The UK does have a Creation Science Movement[0]. My partner and I unwittingly stumbled into their Genesis Expo[1] in Portsmouth the other year – we blindly walked in without noticing the building's name or any paraphernalia, just "ooh, look, fossils". Only when inside did we realise it was full AND THIS IS WHY EVOLUTION IS WRONG stuff.

The UK has a decently high number of Jehovas Witnesses who (based on the stuff on leaflets they've put through my door) definitely don't seem to follow mainstream science on evolution.

Aye I don't deny such people exist in the UK, but if they tried to get schools to change their curriculum, they would not be given the time of day like folk in the USA.
