I am not being fly here, but do you consider that Christianity is forced upon you......and if so what way??
I personally, would not consider that the wishing someone a Merry Christmas was forcing Christian beliefs at anyone...any more than the banners which proclaim Eid Greetings or Diwali greetings force those religions on anyone.
Now, if you lived in a muslim country and tried to practise a Chrisitan faith and were not allowed to do so....and were hounded to become muslim then that is an entirely different matter.
Muslims who convert to christianity(or any other faith) for that matter are guilty of Apostasy and can be killed for their beliefs.

In the main, I think that the UK is very tolerant of other religions.
