A big no from me.
Also you are not allowed to tint the side windows, are you?

Current regs are:

The front windscreen must let at least 75% of light through and the front side windows must let at least 70% of light through.

On that basis hardly worth it, personally for me I think window tints just cheapen a car, all a bit Summerhouse Estate gangsta for me ...

So basically the same regs. as on the continent.
The manufacturers windows as is already block almost 30% of the light. So you don't really have any wiggle room for a tint!
