Those rates are not geared at (foreign) tourists.
You will either have to buy insurance from the rental agency at inflated daily rates which will drive up cost significantly or purchase a policy in the UK from specialized vendors like

I use QEEQ all the time since I'm based overseas, but have a US license. I can confirm that this is not true when it comes to US rentals. It may be verbiage on the QEEQ side to dissuade users from choosing that option, but all (US) rental car companies are required to provide the state minimum of liability coverage on their vehicles, regardless if you have your own or if you purchase their
additional liability option.
