The problem here, is that we have Britain, which is England, Wales, and Scotland, and we are The United Kingdom, which is England, Wales, Scotland and N.Ireland.
Since at least 2002, even though we have the nation of England, there has not been an English Nationality.
I'm not really trying to start a war here, but note, as has been pointed out time, and time again, the majority nationality of our goverment, and they have purposely, only, except for the odd minister, appointed ministers of that nationality to office, and the trait is continuing, under a Browne goverment.

I find this a bit confusing. I'm english cos i was born in England, though I know my nationality is British because I have a British passport. There's an english football team but as far as I know there isn't a british football team.
Where did english stop becoming english? Are we going to be speaking british shortly as well?

As I was born in Edinburgh to parents who were also born in Edinburgh I always say that I'm Scottish. On any official document I usually put British........I never say that I'm European! My ex husband was a Londoner and both my sons were born there but raised in Scotland, they regard themselves as Scottish, although English by birth! They do however like to follow West Ham and always support the English National football team.........unless they are playing the Scottish national team of course! Goodness that's all a bit confusing!
NJOK,
I had a feeling you were going to come up with a non answer, and in answer to your second reply, I put the phone number on naomi's thread, give them a call and find out.
Pippa68,
I phoned the Nationality Office, to be sure of where I stand on this, according to them, there are no more nations in the United Kingdom, only British, and yes, I know this opens up more questions than answers.
la francaise,
those are the sort of questions i'm talking about.
Haggisdj,
Thats what I was told, have a look at naomi's thread a couple below this, for the phone number.
