I will suggest however that the “British” stylesheet be based from the main openstreetmap-carto style, in order to ease maintenance.

Why do you think a British style should get special treatment I wonder?

Should we have a French style and a US style and a Chinese style and...

I mean how exactly do you propose to decide which national styles should 
get special treatment?
