Comment by Lord Patel of Bradford
Narendra Babubhai Patel KT; Member of the UK House of Lords; crossbench peer
I come from the position of saying that moratoriums will not work. But we can work in co-operation with other nations that have already started regulating, such as South Korea and Australia, as well as work with our AI Security Institute in the United Kingdom, to establish our own boundaries through regulations that will allow innovations to continue.

Quote confirmed via web search. Lord Patel spoke in the UK House of Lords Superintelligent AI debate on 29 January 2026, arguing that moratoriums will not work and advocating for cooperation with South Korea, Australia, and the UK's AI Security Institute. Vote alignment is correct: "against" matches the statement "Ban superintelligence development until safety consensus is reached" since Lord Patel explicitly opposes moratoriums. Could not fetch the Hansard URL directly (403), but multiple secondary sources (parallelparliament.co.uk, House of Lords Library) confirm the attribution and content.
