A British passport (or other West-European passport) is as good as a US one (or even better) in terms of visa-free travel.
And in terms of working and living abroad, a British passport gives you the automatic right to live and work in 28 countries (EU + Iceland, Switzerland and Norway) + probably a few Commonwealth countries, whereas a US passport gives you the automatic right to live and work in ... 1 country. Seems an easy choice to me!
