Drivers in Britain should give way to pedestrians at all junctions, including entrances and exits to all roundabouts. It's literally in the highway code.
Admittedly it's only a "should" rather than a "must" for most roundabouts, but still. This is the what driving standards are these days, and it is a good thing. It's all about protecting the more vulnerable. Car drivers are more dangerous to others than pedestrians are, so car drivers have to take more care and should give priority to the more vulnerable pedestrians.
EDIT: But once again I've fallen victim to a classic blunder. The sort of people who would say a roundabout is woke would never care about a well-reasoned argument. And I'm just preaching to the choir in this community anyway!
