If you are an English citizen, then you can move back to England.
But if you have violated your probation, the state may require you to spend some time in jail (gaol to you) first.
If you are also a United States citizen, they cannot deport you. But, if not, and your charge is a felony they will. If your charge is a misdemeanour, you might not be deported.
You can express your intent to leave the U.S. and the court may decide to waive any jail time since you are going to be gone. If they are smart they will do that --- saves taxpayers' money that would be spent keeping you in jail.
I wish they would just legalise marijuana and save the jails and courts for real criminals.

No, if you return to England you won't have to serve out your probation there.
The US "may" seek your extradition, but it's very unlikely.
With a drug crime on your record as an alien, you're subject to mandatory deportation and exclusion from the US anyway, so you might as well go home now as wait to be deported.

They can jail you first and then deport you after you serve your time.
Did you forget that you already asked this question and had a lot of replies? Maybe it is time to give up the ganga.
