Again. When the British were going to a lot of countries. They didn’t “steal” a lot of stuff. It was traded. They were gifts. Or they found them and took them back. No one was kicking up a fuss, half the counties were full of locals who would be classified as primitive and had no concept of cultural heritage.
Pretty much all countries are now governed in some form of another and have some laws protecting these things and/or preventing them from being removed from the country.
Yes we can debate if the British should return a lot of this stuff. But that’s a completely different topic.
But you cannot fly a single banner and call it 100% looting/stealing when that is not true.
