The to seven (on dark blue/black backings) are all good WW2 examples, the ones that have been cut to shape aren’t British ( possibly Canadian or Australian ??

The Brown and blue badges (with small backgrounds) are Australian. The others are a mix of both pre WWII, WWII and later, up to about 1950 when the backgrounds changed to blue/grey.
