Summary: | The British, generally caricatured as Eurosceptics, are considered as the «bad students» of Europe, more turned towards the Atlantic than towards continental Europe. Statistical sources that have constituted the Eurobarometer of the European Commission since 1973 allow the measurement of the state of British public opinion on European issues, to compare it to other states and to understand its evolution in time. We will explain what the origin of British specificity on European issues is, examine the British representations of their own nation and their relation to Europe, the resonance that the positioning of the opinion may have on public policies and vice versa, and the role of the British press as vector of Eurosceptic representations. |
