Sadly the UK has a long history of sending its own tech industry abroad...

It begun with the invention of the computer as we know it... - Charles Babbage,"Father of the computer", British - Alan Turing, "Father of modern computer science", British

Then there was Margret Thatcher who decided the internet was a fad and wasn't worth investing in internet infrastructure in the country.

Where did the multi billion (if not trillion by now) industry end up? Silicon Valley and elsewhere....

Bravo UK... Bravo </sarcasm>
