In order to do this, the work is divided into two parts: first, it summarises the two main Eurosceptic arguments: the need to reduce low-skilled immigration and the search for greater economic sovereignty; then, it describes the role and electoral performance of each of the four parties previously mentioned. In the second part, understanding that the result of the referendum ended up evincing and deepening nationalist cleavages inside the United Kingdom, particularly in Scotland and Northern Ireland where the majority of citizens voted in favour of remaining in the European Union, a brief summary of the history of Scottish and Irish nationalisms is done, exhibiting the incidence of Brexit and the pandemic in these. It is concluded that the unease generated by Brexit poses a potential threat to the future integrity of the United Kingdom.  Este artículo analiza la reciente alza del nacionalismo británico que se dio en el Reino Unido de la mano de cuatro partidos políticos clave (Britain First, UKIP, Brexit Party y Conservative Party), los cuales impulsaron una demanda euroescéptica que desembocó finalmente en el Brexit. Para esto, el trabajo se divide en dos partes: primero, se resumen los dos argumentos euroescépticos principales: la necesidad de reducir la inmigración poco calificada y la exigencia de una mayor soberanía económica; luego, se describe el rol y desempeño electoral de cada uno de los cuatro partidos mencionados previamente. En la segunda parte, entendiendo que el resultado del referéndum terminó evidenciando y profundizando clivajesnacionalistas al interior del Reino Unido, particularmente en Escocia e Irlanda del Norte, donde el grueso de la ciudadanía votó a favor de permanecer en la Unión Europea, se realiza un repaso histórico de los nacionalismos escocés e irlandés, exhibiendo la incidencia que tuvo el Brexit y la pandemia en éstos. Se concluye que el malestar generado por el Brexit pone potencialmente en juego la futura integridad del Reino Unido.
