Your correct, kinda.

Most of the UK police can only carry around an asp and pepperspray as a weapon.

But, since the bombings in London. There has been a rise in Armed Response Units walking/driving around London with Mp5 and pistols. If there still there I do not know, but I know that they have been a rise of them down in the south near Portsmouth, where I live.
