Deputy Paul Murphy accused the billionaire X owner of trying to divide society and “whip up hate” against migrants and LGBTQ people.

Taking to his own social media platform X, formerly Twitter, Mr Musk urged the Irish and British public to take action against mass migration before it’s too late.

He also used an emoji of a pair of crossed swords at the end of the post.

He stated: “People of the great nations of Britain & Ireland, rally NOW to save your beautiful countries. It's now or never. Fight, fight, fight!”
