rgdal issue - other solutions for UK maps

Hi,
I have this code which has been working:

NPS.by.Region <- data.frame(
  stringsAsFactors = FALSE,
            Region = c("East Midlands",
                       "East of England","London","North East","North West",
                       "Northern Ireland","Scotland","South East","South West","Wales",
                       "West Midlands","Yorkshire and The Humber"),
          AVER.NPS = c(80.3990610328639,
                       65.3417015341702,65.8536585365854,86.61800486618,72.6201269265639,
                       80,80.9663250366032,71.0091743119266,76.8518518518518,
                       79.4721407624633,75.2092050209205,76.1425959780622),
             Count = c(852,1434,451,411,1103,135,
                       683,2180,972,341,956,1094)
)

NPS.by.Region

library(rgdal)
eng1 <- rgdal::readOGR(paste0("https://opendata.arcgis.com/datasets/",
                              "8d3a9e6e7bd445e2bdcc26cdf007eac7_4.geojson"))

countries1 <- rgdal::readOGR(paste0("https://opendata.arcgis.com/datasets/",
                                    "92ebeaf3caa8458ea467ec164baeefa4_0.geojson"))

eng <- sf::st_as_sf(eng1)
countries <- sf::st_as_sf(countries1)
UK <- countries[-1,] 
names(eng)[3] <- "Region"
names(UK)[3] <- "Region"
UK$objectid <- 10:12
eng <- eng[-2]
UK <- UK[c(1, 3, 9:11)]
UK <- rbind(eng, UK)



library(dplyr)
ukj <- left_join(UK,NPS.by.Region)

ggplot2::ggplot(ukj, ggplot2::aes(fill = AVER.NPS)) + 
  ggplot2::geom_sf() +
  ggplot2::scale_fill_gradient(low="#CC0000", high = "#006600")

Now, there are some issues with rgdal or something else as I cannot run it anymore.

Can anyone help?

It seems like it cannot find the data sources any longer - the download links from ArcGIS Hub seem to be broken.

Maybe try and download the data and reference the downloaded data from your code to introduce more reproducibility ?

This is the problem as I used this part of the code:

library(rgdal)
eng1 <- rgdal::readOGR(paste0("https://opendata.arcgis.com/datasets/",
                              "8d3a9e6e7bd445e2bdcc26cdf007eac7_4.geojson"))

countries1 <- rgdal::readOGR(paste0("https://opendata.arcgis.com/datasets/",
                                    "92ebeaf3caa8458ea467ec164baeefa4_0.geojson"))

from one of the codes available in the R community.
I was using that for a while. It stopped working and I cannot fix it.
Perhaps there is another way of creating UK region maps without this code?
