Elon Musk has criticised the UK Government for a 'rapidly increasing erosion of Britain' during Tommy Robinson's 'Unite the Kingdom' protest in London on Saturday.

Speaking by videolink to protesters, the Tesla founder said: 'I think there's something beautiful about being British and what I see happening here is a destruction of Britain, initially a slow erosion but rapidly increasing erosion of Britain with massive uncontrolled migration.

'A failure by the government to protect innocent people including children who are getting gang-raped.

'It's unreal the government has failed in its duty to protect its citizens which is a fundamental duty of government.'

He also claimed that 'there's this genuine risk of rape and murder and the destruction of the country and the dissolution of the entire way of life.
