PM comes out fighting after claiming predecessor ‘asked me to do something I wasn’t prepared to do’
Move along, move along now. Nothing to see here. That was very much the subtext of Rishi Sunak’s speech to open London Tech week. Rather he was just talking Tech Bro to Tech Bro. He was the man who really got AI. Understood both its risks and potential. Stick with him. The Tories were the party of the future.
Only it wasn’t long before the past caught up with him. It turned out that not everyone was quite as interested in what the prime minister had to say about AI as he was. Almost inevitably, first came a question about Boris Johnson and the resignation honours list. Just what had gone on that had led to Johnson standing down as an MP?
