After greatly enhancing US President-Elect Donald Trump's image in the run-up to US Presidential Election 2024, billionaire entrepreneur may be taking steps which may ultimately effect changes in UK politics. Media reports are saying that Musk is planning to donate a sum to the tune of USD 100 million to Nigel Farage's hard-right Reform UK party. Although Farage has admitted to British media that talks about donation were on, there wasn't any official word as to whether it would amount to USD 100 million.
The meeting between Farage and Musk took place on Monday (December 16) at Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida. The Reform UK leader then wrote in the Telegraph.
“There is little doubt that Musk’s contribution to the scale of the Trump victory is not to be underestimated. I have come home with copious notes of how they increased the turnout, voter registration and so much more, and all of this I intend to implement as part of the professionalisation of our party," said Farage's write-up.
He exuded confidence about Musk's support to Reform UK party. In his write-up, Farage said Musk "described the Labour and Conservative parties as the uniparty and left us with no doubt that he is right behind us."
Farage confirmed the speculation about Musk donating a hefty sum to his party but did not reveal any specific amount.
“Inevitably, following such intense media speculation, the issue of money was discussed, and there will be ongoing negotiations on that score," said Farage in his write-up.
