That's a pretty short-sighted read on the UK. We have serious issues with the Tories trying to undermine encryption, but the fact that there are a lot of 30-year-old non-networked CCTV cameras attached to businesses and residences is not really an issue.
The government isn't forking out to put cameras everywhere though. There are a few in city centres which I'd imagine local councils have to pay for, most are installed by private businesses just to protect their own property.

Thanks, I forgot this: "We want the master keys to Signal, and we put cameras everywhere because you have nothing to hide."
