British MPs want to hold US billionaire to account after widespread claims of rioting.
Labour politicians believe social media played a major role in the events that unfolded on the streets of Southport.
The UK government has raised concerns about Elon Musk's social networking site, which may have promoted disinformation and racial hatred, Politico reports.
As the British far right took to the streets to protest against migrants, social media was flooded with hundreds of messages.
Parliamentarians want to summon Musk and discuss with him how his social network's algorithms work.
The service's administration also raised questions. One Laborite said he had personally seen several offensive statements and complained about them, but management had not removed them.
It is noted that British parliamentarians want to communicate not only with Musk, but also with other heads of IT companies.
