14.09.2026The Day Trump Dismissed the AI Slowdown Call

Overnight coverage still lingered on the Russian drone strike on the Ukraine-Poland rail line shortly after Boris Johnson's train passed, with officials suggesting his train may have been targeted.

Attention then shifted to AI. Anthropic chief Dario Amodei's call to slow 'reckless' development, backed by Musk and Altman, sent tech stocks sliding in Asia, Europe and the US. Trump dismissed the warning as a 'sick conspiracy', saying the only guardrail needed was a 'smart president', as Amodei pressed for a mandatory kill switch.

The £72m in crypto donations to Reform UK, carried over from the previous two days, drew renewed calls for a probe and donations cap, with Farage insisting the gifts were 'legal today'.

Late in the day, the SNP, Plaid Cymru and Sinn Fein signed a pact to break up the UK, prompting claims Burnham would be its last prime minister.
