I think one has to be careful to differentiate between "Made" and "Finished" or even "Assembled"
Manufacturers pull all sorts of stunts to get the donkey work done in some cheap foreign sweat shop and then import and finish it off at home, so they can say "Made in XXXX"
The Americans used to be very bad for this, with their proud "Made in the USA" and i believe legislation now forces them to say "Assembled in " or "Finished in the USA"
Anything 100% British is likely to be very expensive for what it is by comparison, although Brexit / COVID is probobly likely to level that up
