Genuinely surprising - though with the cuts that have just been announced by the chancellor, government spending on IT infrastructure (which makes up a meaningful part of these numbers I imagine) will fall and our numbers will take a dent. Even so it is an encouragement to people selling to and into the UK.

What they’ve done to get to their GDP number is take the value added of everything that is connected with the internet: rather than the value added by the use of the internet.
