I know its heresy to say so, but British colonialism brought western civilization, infrastructure and values, to a good chunk of the uncivilized world. Regardless of whether intellectuals like it or not, the results were a very good thing for millions of people.

Perhaps one day Britain will accept a more balanced presentation of their past.

Ok, but apart from western civilization, infrastructure and values, what did British colonialism ever do for us?
