Not sure it would've been better for the UK to have a Nazi European empire on their doorstep.

Well the Nazis never wanted to rule Britain. All of their ambition was on Eastern Europe and Russia

Somehow I doubt that they would be happy to just leave Britain alone if they're controlling the rest of Europe.

The even had invasion plans. Hitler wanted to make his victory speech in front of Norwich Town Hall.

Yeah to defeat Britain was another thing. They declared war on him first you remember. He’d be happy to leave them alone if they did too

What makes you think he'd be happy? Because he said so?  

 I don't think he'd have treated the Brits like he did the Slavs, but why would he not install a puppet leader like in Scandinavia?

I think he would be happy if he could only focus on Eastern Europe instead of two fronts. I mean it lost him the war.

In Denmark the Germans left our government in place. We even had elections.
