From the Mail:
 

Labour’s Ed Miliband was being blamed today after OpenAI – the tech giant behind ChatGPT – put its UK data centre on hold.

The California-based firm pointed to high energy costs and regulatory uncertainty for its decision to pause its Stargate UK project.


Stargate UK was announced in September last year as part of a combined £31billion investment in Britain by US tech firms.

The announcement of the investment, as well as a UK-US tech prosperity deal, was made during US President Donald Trump‘s state visit to Britain.

Not being from England, I don't know for sure which way he swings in his plan for Britain.  Does he swing Islamic or Communist or some sort of mix?

From what I understand, real estate costs would pretty much kill any economic viability.  There's a reason our ancestors left that hell hole.  They were tired of living shoulder to shoulder with neighbors.
