Piers Morgan ‘disconcerted’ as he becomes Elon Musk’s latest target in online attack

Elon Musk attacks Reform UK leader Nigel Farage

Elon Musk has personally trolled Piers Morgan on X, his social media platform, in one of his many tweets. The former Good Morning Britain presenter shared his reaction as Elon posted about him.

Musk have previously been obsessively tweeting on X on a wide range of topics. Since the start of the year, he has praised a popular Canadian politician and also slammed Nigel Farage.

Now turning on Piers Morgan, the South African said: "Piers's brain hasn't recieved its software update yet." This prompted Piers to reply on Instagram: "Quite disconcerting news to wake up to.."

Many of Piers' followers couldn't help but react in the comments section. One of his fans said: "Elon just roasting everyone at this point."

A second person also chimed in: "You know you’ve made it when he doesn’t even need to use your surname. I like Elon, make friends. Get him on Unsensored. Will be the interview of the century."

A third also typed: "Ahahahahahahahahaha this is so funny."

Meanwhile, a fourth also said: "Elon is definitely getting a dopamine fix from these tweets he’s putting out."

Elon has been publicly trolling Sir Keir Starmer, which forced the Prime Minister to respond at a press conference. He indirectly accused Musk of spreading "lies and misinformation" about grooming in the UK, and of "cheerleading" for Tommy Robinson.

Musk has also tweeted a poll on whether "America should liberate the people of Britain from their tyrannical government." Later, after Starmer's press conference, he added that Starmer was "deeply complicit in the mass rapes in exchange for votes."

The Prime Minister has rejected calls for a new grooming inquiry, meanwhile Kemi Badenoch, the new Conservative Leader, has called for a national inquiry into the grooming gangs even though the party called for no such thing during their time in power.

Starmer has rejected calls on the basis that the Professor Alexis Jay report from 2022 into child sexual exploitation was comprehensive, and what's needed now is action.
