From the article:
Universities UK fears universities face an effective £1 billion (US$1.4 billion) cut in research funding because the Treasury has failed to clarify if it will allow funding of the United Kingdom’s association to Horizon Europe, the European Union’s science and innovation programme, to go ahead.
Universities UK has written to the government seeking urgent clarity on the future of funding for UK science and research.
