Local MP Alan Mak has accused the Labour Government of undermining the UK's economic competitiveness.
He said in Parliament that the Government had failed to resolve uncertainty around AI data mining and copyright.
Mr Mak told Liz Kendall, Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology: "Will the Secretary of State accept that that failure is driving jobs in both AI and the creative industries abroad?"
He said the Conservatives had left the Labour Government with a Data Bill that would have improved Britain's position as a leading tech-enabled economy and society, but it had delivered only confusion and failure.
