I've had significant accent friction when I started watching British television after a long time of learning English from simply watching only American television. But I don't expect people in Britain to "fix" their accent.
Good for you. Now tell everyone in all 195 countries in the world to learn all 195 different accents that exist.
How much effort do you expect people to put into learning all variants of English? Do you even realize how biased your own perspective is?
