Keir Starmer appears to bury the hatchet with Elon Musk, bringing Starlink internet into Downing Street _ Hieuuk
The wifi at No 10 must be really bad.
Despite a public spat with Elon Musk on his X social media platform, Sir Keir Starmer appears to have buried the hatchet between him and the tech tycoon as he took delivery of a Starlink internet system yesterday.
Starlink, owned by Mr Musk’s SpaceX rocket company, allows people anywhere in the world to connect to the internet via a system of 6,350 satellites.
It has proved especially useful to Ukrainian forces fighting the Russians, although in recent months they have complained of a poor connection.
Musk and Sir Keir fell out after dozens of thugs were arrested for spreading conspiracy theories and racist comments on X, following the fatal stabbing of three girls in Southport at the end of July.

Sir Keir blamed social media companies such as X for the riots escalating, saying: ‘Let me also say to large social media companies and those who run them: violent disorder was clearly whipped up online.’
But Musk retaliated arguing: ‘If incompatible cultures are brought together without assimilation, conflict is inevitable.’
