No 10 forced to correct tweet after forgetting we’re no longer in EU

It was deleted and a new graphic was reposted 45 minutes later.

Downing Street has been forced to correct a tweet after an unfortunate blunder was spotted by eagle-eyed social media users.

The official No 10 account posted a graphic on X – formerly Twitter – saying the UK “is home to twice as many AI companies as any other EU country”.

It was deleted and a new graphic, saying “any EU country” instead, was reposted 45 minutes later.

The UK left the trading bloc in January 2020, after the 2016 referendum.

The post was promoting the government’s investment in artificial intelligence, including an announcement of £13 million for use of the technology in healthcare such as surgical robotics.

The UK leads on AI at home – a reason why many companies want to invest here.@GoogleDeepMind was founded in the UK over a decade ago.

And we're home to more AI companies than any EU country, with @OpenAI & @AnthropicAI both opening their first international office here. pic.twitter.com/n4DSTED0D8

Since you are here

Since you are here, we wanted to ask for your help.

Journalism in Britain is under threat. The government is becoming increasingly authoritarian and our media is run by a handful of billionaires, most of whom reside overseas and all of them have strong political allegiances and financial motivations.

Our mission is to hold the powerful to account. It is vital that free media is allowed to exist to expose hypocrisy, corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. But we can't do it without you.
