Yes they should, and a lot of the gov.uk stuff is open source and seems to me to be a very positive development.
BUT they've really dropped the ball by feeding analytics data about UK citizens to a bunch of US firms. IMHO. And not because I think the US is the worst place in the world ever, but simply because it demonstrably does not respect private data in the same way the EU does, especially when it comes to people who are non-citizens.
