Thankfully, no. Many flights were cancelled because of this risk.

Flights are not being grounded globally. There is a volcano erupting in Iceland causing a few flights to be grounded in Northern Europe.
Iceland's Eyjafjallajokull volcano erupted for the second time on April 14, 2010 and caused a thick cloud to settle over Europe and cancel thousands of flights.

Eyjafjallajökull
14th April 2010 - Flights had to be cancelled - There was a huge thick dark cloud of volcanic ash - The volcano had stopped erupting when the snow stopped melting on the glacier
The volcanic ash contains fluoride, which is poisonous. Animals, such as cattle and horses, eat the ash that has settled on the grass and get poisoned. Flights have also been cancelled due to the ash.
the Iceland volcano in April 2010 lasted for about 30-40 seconds and the aftershock's were for weeks as no flights were able to fly out because of the ash clouds spread over many places.

because the volcano doesn't affect the weather :)
There have not been any volcanoes in England for 300 million years, a few evidences of them remain (e.g. Arthur's seat in Edinburgh). I think you mean the volcano in Iceland. Recently, a volcano in Iceland erupted and the ash fumes passed over much of Western Europe. As a result, large number of flights had to be called off for about two months. This certainly affected the aviation industry, as London and Paris are important hubs for international flights.
