Elon Musk says minister should be ‘in prison’ in fresh conspiracy claim against Keir Starmer

Tech billionaire also calls for release of far-right activist Tommy Robinson in string of social media posts. Elon Musk has launched another attack on Sir Keir Starmer, accusing the prime minister of failing to prosecute child grooming gangs during his time as director of public prosecutions (DPP).
In a series of posts to his social media platform X, the tech billionaire also called for safeguarding minister Jess Phillips to be jailed for rejecting calls for a public inquiry into historic child abuse in Oldham. Mr Musk has engaged in a long-running war of words with Sir Keir’s administration, which came to a head during last summer’s far-right riots when the social media boss claimed “civil war is inevitable” in the UK.
Posting to X on Thursday, Mr Musk said: “In the UK, serious crimes such as rape require the Crown Prosecution Service’s approval for the police to charge suspects. “Who was the head of the CPS when rape gangs were allowed to exploit young girls without facing justice? Keir Starmer, 2008 -2013.
“Who is the boss of Jess Phillips right now? Keir Stamer. The real reason she’s refusing to investigate the rape gangs is that it would obviously lead to the blaming of Keir Stamer (head of the CPS at the time).”. A number of prosecutions involving grooming gangs were taking place around the time Sir Keir took up his post as DPP.
