UK Minister’s appeal to the world’s richest person elicited a surprising response from Elon Musk.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

London: <\/b><\/p>\n

It’s not just fake accounts and the financial predicament of his company that are concerning Twitter’s new owner Elon Musk – he’s also getting to grips with a British slang term for nonsense.<\/p>\n

Britain’s Northern Ireland minister Chris Heaton-Harris had called on Musk to act on fake news after he took to Twitter to dismiss false reports that he was resigning his government post.<\/p>\n

“Someone has sent a fake e-mail to press outlets saying I’ve resigned. This is totally untrue,” Heaton-Harris said late on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

“I hope one of @elonmusk first moves is to eliminate fake news on Twitter … Very exciting I know, but complete and utter tosh,” he added.<\/p>\n

Hello Twitter!
Someone has sent a fake e-mail to press outlets saying I’ve resigned.
This is totally untrue. I hope one of @elonmusk<\/a> first moves is to eliminate fake news on Twitter\u2026
Very exciting I know, but complete and utter tosh.<\/p>\n

\u2014 Chris Heaton-Harris MP (@chhcalling) November 9, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

His appeal to the world’s richest person elicited a surprising response from Musk, who asked: “What does a tosh look like?”<\/p>\n

Some of the thousands who viewed the exchange suggested Musk was joking, while others were keen to provide him with an explanation.<\/p>\n

“It’s a slightly grittier form of piffle. Not dissimilar to hogwash,” one British radio presenter helpfully posted.<\/p>\n
