More UK technology visas granted after fears of worker shortage

250 visas will "secure access to overseas talent"? Is the tech market in UK so tiny? In contrast US of A issued 85k H1B according to http://money.cnn.com/2016/04/12/technology/h1b-cap-visa-fy-2...

EDIT: I forgot that UK is still part of EU, so there's a massive amount of people from outside the UK that won't need any visa to work there.
