Elon Musk's social media posts are reportedly being investigated by the UK's Counter-Extremism Unit after concerns were raised over a potential 'risk to Britain'.

The Home Office confirmed that the unit is monitoring Musk's tweets, which they believe may trigger violence and accusations of disinformation.
