Fund Or Fade Powering A Sovereign Quantum Britain
A call for mission-led investment to secure UK leadership in the next frontier of national interest.
When Britain built the world’s first programmable computer at Bletchley Park, we began an era of digital supremacy, only to watch others capture the spoils. Now, as the quantum revolution dawns, we risk repeating that mistake. Fund or Fade: Powering a Sovereign Quantum Britain warns that while UK scientists lead the world in discovery, our fragmented policy, weak infrastructure, and dependence on foreign capital leave us vulnerable to losing the industries born from our own genius.

Defend or Depend The Battle For Defence Sovereignty
Defence Sovereignty: Laying the Groundwork for Defence?
When Britain’s technological Crown Jewel, ARM Holdings, was acquired by SoftBank in 2016, Britain departed with its sovereign capability in chip design. It has long been the story of successful British businesses – built with British tools, by British brains, in British sheds, only to be snapped up and shipped off to far-away realms. Now our defence sector faces the same fate.

The risks of AI and how blockchain can solve them
The 21st Century is one of sublime and rapid innovation. Our work, communities, entertainment, and the very columns on which we have built our society, has changed beyond comprehension in the last decade. With all of the upsides of digitisation, artificial intelligence, and interconnection, the downsides are prescient and concerning. Unlike previous revolutions, however, it is technology rather than regulation, which can stem the uncertainty and trust, building credible and wealth- creating solutions for society. For us at Labour Tech, this conversation is about demonstrating these arguments – showing how blockchain in particular will safeguard our democracy and secure our nation’s economic future.
