英国政党政治形势

Abstract:Brexit has become the dominant issue in the UK party politics during 2018-2019 as the deadline approaches. The Conservatives have been deeply divided over the details of Brexit arrangements. Theresa May resigned after her deal had been rejected by parliament for the third time. Labour still holds a vague and passive position on the issues of Brexit and shifted its position from supporting soft Brexit to a second referendum，which has also reflected its dilemma in the electoral politics. The debates over Brexit have transcended the traditional divisions between parties and social classes. During the protracted Brexit process，party politics in the UK is likely to become more divided and fragmented. As Boris Johnson came to power，the possibility of Britain leaving the EU with no deal has increased，and Britain’s society，economy and politics have been faced with greater risks and uncertainties.
