No, the UK is not against autism and I'm not sure how countries could be against a disorder.

The UK is one of the most tolerant places for Autism, for example we have one of the only Autism-specific laws (Autism Act) which requires people in government and healthcare to learn about Autism and a pathway to diagnosis. Although Autistic people in the UK still face prejudice in schools and employment, also under Tory government Autistic people are less likely to work, get support into work, or receive appropriate benefits - this is the fault of the Tory government, not the UK.

What to the government do based on the autism epidemic?

There's no such thing as the 'autism epidemic'.Autism is a variation in neurology, it is not a disease so cannot be an 'epidemic'. This terminology is commonly used by those who are against Autistic people or use Autism to further their agenda (such as using it to make money - e.g. Autism Speaks) to create a culture of fear, often using misleading data claiming Autism is on the increase when it's not (diagnosis has increased, Autism hasn't).
