Nobody stops you from renting a VPS outside the UK and setting up your own VPN server there.
If you get a provider that supports Turnkey Linux, you can literally just directly choose an OS image for it that makes that VPN out-of-the-box an OpenVPN server or a Wireguard server.
This would make you your own VPN provider.
I wish I understood that. I just use proton and hit connect.
