To be clear. Britain is not feeling guilt for Germany doing it.
But we knew the genocide was happening. But our gov and intelligence agencies, kept it secret to hide our breaking of the German encryption techniques. So many Brits since learning this post WW2. Recognise the only reason Germany lost the war. And the majority of Europe is not now under Nazi control. It is that the Brits sacrificed/refused to save 6m Jews to save Europe. The UK could have bombed the gas chambers. Putting them out of action. Bombed the correct tracks, shipping families to work camps and those chambers. But instead ignored that intelligence rather than perform actions that would have made it clear to Germany they could understand their communications.
