It's not just the UK sites where you get that. Speedo and some of their dealers embed (hide) the word "Barracuda" in some of their web pages so that searching for "Barracuda" will show Speedo pages in the results. They're hoping that when you go looking for Barracudas, you'll find Speedo instead and end up buying Speedos. You follow the links, then you sit there wondering why the idiot search engine gave you pages that don't have anything to do with the product you want.
I had forgotten it until you mentioned that, but when I went looking for a good place to buy my Barracudas I encountered the same thing. It made me angry at Speedo. I'm getting angry now. I think I have an old pair of Speedos around here I can smash. (Just kidding.)
Try searching for Barracudas with "not Speedo" or "-Speedo" included in your search terms to keep Speedo pages out altogether. That may filter out some legitimate results, but it's worth a shot.

You may have already tried this, but have you contacted the folks at Barracuda directly to see if the have a UK distributor?
If they don’t already have one, then you could pick up the franchise and have a lifetime supply of goggles!
i already contacted barracuda they said i could get posted to me for 15$ but non traceable.ie .my own risk,
the goggles would probably end up on some big nosed frenchman!!!!
the franchise idea might work but i only wanted one pair i wasn't looking for more work,i work enough already......
