8:22Now PlayingEd Davey is the latest in a long line of British MPs to be targeted by Elon Musk. In a tweet on Tuesday, the tech billionaire said, "What exactly do I fail to understand about your failure to stop the mass rape of little girls in Britain, you snivelling cretin?"
This came after the Lib Dem leader called on the US ambassador to ask why an incoming US official is suggesting the UK government should be overthrown.
In a series of posts on Twitter in recent days, Musk has attacked Prime Ministers Gordon Brown and Sir Keir Starmer over what he alleges — without evidence — they were “complicit” in failing to combat mass rapes of young women and girls.
Musk's intervention has resurfaced the findings of a series of inquiries into child sexual abuse across England and Wales involving at least 1,400 victims.
Musk has also come under significant criticism for his attacks on Labour’s Jess Philipps, Secretary of State for Safeguarding and Violence Against Women and Girls, claiming she was a “rape genocide apologist”.
