Lord Leong (Lab)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 2 April 2025

Debate

Mathematical Sciences

Contribution

I thank my noble friend for that. First, it is a myth that all Chinese do maths, because my daughter is not interested in it. Secondly, we have an open university system, so if people want to come to study in this country, whether it is maths or any other science, we should welcome them. We also always need to put in place certain structures to ensure that they are not leaving this country with any sensitive information and technology.
