La question européenne a été peu abordée par les principaux partis politiques britanniques pendant la campagne législative de 2015 malgré les conséquences importantes du résultat sur l’organisation ou non d’un référendum sur le maintien dans l’UE. Pour des raisons différentes, ni les Conservateurs, ni les Travaillistes ni les Libéraux-démocrates n’avaient intérêt à en parler,ce qui a laissé le champ libre à UKIP et dans une moindre mesure le SNP. Contrairement à ce qui s’est passé pendant la campagne, l’Europe va dominer le débat politique outre-Manche jusqu’au référendum, en 2016 ou 2017.
