Britain has the 8th-most expensive electricity in the world[1], seems prudent that a Brit would try to be more self-sufficient in terms of generation?

Ok.

On your map, let's say the source is valid, UK has $0.4. I'm from CZ, we have $0.35.

UK has more than double median salary, DOUBLE. Which means that in some cities it will be actually more like 2x or 3x smaller. But price of electricity is more or less same in the whole country here.

Don't tell me something about expensive electricity and saving money. Because on top of that, let's check affordable housing stats

Yep, one of the worst in EU, yaay.
