While from a geological perspective, the British Isles are part of Europe, they are culturally, legally, politically, socially and linguisitically different. Note that in most of Europe you are visiting places in which Jews used to live before they were killed or driven off, and where most Jewish communities are debating where to emigrate to (and importation of perhaps millions of anti-Semitic Muslims will probably speed that up), whereas in Britian while there are some historic places for the most part one speaks of British Jewry in a present and future tense.
