No. They’re a mess. Brexit was a mess. Their politics are a mess. The royal family is a mess. Their culture is a mess. Their economy is a mess. Their climate is a mess. They’re not ok, but there’s not really anything we can do for them, so… I guess they’re on their own, like the rest of us. They’ll have to figure their shit out, pronto, or fall into chaos, which seems more likely what everyone is going to end up doing around the world. I wish them luck. They’ll need it. We’ll all need it.
Honestly the UK is fine. I don’t have any great love for it, it isn’t glamorous And I was happier the 10 years I lived in central Asia but even on a bad day the UK is safer, more stable and easier to live in than the vast majority of countries and it has been that way for more than a thousand years. None of the things you mention have any significant impact on day to day living. British people are allergic to drama and will muddle through whatever happens.
That is not really the kind of culture I was referring to, would “social climate” perhaps make it clearer? But even if that were what I meant, is any of that even from this century?

What do you mean their culture is a mess? Frankenstein? Tolkien? The Beatles? Heavy blues? Heavy metal? Hard rock? Punk?
