In britain, is it illegal for a human to be stuffed once deceased (I want to be taken to a taxidermist rather than buried or cremated)??

I don't think so, that is to say I don't think it is illegal to preserve a body. The preserved body of Jeremy Bentham is kept at UCL in London so people can look at him.
In fact here is a picture I have found on his body on display in it's glass tank (complete with Victorian clothes). http://praxeology.net/bentham.htm

You could always leave your body to these people:

btw, I don't think taxidermists appreciate the word "stuffed".
