The Burnham Years - Can the new(ish) broom sweep clean?

It’s massively relevant, why give up the advantage you have in AI technology just to meet the requirements of the EU? I read this earlier: Andy Burnham won’t accept EU rules on artificial intelligence as a condition of closer ties, raising new questions about how far he is willing to go in his rethink of Brexit “We have no plans to align with the EU AI Act,” a UK government spokesperson said. “Our approach to AI regulation will continue to be guided by UK priorities, with a focus on keeping people safe and supporting economic growth.” -

It was me who mentioned rejoining the EU. Just think what AI can do for robot mowers. -

My point being if we rejoin the EU then we would have to follow the EU AI regulations, the same regulations that are holding back AI growth in the EU. -

Growth fuelled in part by AI where we are miles ahead of the EU, do we really want to be cosying up to a declining Europe? -

He’s rowed back on a couple of Reeves badly thought plans which is good news. Bit of a non event budget but a little help for some small businesses is welcome. -
I thought you were uspet because he didn't say 'cunt'.

Agree with all of this, thoroughly deserved. A mention too for Bukayo Saka and his 'Socrates' award, another great role model.

What a load of nonsense. I would have voted off the black guy.

Please can you give the exact dimensions of the boxes to back up this ridiculous claim? -

Second, I've said the same. -

Then it’s been debunked. We actually grew in GDP terms over 1% more than Germany since Brexit, those figures suggest we would have grown over 7-9% more than Germany had we stayed, it’s nonsense. I don’t believe there was ever a BoE report suggesting this. Post Brexit investment did drop which was unsurprising given the uncertainty but has recovered to overtake the EU. To suggest we’d be £100bn per annum better off is also nonsense, so much so, you should put it on the side of a bus. I voted to remain (I had a vote in those days), mainly because I could see protracted uncertainty which would be damaging, but we are over that now. I don’t see much benefit in rejoining. Rant over, time for bed!🛌 -

This is the 6-8% additional GDP we would have had if we had stayed in EU, correct? -

What 6-8%? -
......erm, yes you can

Even though the 'Palestinians' have rejected it on several occasions?

It would be a vote for a proper ‘genocide’.
