It could be S. arvensis. This is a late flowerer. I always think that summer is almost over when I see it in flower. Many plants in flower now in our area.

The leaves look like a Sonchus. Is it a UK native?

Yes!

Sonchus asper with rain in the opening flowers?

Sure does look like a salix, Matt.  Is it a fungal disease causing a sort of a pseudo-flower?  I see what I think is a similar thing happen to various Brassicaeae (Draba spp. and Smelowskia calycina) in the wild when they are affected by rust.
