Elon Musk predicts civil war will break out across Britain in grave warning of migration 'reckoning'

Elon Musk has doubled down on his prediction that civil war will erupt in Britain in the coming decades as the country faces a migration-fuelled "reckoning".

In recent months, the SpaceX founder has frequently warned of unrest erupting in Britain as a consequence of high levels of migration of people opposed to the West.

Mr Musk has described the prospect of civil war breaking out in the near future as "inevitable".

In an interview with The Economist, the tech tycoon refused to back down on his prediction.

“If you have a large and growing, rapidly growing, group of people whose beliefs are antithetical to western beliefs, at some point there will be a reckoning,” he warned.

Mr Musk said he has visited Britain “literally a hundred times” - though admitted his last trip came a "few years ago".

But when the outlet probed him on why he was making his forecasts, the X boss was forced to clarify he was not, in fact, racist.

“My partner is half-Indian and I have four children with her," he said. "One of them was named after a famous Indian physicist. So I would say I’m not racist.

“If you look at the people that are employed at my companies, we have senior executives of all races. I don’t think there’s any racism there.”

The Tesla CEO and X owner was then asked whether he is anti-Muslim, to which he said: “If people are coming to a country with antithetical views, I am against that.

“I’m against rape and murder, I’m against the imposition of rules and laws that are contrary to what we’ve come to accept in the West."

Mr Musk added it was a "crying shame" that mainstream media outlets refuse to "recognise" the threat facing Western civilisation.

As Britain grapped with violent protests in the wake of Axel Rudakubana's murders in Southport, Mr Musk became embroiled with a spat with Sir Keir Starmer after warning civil war was "inevitable".

At the time, the former Prime Minister had declared: "We will not tolerate attacks on mosques or on Muslim communities."

The tech tycoon replied: "Shouldn’t you be concerned about attacks on *all* communities?" - and branded him "Two-tier Keir".

Downing Street at the time said there was "no justification" for Mr Musk's civil war remarks.

"What we've seen in this country is organised violent thuggery that has no place either on our streets or online," they added.

Then, when unrest broke out in Southampton after Vickrum Digwa was sentenced for murdering Henry Nowak, Kemi Badenoch warned that tensions over identity politics could lead to civil war.

The Tory leader cautioned: "Parties which do that, they may benefit in the short term but in the long term that's how you end up with civil war."

Downing Street pushed back against her suggestion, insisting Britain remained a "reasonable and tolerant" country.

“When we have a terrible case like Henry's, we react calmly, as his family have done," a spokesman added.
