If you look at the graphs for GBPUSD and EURUSD on year timeframes they are very similar. I am not an economist but to me it seems like the various Europe crises around energy, war, covid etc have the main effect and the media is just focusing on UK specific politics and monetary policy because it changed recently and gets clicks.

The real story here isn't just currency though, it's government debt, and UK 10 year gilt yields have double in the last 2 months and are now being stabilized by the Bank of England.
