Euroscepticism and its roots The open sea Why British opposition to the EU goes deep Oct 17 th, 2015 BRITISH EUROSCEPTICS tend to see the late Lady Thatcher as their inspiration. But it was an earlier Tory prime minister who first suggested that Britain would stand aside from post-war moves towards European integration. His stance helps explain why the country remains ambivalent today. In Zurich in September 1946 , Winston Churchill called not just for reconciliation between France and Germany but also for a “kind of United States of Europe”. But he made clear that this would not include Britain: as he once told Charles de Gaulle, if forced to choose between the continent and the open sea, Britain would always go for the second. Yet historically it seems strange that Britain should want to stand apart from the rest of Europe. It is not just that the British repeatedly fought wars to stop French (and later German) domination of the continent. In the 18 th century the Hanoverian kings added an even more direct connection through marriage. And the story of Britain throughout the 18 th and 19 th centuries, including its acquisition of an overseas empire, grew out of its rivalry with other European powers. Going further back, Robert Tombs points out in his book, “The English and their History”, that after the Battle of Hastings in 1066 and the Norman conquest England had a direct link to the western part of the continent for over 400 years, longer than it has been joined with Scotland.
