It is best to be up to date with the latest news from Britain and the USA. You will not be expected to be an expert in current affairs, but, if I were you, I would read the headlines for a few weeks, and re-read a good textbook on British Civilization ((in particular, how institutions work, how parties and unions work etc). This is the best one (I wrote a small part of it).
For the UK, Brexit is obviously a big deal. I gave this lecture in French, "Comprendre le Brexit", last year.
