Not to open a can of worms, but there are probably people who still consider Northern Ireland a colony.

They can consider what they like, but it is factually wrong. People in NI get to vote in UK elections.

A reasonable case can be made that it should be Irish territory, not British, but that is a territorial dispute.

The people in Tahiti get to vote for representatives in Paris. But French Polynesia is still a colony.
