Fuck OFF Elon Musk

1000 replies

Elon Musk appeared via video link today at Tommy Robinson's Racist March wittering on about woke mind viruses and calling for the dissolution of parliament.

All I really want to say is FUCK OFF ELON MUSK.

Elon Musk should fuck off because a migrant wasn’t deported?

The thread has covered the weekend demonstrations, ergo…

Half way down the page there's someone who looks like the spitting image of Jonathon Gullis - how strange

Teresa66 is talking about the so called "migrant auditors" I reckon. Nasty, nasty, nasty people, with criminal records. Hence the reluctance to post links.

The first deportation of a Channel migrant under Sir Keir Starmer’s “one in, one out” deal with France was cancelled at the last minute.

The Telegraph understands that one migrant was due to be flown from Heathrow to Paris on an Air France passenger flight on Monday, but the flight was postponed amid protests by charities and threats of legal action.

Doh!

Where does it state in that article that it was cancelled?

No most of that was from policies put in place by the previous government

Which policies?

I was feeling quite depressed by this thread. Then I looked at the voting.

It reminded me that the noxious stream of vitriol spewed by the likes of TR is coming from a frightened minority.

85% agree with the OP.

Its just a few who follow this line of thought and are wittingly or unwittingly sowing more division and hate. So instead of feeling depressed I have taken heart that most people are not xenophobic, ignorant racists.

TR et al appear to have given license to split with common decency and humanity (free speech, my arse, more like hate speech), but they are not winning. They are just noisy.

I didn't bother to vote due to the ridiculous voting options. I expect the vast majority of people that are broadly supportive of Saturday's march did the same.

Well if I’m making you question you sanity and your own powers of reasoning with a couple of posts on mumsnet- you can’t be that sure of your “facts”.

You scared bae?

But just to pick up a couple of your points - the 'mother' being imprisoned for a tweet wasn't just posting in the heat of the moment - she had history of posting inflammatory social media. She was encouraging people already ready to commit acts of violence to burn down a migrant hostel with people inside it:

'Mass deportation now, set fire to all the fucking hotels full of the bastards for all I care, while you’re at it take the treacherous government and politicians with them. I feel physically sick knowing what these families will now have to endure. If that makes me racist so be it.”

Why does her being a mother make that OK?

The women standing outside abortion clinics in silent prayer are usually surrounded by mocked up photos of screaming foetuses. Causing women entering clinics further anguish on what may be already an incredibly day for them. If the praying women are really praying for the women entering the clinics, they could pray from home couldn't they, rather than from their intimidatory kerbside stands.

She was encouraging people already ready to commit acts of violence to burn down a migrant hostel with people inside it:

'Mass deportation now, set fire to all the fucking hotels full of the bastards for all I care, while you’re at it take the treacherous government and politicians with them. I feel physically sick knowing what these families will now have to endure. If that makes me racist so be it.”

Why does her being a mother make that OK?

Can you please explain why you think her tweet makes her guilty of encouraging people to burn down a hotel?

'for all I care' is a commonly used rhetorical device when expressing an opinion.

https://ludwig.guru/s/for+all+I+care

Expressing an opinion about how little you care, is not the same as encouraging other people to act out your 'for all I care' rhetorical device. Opinions should be considered free speech - even if you find them offensive.

She received very poor legal advice to plead guilty and I seriously doubt if she'd have been convicted by a jury.

Why did you attend a rally for a cause you don't believe in?

Even if I agreed with what he said on a particular issue, I wouldn't march in a Tommy Robinson-organised rally. If he merely organised a free candy-floss giveaway, I still wouldn't turn up.

I don't understand why people would want to be associated with him.

Yes this march was organised by SYL/TR. If you go marching with him you are marching with him and everything he stands for. It isn’t really a nuanced thing. I find it baffling that non racists or moderate, reasonable people would throw their hat in with SYL. It seems very naive. I wouldn’t go on an antifa demo for the same reason.

DoingAway · 16/09/2025 07:31

I feel quite frightened by all of this at the moment and the violent undercurrents. I’m frightened for my child and for her Muslim friends. I think Musk is unhinged and very dangerous to us because of the resources he has at his disposal.

What would have been a voting option that you would have clicked?

You don't want Elon Musk to fuck off but you also don't welcome foreign meddling in our politics, so what do you want?

Here's the judgement in the Lucy Connolly case. She's no heroine - sounds like a thoroughly nasty piece of work tbh. All keyboard warrior until she's called out then turns into a snivelling wretch. So far, straight out of the bully handbook.

I should imagine her sentence reflected the timing of her inflammatory tweets - inciting people during riots. What a queen. 🙄.

And, judging by the wild upward exaggeration of the numbers attending the march by supporters, I'm sure if there were a lot of march supporters on MN I think they'd be rushing to vote for hero Elon (vote early, vote often etc). But, crickets.

I fear for my children and their friends too, as they're living in a Country where we have a constant stream of (mostly) men, with no genuine identification, coming over on boats and living in our communities.
One of these men attacked and attempted to rape a friend of mine, and although he was caught, he barely got a slap on the wrist and is still over here free to attack other women.
I'm not at all saying that these men are all dangerous and untrustworthy, because they're not, but it's easier for them to get away with crime because of their lack of identity, and you've no idea of their criminal history because of this.

Nagginthenag · 16/09/2025 07:52

And yet you're still ignoring the fact that most assaults are perpetrated by a woman or child's closest relatives or friends, not by someone unknown to them. You're turning immigrants into bogeymen.

Most assaults are perpetrated by a woman? Really?
Don't you think that it's men who usually commit rape?

Lemonandorangecheescake · 16/09/2025 08:00

Don't be so ridiculous. I've already said that they're obviously not all troublemakers.

Nagginthenag · 16/09/2025 08:02

More disingenuous gaslighting. What a surprise. Reread the post. Perpetrated by a woman or child's closest relatives. Closest relatives. Husband/partner, father, son, brother, uncle, family friend.

An oddly high number of the anti immigration protesters arrested following last year's riots had previous convictions for domestic abuse - abh, gbh, sexual assault etc.

No, they're not. Yet here we are, with marches, riots, incitement against immigrants which affects each and every one of them.

Like a PP I am considerably more concerned about the atmosphere engendered by half mast flags and anti immigration marches, by gatherings of fascist organisations at war memorials (Ashington Northumberland) than I am about immigrants.

What about the per capita figures?

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14599087/foreign-nationalities-arrested-sex-offences.html

If Sudan's rate was applied to the home-born population in England and Wales, it would equate to approximately 500,000 arrests.Yet cops only nicked 44,000 people for sexual offences across all nationalities in the year to April 2024.

...

Using Afghanistan as an example, Census data shows there were 27,850 people born there without British citizenship living here in 2021.According to the FOIs, there were at least 281 arrests of Afghan nationals for sex offences during the 12-month spell. This equated to a rate of 1,009 per 100,000.Similar analyses by the Centre for Migration Control estimated a rate of around 50 per 100,000 for Britons.

Why do people do this? Is your bonkers open borders virtue signalling so important to your ego, that you're willing to import these unknown and unvetted men. Men that have already demonstrated their untrustworthiness by paying criminals to help them enter the UK illegally.

The foreign nationalities most likely to be arrested for sex offences

Police made 8,500 arrests of foreign nationals for sexual offences including rape in 2024 and start of 2025.

You have deliberately misread that and you know it.

noblegiraffe · 16/09/2025 08:14

A large number of Tommy Robinson's EDL mates have convictions for paedophilia.

A large percentage of those arrested in the Southport riots have a history of domestic violence.

Shall we compare per capita rates and wonder why child abuse and violence against women and girls is so prevalent among the racist?

Nagginthenag · 16/09/2025 08:17

No open borders virtue signalling from me. Your lovely graph, published by the Daily Mail, with no background analysis, room for profiling or bias, no reference to all the assaults perpetrated by men of every background which go unreported. No data regarding convictions. No details of stop and search patterns and idiculous extrapolations.

Edited

Then factor in the age and sex of those migrant numbers and compare that with the rates for UK citizens of a similar demographic (hint - it tends to be young men).
When you have those figures you can say something useful. But that wouldn't make a good Daily Mail clickbait 'these immigrants are all rapey bastards' headline would it.

The Radio 4 'more or less" programme had a very good review of this last week. It's worth a listen - I think it's available as a podcast.
