I want to move to the u.s from uk. how would i go about this?

and how long would it take? thx

Answer:
Depending on your means of immigrating (i.e. through family or employment), and where in the U.S. you intend to move, the process can take as little as six months, or as long as three or four years.

Family based cases require sponsorship by a member of your nuclear family (parent, spouse, sibling, child) that is either a resident or citizen of the U.S. If you don't have a family sponsor, you would need to explore employment options.

Employment sponsorship, in most cases, requires a job offer from a U.S. company, a labor certification application, an immigrant worker petition, and then a residency application. This process takes longer, but is nonetheless viable.

This is a gross oversimplification of an enormously complex question, but I hope this at least gives you some basic grounding.

Good luck!
Are you insane!? I want to win the lotto and be first in my family to move back to the most remote corner of Scotland I can find! Some place with a few blathering sheep, a few red headed lassies, friendly, mind you. And a good local distillery, or at least a decent moonshiner. Let the world and it's politics's go by.
The easiest way is to fly into Mexico on a tourist visa. Then ask anyone which way is north and start walking.
Why bother? Go to mexico, cross the border, take up a menial labor-intensive job and live the Amexican Dream. You will get full Social Security benefits and once you squirt out a few pups you'll have a legal relative to stay with and swear to you citizenship for amnesty purposes.

Don't waste time and money being legal.
I like both these answers but THINK on this a long time before committing to it.
Go to Mexico as a visitor, cross the border and wait for our stupid government to give amnesty and in the mean time enjoy all the benefits now granted to illegals.
YES, I suppose you keep searching.
