Chancellor Rachel Reeves has told the BBC she wants to stop top British technology firms and scientists "drifting abroad" to make money. She said she wants "the pattern to end", adding that the government was investing £2. The Conservatives said the government "wanted to row back on Brexit" and criticised it for "blaming anyone but themselves for their economic failures". She also said plans to reintegrate the UK into European energy markets, part of the post-Brexit reset, would also help keep energy prices down. Reeves is also expected to say the UK will "achieve the fastest AI adoption in the G7" thanks in part to its tech investment. She will add that quantum computing will create 100,000 UK jobs.
