Comment by Andrea Miotti

It also helps in cases where the government has reason to believe super-intelligent AI [...] is being developed on UK soil. [...] The UK is not truly sovereign on AI if it can’t pull the plug when AI national security threats happen on its soil.

AI Verified Computer Weekly’s page at the supplied URL, published on 2026-05-18, contains both sentences and attributes them to Andrea Miotti (“he said” / “added Miotti”); the omitted middle words are present on the page, so the stored text is a faithful ellipsis-based excerpt, and the stored author, date, and source URL match the source.

Disputed Computer Weekly’s 18 May 2026 article attributes these remarks to Andrea Miotti and quotes the relevant lines as “It also helps in cases where the government has reason to believe super-intelligent AI...” and “The UK is not truly sovereign on AI if it can’t pull the plug...”. A Digg mirror of Miotti’s X post shows the fuller original thread, which includes an intervening sentence and begins differently (“This kill-switch provision helps govt intervene...”). So the quote is authentic in substance and attribution, but the submitted wording is not verbatim because it replaces “It also” with “[The kill switch]”.

AI Verified Quote substance confirmed via web search; the second sentence "The UK is not truly sovereign on AI if it can't pull the plug when AI national security threats happen on its soil" appears verbatim in coverage of Andrea Miotti's statement supporting the UK kill-switch amendment. Author is correctly identified as ControlAI founder/CEO. The "for" vote on "Require large datacenters to install kill switches for AI containment" aligns perfectly — Miotti is publicly backing exactly this amendment.
