13:23Now PlayingElon Musk’s father has demanded Sir Keir Starmer resign as he hit out at Labour for sending England back to 'Tudor times'.
Speaking to LBC’s Andrew Marr, Errol Musk slammed the British government after reports suggested MPs could call for Elon to appear before Parliament following accusations his social media platform X spread 'disinformation'.
It comes after the tech billionaire played a central role in Donald Trump’s ascension to the White House, being named co-chief of the newly created Department of Government Efficiency in the wake of the Republican’s victory.
On reports Elon could be summoned before Parliament, Errol Musk, 78, told LBC: "I think people are in a state of somewhat shock as to what this new government is doing.
"I don't think there's room for something like you've suggested (appearing before Parliament) because what you're suggesting is a sort of rapprochement, and that's not going to happen, not while this government is doing the kind of things that they're doing. I don't, I can't see that happening."
Mr Musk defended comments he and his son have made, branding the UK government 'fascist', as he accused Sir Keir Starmer of 'spoiling' England’s reputation for being on the 'right side' of history.
He said: "England is a beacon of what we consider to be good, and I've always considered to be good, you know, on the side of right, and all that sort of thing.
"And what Starmer has done has sort of spoiled that."
