By building a powerful counter-elite
Another contradiction between popular and elite Euroscepticism, is that while Brexit may have mobilised discontent with globalisation, from the 1990s most Eurosceptics espoused a hyperglobalist vision for the future of British capitalism.

There is an excellent article by @davidlawton.bsky.social on William Rees-Mogg's attempt to judicially review the Maastricht Treaty, challenging the right of the executive to do this without Parliament. (Quite a contrast to his son in 2016-19...)
