There has been a long tradition of abstinence in the UK. Oddball religions such as Methodism and Quakerism promoted the ideas of avoiding the use of alcohol and other mind altering substances. Nobody objected to this while these religious types kept their batty ideas to themselves and didn't try to ban the use of drugs altogether, as the British people are notoriously fond of getting wrecked and would have rioted at any suggestion that alcohol and other drugs be banned altogether.

Prohibitionism is a mental illness that began in America, whereby the sufferer is consumed by a fit of arrogance causing them to decide that they have the universal right to ban everyone else from doing fun things that they disapprove of. At first prohibitionism was used as a tool of racism, but eventually it was seen as more fun to arrest and imprison just about anybody. The British government agreed and copied American prohibition making only two exceptions, for the most dangerous, addictive, life-wrecking and profitable drugs; cigarettes and alcohol.
