The UK is not part of Schengen. There is no obligatory free movement between mainland Europe and the UK due to the EU. They're also fully entitled to refuse taking refugees. And have the same rights to check anyone coming in if they are or aren't in the Union.

 

There also haven't been "millions" coming into the UK. Muslims, yes, but perfectly legal muslims that your country accepted as legal immigrants. Again, your choice. Germany isn't forcing you to take anyone. That's a decision they made by themselves. Unsurprisingly, the vast majority of the migrants consequently landed in Germany.

(these are all asylum applicants, including both the accepted and rejected.

 

Also, the refugee crisis is pretty much over, by now.

Actually Germany is trying to FORCE redistribution of migrants across the eu. 

Not Germany, but the countries where the immigrants arrive first, like Spain, Italy and especially Greece.

Greece only has a fraction of Britain's size or population, but had more immigrants because they're the first country of the EU for most of the migrants. Add to this their economic crisis, and you'll understand that Greece couldn't handle even more immigrants. Spain and Italy got similar problems, but from migrants out of Africa coming by ships (if they make it, thousands have died over the last years by drowning with those old, overcrowded and overfilled ships sailing to Davy Jones'Locker)
