Poll: Are you British or English/Scottish etc?

[Zykon TheLich]

English generally, although I'm in the process of becoming Cornish.

 

[Harlemura]

I say British. Not for any reason, I just made a habit of saying British and not English.

iam a scott and will probly alwas be a scott

 

[cozitmatchesyoureyes]

I say Scottish, mainly becuase I live in England now for University. I do get annoyed like most when people say, "Ah! You must be English! That accent!"

I guess we kinda know how it feels when The Netherlands is called Holland.

As an American reading this thread I am....so confused.

Just to be clear, Britain is the island and England is a country on Britain (again the island) in the UK and the UK is a collection of countries on Britain (again the island) (with the exception of Northern Ireland)?

 

[TheGreenManalishi]

I'm Brummy in England, Enlgish in Britain, and British in the rest of the world.

 

[Lazy Kitty]

Neither, I'm Belgian!

 

[Hotshots]

I'm from Northern Ireland, but I call myself Irish rather than British, due to my families status.

Your Catholic I'm guessing, my Cousin-in-law is from there in a place called the "Shankill road" in Belfast.Apparently hate catholics as does most of Belfast from what I'm told.
Being Italian doesn't help me with that sort of thing.

Your half Italian! bene bene sapere che io non sono il solo, anche se il vostro mezzo Italinan.
My wife is from Northern Ireland but hates being called Irish,love being called British..Never understood why.

 

[Chipperz]

I say I'm British because I'm half English, half Scottish.

 

[Alphavillain]

What's with this obsession with nationality on the Escapist? It's not where you're from, it's where you're going.

 

[Blackmagic1515]

I say British, being part English, part Irish, part Scottish and part Welsh. I'm 100% UK =p

 

[Terramax]

OK, we've done this thread before. This is the first time I've ever asked this on these forums but please use the search bar!

 

[Spygon]

I call myself British because I am half Irish and half English... and British just sounds classier.

Same as this dude and really when the british get together we kick ass

 

[Frequen-Z]

I say English, but only cos my accent makes the way I say 'British' sound all posh and toffy. As a matter of personal opinion, I hold no real favour one way or the other.

 

[Darkmaster127]

I call myself European, mostly because i'm not proud, in any way to be English or British. European i don't mind, so i consider myself as such.
