Stalk,

The BDs in the UK have more of a foxhole mentality than their US counterparts. I think they're in a panic about the shift to spreadbets and CFDs. But thats not likely to open them up to shorting in any way that will benefit traders. The transaction costs, even with places like Deal4Free are very high compared to the US markets. Think its hard for Americans to understand how unique the liquidity of their markets really are. The majority of my students overseas have given up on their local markets and trade American stocks or futures.
