General characteristics of changes in UK party system in the context of the withdrawal from the EU

Abstract

The relevance of this study lies in the fundamental changes that are taking place in the UK party system in the context of the country's withdrawal from the European Union.Such changes include the growing influence of Eurosceptic views in the ideological paradigm of British political parties, a shift in the focus of party attention from common European issues to domestic ones, and the transformation of the content of programme documents.The article is aimed to build a holistic model of transformational changes in the party system of Great Britain after the implementation of the results of the referendum on the withdrawal from the EU.
