It's official! Elon Musk owns Twitter

After months of legal drama, bad memes, and will-they-or-won’t-they-chaos, Elon Musk has completed his $44bn (£38.1bn) takeover of Twitter. 

According to reports, Musk sacked chief executive Parag Agrawal, as well as the company's chief financial officer and its head of legal policy, trust and safety.  

The reports came hours before the court-appointed deadline for Musk to seal his on-again, off-again deal to purchase the social media network.

Musk tweeted on Thursday that he was buying Twitter "because it is important to the future of civilization to have a common digital town square, where a wide range of beliefs can be debated in a healthy manner."
