The UK is a part of Europe.

Europe geologically although in the UK and Ireland "the continent" is the name for mainland Europe continentals people from there and continental anyway of doing something that is different. Examples would be "continental breakfast" vs a full English/Irish/Scottish/Welsh/British breakfast (depending on where you are!).

Best newspaper quote (albeit from the 1940's) to illustrate this - "Fog in channel, Continent cut off"

The United Kingdom is a part of Europe, even though it is not connected to the mainland (The UK consists of islands).
