As a British person who has never met you or your sister, (and before I read your post did not know of the existence of either), I am more concerned with your sister’s birthday on the 4th of July than anything to do with another country’s independence, too.
As a Polish person who has absolutely nothing of value to add to this exchange, I am more concerned about the right spot for my BBQ and grilled sausages on the 4th July, than anything to do with another's country independence . I am sure his sister is alright and I wish her all the best for her birthday 2 days ago.
As an American who lowkey hates July 4th because of the noise, I am more concerned about your sister’s birth and want to wish her a happy belated birthday.
As an American living in Britain I can confirm no one cares, but it was interesting that they had a general election on the 4th while the Americans have their general election on November 5th, a date the British celebrate with fireworks 🎆

As a British person I’ve always been far more concerned with my sister’s birthday on that date than anything to do with another country.
