not true
So what is the most popular roofing in the UK?
While most new build will use concrete tiles, most properties are not
new builds.

Concrete, followed by slate.
New builds perhaps (and then fibre re-enfirced slate look alike probably
trumps real slate there as well) - but existing housing stock all over
the southeast is very heavily dominated by clay.

No, its not. Some places are mainly concrete, some mainly slate. In many towns & cities clay is a minority. Clay is just one of the big players.

Membrane roofing is the perfect roofing solution for flat roofs,

hardly!
What would you prefer?

felt roofs are probably the least perfect of them all. Metal roofing lasts longer.
Membrane roofing also includes fibreglass, and rubber coatings which
last very well.

Indeed. But mostly its felt, and felt does not make anything like the perfect roofing solution.
