I don't consider them as worse than Nazi Germany, but I consider them as pretty bad.

The massacres and famines in India comes to mind.

The wars in China to keep selling them opium.

And the fact that Nazi Germany had to hide the genocide from the general population, but when a Britiah military officer massacred civilians, they were bailed and cheered on by the general population is a nuance to the idea that the British Empire was better in every regard.
