Just wondering:

1) Is the UK govt doing this?

The notice is from a UK Government agency.

2) Is the USA doing anything similar?

I would be surprised if they were not, but they may have more remote areas to carry out such tests.
3) What's the purpose?

I understand that it's for the military to see how they would work without GPS or on the event of GPS jamming.

4) Have you guys using GPS over there been affected?

Sincerely,

Ron

Yes, see:

Wow. Those sound like some substantial negative effects. I guess it's a good idea to have backups for our GPS's, if possible.
