you dont apply for nuttin. Just show up in the US with your passport. Be ready to prove that you have return tickets, and proof of your intentions of retuning to the UK.

you have your British passport machine readable and all.....buy a ticket and go and return within 90 days. I take it you have no pending immigration applications?

you do not need to apply for a visa....unless you have a criminal record...the link meauxna posted tells you all you need to know really.

The visa waiver program is a reciprocal program between most western european countries and the US.

It means you can enter the US without a visa for a stay of up to 90 days. You're prohibited from working or receiving any government benefits during your stay. As a UK citizen, you can use the visa waiver program for your entry.

When they ask you how long you're planning on staying, let them know when you plan to leave, and be prepared to show the return ticket if asked.
