Does WP do this anywhere else?
I wonder what happens if they simply don't comply. Will the UK at any point ask ISPs to ban Wikipedia?

I think just getting blocked is no big deal, but they'll probably get fined as well, that is the problem
What mechanism does the UK government have to extract fines from Wikipedia?
“Pay this or we will concoct some criminal charges on your entire leadership team, append each of you to interpol lists and formally request your extradition” is probably a good start.
