Calls to ‘proscribe UKIP’ after leader makes Musk-like salute
The LONDON ECONOMIC reports. Nick Tenconi had attended an anti-migrant protest in Portsmouth over the weekend. Equipped with a sound system and a few giddy supporters, he did what most right-wing leaders like to do these days, and copied Donald Trump – by mimicking his signature dance moves. If that wasn’t nauseating enough, worse was to follow. In an abrupt movement, Mr. Tenconi then put his fist to his chest, before saluting his arm upwards. It is a near-perfect match for the gesture performed by Elon Musk in January 2025, which ended up causing global outrage. Searchlight Magazine, who have been investigating the extreme-right for the best part of 50 years, say that this was a ‘clear and deliberate’ action. What’s more, UKIP’s main man initially posted the footage himself – indicating that he was happy to be associated with the salute.
