I tried to find some seed earlier in the year without success and a
thorough Google only finds US/Canadian suppliers

Does anyone know of a UK supplier?

Thanks!

It was submited for trialBy Elsoms in 1997, they no longer list it,
only

Kolibri F1 A mid-early variety, purple skinned with flattish round
shape, excellent white flesh quality

and

Korist F1 A very early white skinned variety suitable for forcing.
Flattish globe shape with mild, crisp flesh holds well without getting
woody.

You could try contacting them to see if they know of a UK supplier.
