Compared to the US, the UK's legal minimum of 28 days[1] vacation is a bucket load!
And most full time UK workers are 40 or 37.5 hours, which is still well below what many US workers report their hours as.

(This includes bank holidays, typically companies will mandate the bank holidays and give 20 days to be chosen freely.)
