Would an English or British nation seeking to establish colonies in the New World be acceptable?

Like I state before, the rest of the world is pretty much fucked over and the UK is in a similiar spot.
However, you could have someone who is trying to be as British as they possibly can and either think's they're working for the Crown or is just trying to be straight up Britten. Something like that.
Would that be acceptable?
