This is hang up of colonialist mentality. Some British subject were niced up if they aligned themselves with the British rulers. This especially included the Indian elites/royals that were Anglofied and educated in britian. Taught to see there own people and savage uneducated natives and thank the empire for all that was good in the world whilst benefitting personally in contrast to the masses.
This mentality exists today as some people try to gentrified themselves in various ways, in a way to appease the apparent white elite for personal benefit, and only happy to do the dirty work that they don't want to such as front the Rwanda scheme.
Malcolm X called this phenomenon the 'House ni**er' ready to through his own under a bus at any moment.
The British empire wouldn't exist without them.
