Once we were British

Reverse colonialism or just a country that realizes, having ruled extensive parts of the world once, that nationalization is an old-world concept. The new global village recognizes only one currency – currency itself.
Most of Britain’s marquee/legacy brands are now owned in part or full, but other nations. Cadbury, a 186-year-old British pride is the latest to go. It follows the likes of Jaguar, Beefeater gin, Rolls Royce, Tetley Tea and the list really goes on and on.
Then there are all the foreign-owned football clubs.
Curry is the national dish. Let’s just take over the damn island.
