Although I hate citing Wikipedia as the definitive source on anything, this makes sense to me:

Euroscepticism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Euroscepticism has become a general term for opposition to the process of further European integration.

(edit)

Euroscepticism in the United Kingdom (UK) is a very controversial issue and has been a significant element in British politics since the inception of the European Economic Community (EEC), the predecessor to the European Union (EU). Eurosceptic views have not diminished following UK membership of the Union.

However, their nature and bases have tended to change over the years

**************************************************

I'm not aware of a "Eurosceptic British Party" per se, but as an ideological plank I know that the BNP is Eurosceptic and I believe that the Conservatives are as well, and perhaps other UK parties.
