"What happened is that a lot of the British press absolutely loathes the current government over Brexit and wants them booted out"
That makes it seem like the UK press is largely left leaning, when most of it is very much right leaning and usually pro-government in sentiment.
The Mail has far more readers than the Guardian, for instance. The Sun more than the Mirror. The BBC, while historically left of centre, is nowadays pro-government after threats of funding cuts brought them to heel.
There are a lot of reasons beyond Brexit to think the government is doing a poor job, though Brexit itself is obviously a huge point of contention.
