It’s a leafhopper (family: Cicadellidae).
This can be a difficult group to ID and being bright yellow doesn’t necessarily narrow down the possibilities that much. There are some subgroups which can only be separated via dissection. Some however are actually not so difficult. Have a browse through the British Bugs site here for more: http://www.britishbugs.org.uk/gallery/homoptera/Cicadellidae/Cicadellidae.html
