This implicates, that if the European monarchs had been more successful during the war of the first coalition (before it got "personal" after Napoleons rise to power) Britain might have an interst in supporting France.
An more successful allied campaign against Revolutionary France is hardly impossible, just give Spain more competent monarchs or Prussia better generals or make the counterrevolutionary uprising slightly worse or ...
There might also be some "realpolitical" reasons for Britain to support France, as it would have allowed them to attack the Spanish and Dutch colonial empires while these nations were tied up in an war back home.
Britain was also more liberal than most of its OTL allies and wiki claims that public opinion was intially somewhat friendly toward the revolution. This only changed after the execution of the king, which could easily be butterflied away.
Just imagine Napoleon and Wellington fighting on the same side at Belle Alliance (or where ever they would have met the Prussian-Russian force)
