Japan wanted all the colonies, including India

If England would become neutral they would lose their positions as most important country in the world (imo they lost it already, but back then they thought differently), would you as an imperialist allow that to happen.
Next to that, they knew the Germans would have a hard time trying to invade England.
The entire British nation wanted to fight Germany, be it with their bare hands, they didn't want peace, and would certainly not like Winnie to make peace.

England wanted as much world influence as possible, peace with Germany would result in no influence in Europe at all, as it would be German.
Next to that the goverments of Poland, Belgium, Holland, France, Norway, Denmark, etc who escaped into Britain would insist to fight on.


It's easy to say that England could make peace, but it's hard to make that peace
