Lib Dem leader Ed Davey: “I've written to Keir Starmer, Kemi Badenoch and Nigel Farage, urging them to join me in condemning Elon Musk's dangerous remarks inciting violence yesterday. “As leaders, we must stand together and make clear Musk will face serious consequences for these actions.”

Rt Hon Sir Edward Davey MP
HOUSE OF COMMONS
LONDON SWIA OAA
The Rt Hon Sir Keir Starmer MP,
Prime Minister
Sent by email
Sunday 14 September 2025
Dear Prime Minister,
The attempts this weekend by Elon Musk to sow discord and incite violence on our streets represent a serious and dangerous interference in our democracy. Speaking at the "Unite the Kingdom" march organised by far-right hate preacher Tommy Robinson, Musk told the crowd that "violence is coming" and that "you either fight back or you die".
The United Kingdom has always prided itself on resolving disagreements through debate, through the ballot box, and through the rule of law. The recent conduct of Elon Musk - deliberately spreading misinformation, stoking anger and encouraging violence - represents a reckless and dangerous assault on those values. This attempt to endanger public safety and meddle in our politics must be met with clarity and resolve.
At times like this, it is vital that the people of our country see their leaders united. That is why l am writing to urge each of you to put party politics aside and join me in publicly condemning these dangerous remarks, and to jointly consider what sanctions Elon Musk should face as a consequence. We must make clear that no individual, however wealthy or powerful, can get away with using their platform to inflame tensions and incite violence.
At the same time, we must uphold freedom of speech and the right to peaceful protest without fear of violence, intimidation, or manipulation from abroad.
The strength of Britain lies in our shared commitment to mutual respect, decency and the rule of law. If we fail to speak with one voice now, we risk emboldening those who want to threaten these values and undermine our democracy.
I hope you will join me in making this important stand.
Yours sincerely,
Eer Da
Ed Davey
MP for Kingston and Surbiton
Leader of the Liberal Democrats

A man at Tommy Robinson’s Unite the Kingdom rally in London threatened Keir Starmer, saying he should be “assassinated.” HOPE not hate said speeches were “extraordinarily extreme” as violence broke out and police faced projectiles. #London

The typical pensioner and typical child’s household income were once very similar, but have diverged. In cash terms, the equivalised household income gap between pensioners and children has grown from roughly zero in the early 2000s to over £5,000 by 2023-24 and potentially over £7,000 by 2029-30.

The divergence in child versus pensioner income trends over both halves of the 2020s is also not new. In 2002-03 pensioners and children had very similar typical equivalised household incomes, but between then and 2023-24 the median pensioner income grew by 32 per cent and the child figure by 7 per cent (with the typical working-age income growing by 8 per cent). In cash terms, the equivalised household income gap between pensioners and children has grown from roughly zero in the early 2000s to over £5,000 by 2023-24 and potentially over £7,000 by 2029-30. As we explore below, this is also reflected in poverty figures.

It's not just about the broken trust between writer and reader, or all the time, energy and unfounded faith invested by booksellers, but it's also about the important stories still unheard of those living with illness and homelessness that could have been elevated by the industry instead.

It makes me want to sob when they can't even pronounce British place names properly. Dan Jones is a lovely presenter generally, but I want to weep every time he mangles a Welsh name. How hard can it be to find a bloody Welsh person and ask them how to pronounce Gwynedd? 🤦‍♀️

A minimalist illustration showing a packaged charger box labeled "one Union one Charger." The box features an image of a blue charger with the European Union flag symbol and a USB-C cable. The scene is set within a holiday theme, with decorative Christmas trees, ornaments, and gift boxes surrounding the charger box. In the top right corner, there is a small EU flag symbol.
