  Starmer criticised "the poison of the far right" after tech billionaire Elon Musk continued his online attacks on the PM, calling for him to be put in prison. | ITV National News

The article from ITV News, published on January 6, 2025, discusses Prime Minister Keir Starmer's accusations against Elon Musk for spreading "lies and misinformation" regarding grooming gangs in the UK. Starmer criticized Musk for amplifying claims on social media that suggest a disproportionate involvement of British Pakistani men in grooming gangs, which Starmer argues misrepresents the broader issue of child sexual exploitation. The PM emphasized that such generalizations are not only misleading but also fuel racial tensions and distract from the comprehensive efforts needed to tackle child abuse across all communities. Musk's comments came after a report highlighted the issue, but Starmer insists that the focus should be on protecting victims and ensuring justice, rather than promoting divisive narratives.
