out of their newsfeeds for them, and living in a bubble of illusion. Now their having to deal with reality.
An invitation best ignored….
