I enjoy the entirely pointless speculation of alternative history.
One of my favourites is: What if England had won the US war of Independence? They actually came close. What if they had arrested the major signaturies to the Declaration of Independence?
A few issues spring to mind: American expansionism;The Spanish American War,Texas, California, the Louisiana purchase, Alaska, Hawaii.
As part of The British Commonwealth, the US would have entered WW1 in 1914 and WW2 in 1939.
My perception is the loss America as an unmitigated disaster for Britain at the very least.
