Donald Trump and Elon Musk undermined Ukraine's defences – directly aiding Putin's war machine. That's beyond the pale. The Prime Minister must stand up to Trump and forge a united front in Europe. We cannot allow Musk and Starlink to gain even more power over our continent.

Mark Hale just wrote a novel! @ver-bat-man.eurosky.social · 22/10/2026 02:13

Sharing this opinion on Xitter is pointless. What's your excuse for continuing to post on Musk's version of Trump's "Truth Social?"

You arw a genocide supporting racist. Fuck you and your party

AJ 🦋 @andjamwar.uk · 21/10/2026 19:03

Still on X, Ed?

Musk's satellites should be terminated from up above. Time for repercussions for not obeying rules of order.

The UK government should be protecting the population from Musk's and Theil's plan to undermine the Country .It's called National Security -Starlink and Palantir are clearly designed to take control .

Get them all out of our country and our continent.

Perryfin @perryfin.bsky.social · 21/10/2026 16:35

Or, anything American.

And allowing him control of some portion of the UK electricity supply.

Don't forget that.

Absolutely this.
Anyone who allows any part of UK infrastructure to be linked to Musk needs to "give their head a wobble."

We have enough problems with the English water industry being exploited by private equity.

Starlink is also used by ETCS , European train control system , which is being rolled out in mainland Europe and the UK , do you really want the chief idiot messing with your train signalling systems !

Well said!👏👏
Canada’s PM Mark Carney has said they’re moving to ban Starlink asap. We should stand with them & do the same!
Musk has proven through X & now Starlink that he’s not on the side of democracy! He should have no business place in 🇬🇧🇨🇦 or 🇪🇺!

PA @panuzis.bsky.social · 21/10/2026 12:33

... but Ed, I read last week that the UK has bought into Musk satellites ...

... surely, we shouldn't be doing that 🤷‍♂️

What a shiteshow the Tяump administration is. Tяump's envoy Witkoff meets Putin in St Petersburg and calls Putin a great humanitarian!

PastaPete @pastapete.bsky.social · 21/10/2026 12:27

Why didn’t you give the PM’s reply?

P. Thomas Johnson 🇨🇦🇬🇧 🤝 🇺🇦 @ptomj.bsky.social · 21/10/2026 12:40

He just gave a non-answer about how all sides need to come round the table to support Ukraine and the UK is working to that end.

Because it's just more fecal syphoning on Burnham's part, he's just as much of a delusional Americanophile and blowhard for anyone that'll whip him hard enough.

He's just another Starmer, only with a more perpetually miserable face.
