I just had this issue with my new laptop.
I managed to fix it using this video:

Basically, open powershell, enter the command:
$1 = New-WinUserLanguageList en-US

This basically creates a new list of languages for your user containing just en-US, then it sets it to the current user. After running this command, the united kingdom language was gone and I just needed to manually enter my own languages.
