His link says that the UK made copies, and that private contractors hired by the UK government such as IBM were given access. IBM, and most other firms that the UK government likely uses as contractors, have offices and data centers in the UK.

I didn't notice anywhere in his link that said that anyone moved copies of the data to the US.
