Absolutely not. But Belgium, Sweden, Denmark, Czechia, all have comparable or worse inflation. Brexit was and continues to be a shit show, but the UK isn't uniquely in trouble here.

Question isn’t how Brexit UK compares to other countries, question is how it compared to hypothetical UK without Brexit. The government is spending a lot of money keeping inflation down through the energy price cap.
