Like most places there are strengths and weaknesses.. The UK does have more cameras than any square mile elsewhere in the world. These are not "govt cameras" necessarily - just common sense stuff (banks/stores blah). However, any city, especially around sensitive locations and where bombings previously occurred, will usually have some video security and traffic control cameras are normal.

UK Intell may be good, but they also have screwups. The most public and notorious being the IRA Guildford bombings where the pressure was on law enforcement to find bodies to charge and they "arranged" the selected candidates who were stuffed in jail cells for years until the lying police officers and Crown Prosecution Service collusion was exposed. Tho this was a problem with deviant investigators and a total asshole forensic "expert" - a people thing! Generally they are good and don't make a fuss and get the job done.

Rest assured, the only reason the US does not have cameras is it could not afford em to cover the country and would be kinda pointless in rural areas - otherwise they would be there. But it won't be long till they are in full operation in cities.
