I didn't think the English mot would have allowed for removal of the lid for inspection. In saying that on my past few cars, I didn't notice them checking it, they have on older models though.

It is a critical safety item though. In an impact, travelling from 70 to zero, the battery will still have some of that momentum if not secured. Additionally, if it rolls over, falls out and shorts on a bare metal part of the bonnet, leaking fuel, sparks ...... Etc
