Britain helped Texas because Britain supported it. Britain saw it as an economic opportunity that would provide more land for growing cotton. This would be beneficial to Britain, as it would take away some of the Independence from America's cotton. At the time, a large percentage of Britain's economy was based on cotton. Another benefit for Britain is that it stopped the southward expansion of the United States.
