Since you're asking, yes they are. Johnson is a right wing populist, and Liz Truss recently spoke at a far right conference, complaining about the deep state thwarting her plan. They're Trump without the funny accent.
This happens in the US too [1,2,3]. In fact, regarding freedom of the press, they rank 55th in the world, well behind the UK, which ranks 23rd [4]. And if you think Trump is anything but the standard neoliberal order accelerated, I've got a bridge to sell you. For example look at the Laken Riley act. A blatant and complete teardown of judicial order (punishment for being _suspected_ of crimes), and 58 democrats helped pass it. Trump is par for the course, he's just a bit rude about it.
