(5MinNewsBreak.com) – Outspoken tech billionaire Elon Musk has unleashed a scathing attack on the U.K. government, branding it a “tyrannical police state.”
His bold statements come amid growing frustration with Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s leadership and a petition for a new general election.
Musk’s harsh rebuke of the British government has sent shockwaves through political circles.
The Tesla and X (formerly Twitter) CEO pulled no punches when he declared, “The people of Britain have had enough of a tyrannical police state.”

The tech mogul’s criticism comes at a time of political chaos in Britain. Although a recent July election ushered in a Labour government, Musk has backed a petition calling for a new general election.
Musk’s conflict with Starmer’s government has been ongoing throughout the year.
The billionaire entrepreneur has voiced his concerns regarding the country’s direction under its current leftist leadership.
In a pointed comment on Starmer’s declining approval ratings, Musk suggested, “The voice of the people is a great antidote.”
The tension between Musk and the U.K. government reached a boiling point after the tragic killing of three schoolgirls in Southport.
Musk accused the government of backing a biased justice system, further fueling the country’s debate about law and order.
Musk also raised eyebrows when he shared a documentary by jailed far-right activist Tommy Robinson with his followers.
The tech billionaire questioned Robinson’s imprisonment, who was jailed for breaching a court order related to a libelous documentary.
The U.K. government’s response to Musk’s criticisms has been telling. Downing Street attempted to refute Musk’s claims of an inevitable civil war in the U.K.
In a clear snub, Starmer’s administration did not invite the influential billionaire to a major investment summit, which only deepened the rift between Musk and the British government.
Musk’s outspoken criticism of the U.K. government highlights the growing frustration among conservatives with leftist policies and perceived government overreach.
