Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer told the Labour conference yesterday that “tech companies are queuing up to back this country… we are indispensable for the AI future”.
He said in Liverpool: “The energy of the future – we’re backing it. Carbon capture here in Merseyside. The Celtic Freeport in South Wales. Off-shore wind turbines – made and built in Humberside. Brilliant scientists in the heart of middle England. Developing nuclear fusion. Is that broken Britain, conference?
“Look at the investment. Tech companies queuing up to back this country, saying that we are indispensable for the AI future. Now those companies can invest anywhere in the world, but they are choosing us.”
