Elon Musk jumps on the stage as Republican presidential nominee former President Donald Trump speaks during a campaign rally at the Butler Farm Show on October 5, 2024, in Butler, Pa.
MOST people in Britain have an unfavourable opinion of far-right enablers Elon Musk and Donald Trump, according to a new Ipsos survey published today.
The poll of 1,139 adults suggests that 63 per cent of Britons dislike both the US president-elect and South African tech tycoon.
Most of the public — 53 per cent — thought Mr Trump’s presidency will be negative for global security and conflict.
Forty-three per cent thought it would have a negative impact on the British economy.
Concerningly, younger Britons were found to be more favourable towards the right-wing duo compared with older generations.
Some 31 per cent of 18-34s were favourable towards Trump compared with 15 per cent of those aged over 55.
Similarly, 28 per cent of 18-34s were favourable towards Mr Musk, compared with just 8 per cent over 55.
Reform UK voters were split on the SpaceX founder, who recently said the party needed to replace its leader Nigel Farage, with 40 per cent favourable and 38 per cent unfavourable.
