Billionaire Elon Musk is endorsing and threatening to donate millions of
dollars to extremist parties around Europe – from Nigel Farage’s Reform to
Germany’s far-right party, the AfD. But a simple change to election law
would stop the richest man in the world from meddling in Europe’s
democracies.

Tell UK Prime Minister Starmer and all governments: Democracy isn’t for
sale. Fix the rules on political donations.

John,

Elon Musk just poured millions into electing Trump president, now he wants
to buy the next UK election – and he won’t stop there.

Musk also endorsed Germany’s extremist right party, the AfD. But if we act
fast, we can block Musk from using his massive wealth to influence other
countries’ elections.

The UK’s election watchdog says a simple rule change would prevent foreign
companies, like Musk’s X, from using their UK profits to make political
donations.

Let’s join the huge public outcry and push Prime Minister Keir Starmer and
other governments to tighten the rules around political donations and save
our democracies.

isn’t for sale, fix the rules on political donations.

Reports say that the UK government right now is considering changing the
rules. But Starmer won’t act unless he’s got huge public backing for this
move, because he knows that there will likely be a massive backlash from
the far right in the UK and the US.

And if Starmer takes a stand, other governments will be emboldened to
follow suit.

While Musk and his cronies may have deep pockets, we have a massive public
movement that believes democracy isn’t for sale.

For decades, big business has tried to use its money and connections to
sway the outcome of elections. We need political leaders to fix the rules
and protect elections from corporate influence.

rules on political donations by foreign companies.
