Successive UK governments consistently fail to understand the UK's place in the modern world. Insisting on access to encrypted data in all jurisdictions globally is just another example of them thinking small and acting big. Its the digital equivalent of sending a gunboat to put-down the troublesome "natives". Meanwhile its 2025, not 1925.

This was even warranted in 1925, more like 1875.
It would be like demanding a lock up in NYC open a locker in your name and seize all contents.
