Assuming you're from the UK or Republic of Ireland (or most other parts of the EU), then no. You will get automatically a 3 month holiday visa when you enter the US.
However if you have a criminal record at home you are likely to have problems, as I think that anyone with a record is not allowed in the US.
Check your local US Embassy website (e.g. the US embassy in London, not the British Embassy in Washington). They are usually good at explaining tourist visa regulations.
You could try visiting their embassy or a consulate (Edinburgh, Cardiff, Belfast), but I wouldn't recommend phoning them. They usually use expensive phone numbers normally reserved for chat lines(!)

If you are from the UK and on a package holiday no just fill out the waiver form on the plane, you must have a bio passport( one that can be machine read),also anyone with a criminal record I think has to have a visa

No, for an average visit of no more than 90 days you can travel within the USA. You need an address where you staying at for at least the first night, this can be a hotel, friend's address or car rental place.

Nothing needed for a simple visit - holiday or business meetings. Seek advice for extended business trips

You should check with your local American Embassy. Lots of changes coming up in the New Year. I am from Canada, I will need a passport to go to the U.S.

You do not need a visa visiting U.S.A., unless you have your British Passport handy with you.

Depends where you are from. If you're from the UK no, you just fill out a waiver form on the plane.

It depends on which country you are from.
