Default how do I keep UK English as the default for Word spellcheck?

Tools Language Set Language - uncheck automatically detect. Text retains
its own proofing attributes so if you import formatted text from (say) the
internet, you will also import those proofing attributes.

Make sure the Windows regional settings are fixed at UK English.
