Maybe we should.
Statistics-wise, let's assume that the repartition of potential combating she people is the same.
Terf Island + their occipied territories' population is 69 millions people.
A conservative estimate of the trans part of the population is about 1%.
World population is 8B, which would make a ratio of 80/69 if favor of trans people.
Considering that a quick search on military doctrine yields the amount of 10 soldiers per 1000 inhabitants, 20 in the case of active insurgency, the numbers are there.
If we expand to LGBTQIA+ people in general, I don't have a lot of stats but polling in the US gives 9%, which I'll round to 10% because I suck at math and it's 2AM. That brings that number to 800/69.
Then, there's the question of armaments. Reliance on the enemies of the UK proved quite effective the last time they faced a civil war so this seems doable.
Understanding how the UK treated the population they colonized as a frame of reference for how they should consider the idea of others colonizing them, it is clear they are clearly not afraid enough.
Did I spend 10min typing this just out of spite for terf Island? Yes. Was it worth it? No.
The biggest issue with taking the UK is that its agricultural production is likely to diminish with the collapse of the AMOC, so we'd be entirely reliant on imports in the long run. It could only work if we colonized it as part of a larger empire, so we'd likely want to start somewhere else.
