Today marks a defining moment for Defence Holdings PLC. The company is proud to announce that it has secured and commenced its first revenue-generating contract with the UK Ministry of Defence through a direct award mechanism. The contract relates to the testing and deployment of an integrated intelligence, decision-support and operational effects capability designed to fuse open-source and classified intelligence into a single analytical platform, generate Courses of Action and support rapid, human-controlled deployment of authorised effects across cyber, information and supply-chain domains. This milestone represents Defence Holdings' transition into a revenue-generating business and an important step in our mission to build and deploy sovereign software capabilities for defence customers. #ALRT

There is one single publicly listed pure-play company working at the intersection of Sovereign AI and defence - and that's Defence Holdings #ALRT If we want to stop seeing all of our best start-ups leave for the US, and if we want innovation in defence and AI, the government needs to value the entrepreneur ecosystem properly.
This week the most advanced AI model on the planet got switched off by a foreign government. British researchers were studying it. British companies were testing it. British hospitals were piloting it. Not any more. This isn't an AI story. It's the story of every industry we used to lead. Britain has some of the best AI talent in the world. DeepMind was built here. Our AI Safety Institute writes the rules other countries follow. We have the researchers, the universities, the standards. What we don't have is the power stations to run the data centres, the planning system to build them, or the industrial base to make the chips. So the work happens here and the value lands somewhere else. We invent. Others build. Others decide. Then we read about it on Saturday morning. Same story as the kit our soldiers don't have. Same story as the factories we used to. I spent nine months in government making this argument inside the room. I'll make it louder from outside.

Good day for Wales Cricket. First time a welsh side has qualified for the Super 12’s.
🎙️ “I think we’ve got a really good group, and the vibes are getting better and better.” 🗣️ Reflections from the skipper today after two strong efforts with the bat himself.

🏏 GAME 1 RESULT 🟢 @BucksCricket (173-9) get over the line by 3 runs despite a 33 ball half century from the skipper Hurle and an outstanding 4-17 from Romano Franco. 🕰️ Game 2 to start at 2.30pm (Wales batting) with our NRR unlikely to see us qualify unfortunately.
