Elon Musk the SpaceX owner has broken his silence on Tuesday afternoon over what could be a Presidential sum of money for Reform UK.

Today Nick Candy defected from the Tories as a major financial donor and will donate a “Seven-figure” sum of money to Reform UK and next year he will join the Party as Nigel Farage’s Treasurer.

Farage has said, “Reform UK is building a winning team to change British politics forever,” then Musk replied.

The Tesla owner asked, “When is the first electoral opportunity?”

Farage replied, “The first step is the English County Council elections on May 1, 2025. Britain needs Reform.”

Farage wrote on social media that the former Tory MP Aidan Burley joined Reform UK Christmas lunch, he said, “Death by a thousand defections.”

Anderson said, “This is huge news and will send political shockwaves throughout Westminster.

“The political tsunami continues!”

Musk is “very supportive of what Reform is trying to do,” Farage said, he added that no discussions of any donations has taken place from the tech billionaire “at this stage.”

He told Sky News, “Elon Musk is very supportive of what Reform is trying to do, supportive of me personally. And we’ve got good connections with him, and Nick’s got good connections with him as well.”

Candy told GB News that Reform UK would “love” it if Musk were to donate to the party.

He told The People’s Channel, “If he wants to donate, we’d love him to donate,” having refused to answer questions in Westminster just minutes prior.”

Earlier this month we reported that senior Tories and business leaders are fearful that the Tesla chief Elon Musk could donate $100 million to help make Nigel Farage the next British Prime Minister.

Musk spent more than $200 million to fund Donald Trump during the US election campaign and should Farage receive this donation it will be seen as a “f**k you Starmer” payment.

Musk has taken a real dislike to Sir Keir Starmer since he become the Prime Minister and has openly called him “two-tier Keir” over the way he is allowing the police to tackle certain groups in the UK.

The SpaceX owner has criticized Starmer over the policing of free speech and the early release of prisoners.

Musk wrote, “I don’t think anyone should go to the UK when they’re releasing convicted paedophiles in order to imprison people for social media posts.”
