The question is pretty "nuts". Take a look at what is actually being erected and why.
Beltane has no connection of any sort (apart from recently invented ones) with Baal.

Baal was not any single one God, Baal is a title meaning lord it is mistakenly seen to most christians as a single god. At one point in history even the biblical God was known a Baal Yahweh. Married women often referred to their husbands a Baal. The rebuilding of an ancient temple is a historical venture. England is more a secular country now days. It's church attendance is declining immensely.
