They really didn't do anything for Rhodesia after the UDI. They broke up the union to which Rhodesia was a party to, and in a way forced Rhodesia's hand towards the UDI, then they embargoed the country, then the Conservative government of Margaret Thatcher reneged on their promise to support Muzorewa if he was elected in a free election (which he was), instead insisting on the treaty which eventually put Mugabe into power, thus resulting in the sad state of affairs which is now known as Zimbabwe.
