It’s very easy for politicians to send other people’s children to war. My response to the bloodthirsty elite? You first.

It's been reported by the Telegraph that Benjamin Netanyahu has ordered Israel to support Argentina on the Falklands over Britain. Why should Britain be expected to defend Israel's national interests if Israel's leadership refuses to respect ours? Britain is not obliged to give any foreign government unconditional political or military support. Our foreign policy should be guided by British interests, and British interests only - that is the Restore Britain position. The Falkland Islands are British, and will remain British.

If this week’s cyberattacks have shown us anything, it’s how absolutely necessary it is for the UK to have sovereign AI capabilities. This is now urgent. In the past, the most sophisticated hacking and cyberattack work required considerable expertise, time, and resources. Nation states, intelligence agencies and rogue hacking groups had a substantial advantage - a tiny, tiny number of people. Today, AI is able to rapidly identify these vulnerabilities, so it's much easier for hostile actors to point an AI at a certain piece of software and ask it to find potential exploits - including in the software that runs many of our key institutions across the public and private sectors. It is absolutely conceivable that Britain’s hospitals, defence infrastructure, and national grid could be targeted in future cyberattacks. It's already being planned. If these were to be damaged or disabled as a result, thousands could die. If not more. It is therefore essential that we have the ability to defend ourselves - and the only way to do that is by developing AI sovereignty. Cybersecurity, and actually much of the global economy, will increasingly rely on AI. It will be an essential tool in combating these sophisticated cyberattacks, alongside skilled people and secure domestic infrastructure. As things stand, the dominant players are the US and China, but Britain is well positioned to become a serious third force in AI development. Outside the EU, we have the freedom to set our own domestic regulatory framework, and we could have some of the cheapest energy in the world if we implemented Restore Britain’s energy security strategy. We cannot afford to be beholden to a foreign power for any of the essentials of life. Food, energy, defence and, increasingly, AI. We must build our own infrastructure and train our own models. We must equip our people with the skills to build this industry. Electricians, plumbers, construction workers, and software engineers. Done right, it can bring benefits to our people, but more importantly - the steps outlined here are absolutely essential for our national security.

There shouldn’t be a single Bangladeshi, Pakistani or Indian claiming benefits in our country. NOT A PENNY.
