Political commentator Paula London has made a striking claim that Nigel Farage and Elon Musk could “save the West” following their historic meeting at Mar-a-Lago.
The bold statement comes after Reform UK leader Farage and party treasurer Nick Candy met with the tech billionaire for an hour-long discussion at Donald Trump’s Florida resort on Monday.
Speaking to GB News, Paula London said: “Well, I don’t think it’s money. Obviously, it’s a huge issue in politics, but it’s the power of Twitter.
“So many people now decide who they want to vote for because of Twitter. It’s not just about politicians being on TV, obviously he has the platform, he’s put his neck on the line.

“Let’s not forget, if Trump had lost, he could have been arrested for election interference.
“Yeah, Twitter is really going to help people because so many people are trying to silence people on the right around the West, and he won’t let it happen.

“That’s why I’m very proud of him. Those three guys could save the West.”
The meeting, described by Farage as “great” and “historic”, took place at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida.
Farage and Candy said they had “learned a great deal about the Trump ground game” during their discussions with Musk.
The Reform UK leader indicated there would be “ongoing discussions on other areas” following the encounter.

The meeting follows reports that Musk could donate up to £79 million to Reform UK through the British arm of his social media firm X.
Farage has dismissed these claims, telling GB News that if Musk were to donate it would be “nothing like the telephone numbers” that have been reported.
The Reform UK leader explained that his discussions with Musk included detailed analysis of Trump’s victory margins in key swing states.
“I took copious notes, I learnt a huge amount,” Farage said about Musk’s voter engagement strategy.
According to Farage, Musk expressed concern that “the mother country of the English-speaking world is going down the tubes” and agreed that “Britain needs Reform.”
The Reform MP confirmed there would be further negotiations about potential financial support from Musk.
Asked if it could be a six figure sum, Farage responded: “Who’s to say? Wait and see how this all ends up.”
