What is a good way to automatically add these holidays to remind? Also something that works without maintainance year after year would be nice.
Depending on what you mean by maintenance, you could find a public iCal calendar that has the holidays you're interested in, and set up a small script to download it periodically (for calendars, once a week should be more than often enough). A Google search for "ical uk holidays" turned up some likely-looking candidates, though I don't know anything about UK holidays so have no basis to judge.
After the download, run ical2rem to convert the ics file to a reminders file, then INCLUDE it where you want the holidays.
ical2rem seems to have gone missing from the original author's site, but the latest version I know of is here: http://wiki.grahamenglish.net/index.php/Ical2rem.pl
