If you're willing to insure them for 18M GBP of liability perhaps they'll reconsider.

Reallllyyy? Over a bit of porn blocking? Do we not think maybe this is just for show? What do they imagine is going to happen at the border -- their iPhone gets frisked for Page Three nudes?
More to the point, are they banning Texas? Indiana? Oklahoma? Georgia? North Dakota? France?
Or are they just hyperventilating about the latest thing from Britain? Perhaps they think unless Tommy Robinson saves us no-one can.
Essentially, you have to preform risk assessment if your site contains any child inappropriate content (according to new law that is defined kind of vague ), you have to age verify all the visitors from UK or risk getting fines.
Since service allows for user upload, this means that their site could protentional qualify. And even if it does not, you need a lawyer to go through everything, to make sure you don't. Sure the chances their site get targeted is small, but not zero.
You've apparently not crossed international borders that often.

They've simply decided doing business with the UK is no longer worth the risk. This is no more "hyperventilating" than the people who passed this law in the first place, who are "hyperventilating" over pornography sites when there's no evidence they're a significant social problem.
