Elon Musk to ‘summon MPs to US to explain threats to American citizens’
World’s richest man responds to UK parliamentarians saying they will call him to testify about X’s role in spreading disinformation during riots
Elon Musk has said UK MPs “will be summoned to the United States of America to explain their censorship and threats to American citizens” in a fresh escalation of tensions between the world’s richest man and Labour.
Musk, who has been a fixture at the side of Donald Trump since his re-election as US president, was responding to a Guardian report on Wednesday that the Commons’ science and technology select committee would call him to give evidence in the new year in its inquiry into the spread of harmful content on social media after the August riots.
