If you mean basic adult literacy (ability to read and write, age 15+), Great Britain/the United Kingdom has very high literacy — about 99% by standard international measures (UNESCO/World Bank figures).
If you mean functional literacy or proficiency (how well adults actually use written information), results are lower: OECD’s PIAAC survey for the UK found a substantial minority of adults with low literacy skills.
Do you want a specific source, a breakdown for England/Scotland/Wales, or the most recent functional-literacy (PIAAC) figures?
