Although the Faragists are pushing back against the perceived woke-ism of criticising British imperialism and colonialism in general, even back in the 80s and 90s when I went to school there was an overall negative slant in teaching and textbooks.
It definitely needs to be stronger and louder for sure but it's simply not accurate to say anymore (though the tories and Reform certainly want to whitewash things and show only the "good" bits).
