They're a British pop band who launched their career during that movement so why not?
Other bands had a folk influence too and were included in that genre.

One was and she lived in London before the band was formed. Mary Hansen was Australian, Sean O Hagen is Irish, they were based in Britian, they had most of their success in Britain. I don't really see anything that would make them otherwise. That's like saying The Clash are a Turkish band because Strummer was born there.
