'Should I step down?' | Musk's 'stay or go' poll sums up the crisis he's created at Twitter

Just when you thought you could forget about Elon Musk’s Twitter captaincy, the billionaire’s fate hangs in the balance after millions of the platform’s users voted in favour of him quitting as CEO.

Earlier this week, Musk continued his streak of allowing users to make major decisions about Twitter’s operations – this time to apparently decide whether he should continue as CEO or step down.

More than 17 million people had their say - with 57.5% voting yes, he should go.

At the time of writing, it remained to be seen whether or not Musk will let the result dictate his future, despite him promising to "abide by the results" when originally posting the poll.
