I'd argue against your point that many software jobs have been outsources/offshored - at least not any more than other major western economies. The UK has a relatively large software industry - game development, european headquarters of various large technology multinationals, a thriving tech scene in Silicon Roundabout / Cambridge / starting in the north of England, and a fairly large hobbyist arena. If anything, this push will bring the jobs that have been offshored back to the UK as the talent pool grows.
