Jerome Bonaparte secretly admired Britain's opportunistic behavior.
For an island nation detached from the European Continent, the Kingdom of Britain is naturally a troublemaker. Their core policy lies in the European balance strategy, so expecting them to risk themselves for the Sardinian Dynasty is simply a fantasy.
Perhaps Palmerston himself is also waiting for the French Republic to make a move, otherwise the Austrian Empire's sphere of influence would encroach upon France's southern route.
Given that the differences within the Holy Alliance have not yet reached a breaking point, Jerome Bonaparte estimated that Britain would also be unwilling to act on its own without allies.
