A non UK registered sub-ICAO aircraft can only operate in UK airspace for 1 month per year as part of the ECAC (European Civil Aviation Conference) agreement on homebuilts. Beyond that it would need specific UK CAA permission which, given their own ban (which I understand was based upon an understanding that about 50% of all BD5s built have had a fatal accident), seems unlikely.
