Соединенное Королевство развивается благодаря периодически достигаемому политическому компромиссу, способному смягчить главное противоречие британской политической системы – дихотомию принципов верховенства парламента и регионального самоуправления. Оба принципа во многом связаны с самоидентификационными процессами, отражающими значение «британскости» и региональной (этнонациональной) идентичности в сознании и политической культуре граждан. Ситуация борьбы или примирения этих двух идентичностей была усложнена появлением общеевропейской идентичности после вступления Британии в общий рынок. Очевидно, что европейская идентичность усилила региональные идентичности, продемонстрировав этнонациональным сообществам преимущество «быть еще одним народом Европы», нежели просто национальным меньшинством внутри государства. Тем не менее «британскость» сохраняет позиции благодаря глобальному британскому проекту, подпитываясь от него, что и было доказано Брекзитом. Он тем не менее указал на очевидные разделительные линии внутри государства, основанные на идентичностях, и на угрозу территориальной целостности Британии. 

The United Kingdom has been developing due to political compromise that has a positive impact over British political system to solve dichotomy between the principles of Parliament sovereignty and regional home rule. These principles seriously depend on selfidentification processes that reflect significance of Britishness and ethno-national (regional) identities in consciousness and political culture of citizens. Struggle or reconciliation of the identities was complicated after Great Britain had become a member of European Common market. It is evident that European identity has enforced regional ones, for it is better to be a people among other peoples in Europe than just an ethno-national minority in the state. However, Britishness keeps its positions due to British global project, and it was proved by Brexit. Anyway, Brexit revealed demarcation lines, based on identities, and the threat of territorial integrity of the United Kingdom.
