UK is 28 days paid leave (includes public holidays).
...although, under the current government many employers have moved workers to be contractors on "zero hours contracts", so you're uber driver, food delivery guy, amazon packing guy etc have basically none of these rights.
On the other hand, if you are software dev you are either employed and have the 28 days - or you are a contractor, less rights but paid more than the permies.
Some IT contractors line up something before their current one ends, or there will be a gap while you find something.
