My ISP doesn't block commercial VPN usage but assuming the block is of known IP addresses of commercial VPNs, what I would do is:
So this would route your traffic home -> personal VPS -> commercial VPN
forgoing the block, whilst still meaning that websites see your IP address as being from the commercial VPN, avoiding de-anonymising you since your VPS IP address will only be used by you
The reason for the OpenWRT router is because generally you can't have multiple wireguard connections on the same device. I've found that wireguard on the router then wireguard on device connected to the router allows me to route my traffic in that way, easily.
Now if your government tries detecting and blocking wireguard connections you're probably more cooked, however in that case I imagine the kickback from businesses that need to use wireguard would be enough for your government to reconsider? The UK probably doesn't want a reputation for being a bad place to set up a business.
