Not after 1940. Even Australia stopped respecting the British Army and started making alliances with the US.
The British troopers had its heyday during the 1800s, I mean the British hordes swept across Asia, Africa, and America cutting down anyone in their way, but somehow these days, you should be glad Britain isn't bordering any aggressive nations.

I also like the idea of spreading communist ideas amongst the barracks.

Funny, for me it was the opposite - spreading capitalist ideas amongst the barracks
Still, nationalism is the most powerful ideology for soldiers, since its so easy for them to believe. Let's face it, not every soldier is a communist/capitalist, but everyone belongs to the same nation. I've never seen a successful army built on ideology (even Stalin stopped preaching communism, and started nationalistic preaching, during WW2).
