Do you agree with our readers? Have your say on these MetroTalk topics and more in the comments. It appears the inevitable clash of personalities between Elon Musk and Nigel Farage has happened, with Musk declaring Farage ‘doesn’t have what it takes’ to lead Reform (Metro, Mon).

The question is, who will Donald Trump side with after this? The answer is neither, because he has already used both of them to get re-elected and he will dump both of them in the same way he dumped other prominent supporters after his first election win. Carlos, Lancashire.

It was a foregone conclusion before the weekend that it would be Teflon Nigel, now things are not so sure. Odious Elon clearly prefers Tommy Robinson, AKA Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, as the gob for the top job. The British public will never accept someone like Tommy because his racist demonstrations against so-called Asian child grooming gangs are not matched by similar protests where white people have offended – Downside and Ampleforth schools and the Church of England’s soft touch with child abusers.
