The UK attracts immigrants from its former colonies due to historical ties, shared language, and established communities that provide support and familiarity. Many former colonies have cultural and familial connections to the UK, making it a desirable destination for those seeking better economic opportunities or escaping conflict. Additionally, the UK's education and healthcare systems are often seen as advantageous, further enhancing its appeal.

The era of European colonization ended after WWII. Jamaica, for example, is no longer a colony, but an independent state that is part of a loose association of former colonies and the UK, known as the Commonwealth. If you are asking: why DID Europe colonize the Americas? It was to plunder their natural resources.
The first wave of immigrants came to the UK in 1948 on a boat from Jamaica called the 'Empire Windrush'. By 1960, many more had followed them and there were substantial areas of the big cities with a large immigrant population and this led to tensions between the indigenous population and the newcomers which culminated with the Notting Hill Riots in the mid 1960's.
Russia never had colonies. We have no colonies at current time (But Great Britain have now - The king of GB is the head of UK, Canada, Australia and some other colonies)
It wasn't so much a matter of importance. France and the UK were perennial enemies for centuries. It suited France to punish the UK by depriving it of the 13 colonies.

The United Kingdom may want to maintain ties with former colonies for several reasons, including economic benefits through trade partnerships and investment opportunities. Additionally, cultural and historical connections can foster diplomatic relationships and promote shared values, enhancing the UK's global influence. Strengthening ties with former colonies can also facilitate cooperation on issues such as security, climate change, and migration, creating a network of support in international affairs.
