The British government saw the USA as a growing economical rival, and it would suit them if the country was split into two.
Because the slavery there provided them huge profits
Lincoln issued the proclamation mainly because he wanted to prevent England and France from allying with the Confederacy. While both England and France somewhat disliked the Union and Lincoln, both had abolished slavery already, and had strong anti-slavery sentiments within their societies. So while the South was generally militarily successful in the early war, England and France, despite being sympathetic to the South, did little to actually support it. Once the Union won a major battle (Antietam- although some consider it a draw), Lincoln issued the proclamation, so that it would not appear to be an act of desperation. The proclamation linked support for the South with support for slavery, and Lincoln correctly knew that Britain and France would not support it. Lincoln's gambit worked. The Europeans refused to support the pro-slavery South, and the proclamation even improved Lincoln's image in Europe- one prominent Italian leader proclaimed Lincoln as "the Great Emancipator", and that he would be long remembered for it. The South was forced to continue fighting the Civil War alone, and eventually lost.
The South was a manufacturing center for both countries.Their need for cotton would make them allies with the South. THIS ONEThe tariffs on Southern goods were lower than the North's. -NOT THIS ONE-
They were losing and needed help from a strong nation. They were losing and needed help from a strong nation.
It would prevent them from exporting their plentiful cotton in exchange for war supplies.
The South thought that if they could stop trade to England that England would assist the South in fighting the North. This however back fired because England did not want to get involved in the war.
They would not have enough state votes to pass the constitution if slavery was outlawed by it. The south would have voted against it.
The Emancipation Proclamation did absolutely nothing. It announced that if the South did not put down its weapons and end the war, that in 90 days, the slaves behind Confederate lines would be free. The Emancipation Proclamation announced to England that the Civil War was about doing away with slavery. It made it impossible for England to continue to provide material support for the South. The three warships England gave the South would be the last additions to the Confederate Navy. It ended the possibility of additional military support for the South. The promises that England and France made to the South of military intervention if the South would pullout of the Union, suddenly became impossible to keep. The South was suddenly on its own.It meant that when Union armies captured southern territory, the slaves would be added to the Union Armies. The South would lose workers and the Union would gain solders.

South midlands would be more accurate
because they were afraid that England would make unfair laws
I think England would be a monarchy

Because after Lincoln turned it into a war on slavery (by issuing the Emancipation Proclamation), it would have made them look pro-slavery themselves.
it would take about 2 hours
