UK is the US's closest ally,it will likely be something about taiwan,HK or elswhere outside mainland. And it will probably slowly escalate if I had to guess to where in one shape or form China attacks SK ,US military bases,hawaii or western US as a retaliation ,after which the UK will be presurred to join ,except the public would be divided and that's when comms will have issues: is it US or China hacking brits?
China does not care for the west as a trading partner much more than as a stepping stone to reach elsewhere. The west uses economic advantages to arm twist domestic Chinese policy. If they have their grip on Africa, Asia and S. America who cares about the fading west?
And the USA right now is vital for continued world peace and stability as a superpower. There many many nations that owe their geopolitical stability right now to the US being the sole super power.
China has sheer volume but being maybe a third at most their population size the US dominates many things still. Technologically they're still behind in military appllications. The US woud squash China in a heartbeat in both conventional and Nuke warfare. And you have to undetstand how much SK and Japan (both important UK allies btw) are important to the US. Their loss too China will happen only after losing WW3. These are one ot many reasons why both China and Russia are working hard to dismantle the US and UK from the inside out as well as sow discord between them. UK fought with US in both Iraq and Afghanistan!!! Many brits died in America's wars already.
