One of the saddest things is that UKTI (the old DTI) and the mayor's office recognised after the 2008 crash that the UK economy is over dependent on financial services, and has been doing a fantastic job promoting the UK, and London in particular, as a tech hub. If you walk into any of the successful new businesses around Old Street, or around Cambridge, they have recruited some of the best from all over the World. That investment has dried up more or less overnight, and many of the people helping to build those businesses are now feeling very uncomfortable as to how welcome they are in the UK. |
