I don't think things will improve until we get some politicians that have actual hard experience of working with technology. I see politicians trying to seem informed but merely demonstrating their ignorance all the time. How are they supposed to make decisions about this type of thing when they are so obviously clueless? And how bad a job must the civil service be doing in advising them? I suppose we shouldn't be surprised at the latter when it's stuffed full of Oxbridge humanities grads..
