eurosceptic

eurosceptic
   The term that became fashionable in the 1990s to describe a person who is opposed to European integration and is sceptical of the European Union, its aims, policies and practices. Most eurosceptics wish to try and reverse the tide of integration, often using terms such as ‘repatriating’ powers to the UK.
