I don't think you got this right. Hitler actually wanted to make peace with england, after france was defeated. Thankfully enlgand was smart enough to not make Peace.

You'd have to go further back to the point before Hitler broke so many treaties that his word became worthless. At which point... he's probably too constrained by treaties to do what he did. I wouldn't discount things going different if he'd done everything slower though.

Well, it would be harsh to leave Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland fighting alone. Though they would have the commonwealth to help.

If I’m not mistaken, Hitler wanted Britain to make concessions in said peace, not just cease fire and maintain the status quo. Though I could be wrong
