Heckler & Koch XM8 (modified G-36)

H&K XM8 rifles, likely visual modifications of G-36Ks, appear throughout the movie in the hands of British police officers guarding detained refugees and the Bexhill refugee camp.

M4A1 Carbine

An M4A1 Carbine, fitted with an Elcan optical sight, is first seen in the hands of a 'Fish' gunman when Theo Faron (Clive Owen) is kidnapped by the resistance group. Later, during the action sequence at the Bexhill refugee camp, a female 'Fish' is also seen with an M4. While it would be more likely in reality for the gun to be a Diemaco C8A1 Carbine, Colt Canada does not sell to civilian companies (including film armorers) so it would be impossible to use one in the film.

IMI Jericho 941

A Two-Tone IMI Jericho 941 is used by Luke (Chiwetel Ejiofor) throughout the movie, first to threaten Patric (Charlie Hunnam) when he inadvertently reveals their secret plans and later to kill Jasper (Michael Caine).

AK-47

Two types of Kalashnikov rifle appear in the film. Modernized versions with plastic furniture are used by Tomasz (Jacek Koman) and Sirdjan (Faruk Pruti), while older versions with wooden stocks are seen in the hands of refugees throughout the film.

M4A1 Carbine

A M4A1 carbine fitted with a M203 grenade launcher, tactical light and a AN/PEQ-2 laser sight is used by the Fish leader Luke (Chiwetel Ejiofor) when his forces arrive at the Bexhill refugee camp. He is later shown firing the M203 at the British army, and wounds Theo (Clive Owen) as he and Kee escape.

Heckler & Koch G36

At the Bexhill refugee camp, one of the resistance fighters carries a G36C, which he fires at approaching British troops. Shortly after, a British Army squad leader who orders his men to cease fire is also armed with a G36C. Prop G36Ks can also be seen in the hands of refugees during a funeral march.

SA-80

British Army soldiers throughout the film are seen carrying SA-80 rifles, most prominently shown when the military invades the Bexhill refugee camp.

PKM

As Theo and Kee leave the scene of a battle between the Fishes and the British Army, a single soldier can be seen wielding a Russian PKM Machine gun. For some strange reason, it has the belt-magazine removed.

PKM in British use?, shouldnt the armourers know that would go against NATO standards having a ComBloc weapon?

Based on the image shown, it seems to me that the weapon may be a FN MAG, which the British army currently uses and classifies as the L7. I do not own the movie however so I cannot make a definitive statement.
