What do you call yourself?

Ha ha! Me too!

Seems to me someone ‘less Scottish’ than the natives is more stridently ‘Scottish’. Strange that.

SueDonim I had never heard of Godwin’s law!

Vichy Scots

Godwin’s law has been invoked. The poster has lost the argument.

English ❤️

Half Scots, half English, but proud to be British!

British, English, Londoner. I did not vote for Brexit and wish we were remaining in the EU but I don't regard myself as European even though I suppose I am.

English and American.

Born, bred and rooted in North East England with it's interests stamped in my dna like the letters in Blackpool rock. Then English, British and European.

Scottish, British (because that's more or less what my passport says), European.

DH was born in England but has lived in Scotland for over 50 years, and is sorry that he can't be "officially" Scottish.

I say I'm British, but have always wanted to be American for some strange reason. Even when I was a kid I felt like that too. I've been over there loads of times and always feel at home there. Maybe I'm just a bit weird

We used to go on leave to the U.K. but when my best friend went home to Scotland and others went to Wales I became English and came home to England. I think the English used to think of themselves as British, not so much now. Bit sad really. I never really understood it when I was a child. I thought we were all the same.
I can’t identify with a county, born in Tynemouth, parents are from Lancashire now I’m in Norfolk.

Im very proud to be Scottish.

English, through and through

I’m Scottish and proud ,but I’m with you Jane10 in that I am embarrassed by the “Wha’s like us” trumpeting of nationalists. Every part of the UK has much to be proud of.

English.

Totallylost You beat me to it.
I've noticed that the Scots, Irish and Welsh seem to identify themselves as their nation but the English seem to put their County first.
Is this because England is a Country made up of several Kingdoms annexed into one Country and we still identify ourselves locally and not Nationally ?

Great Britain (GB) always sounds so bumptious. It's like something Trump would come up with.
I like United Kingdom (UK)

I lived for many years in Scotland, have relatives in Wales and Ireland but was born in England, it’s interesting that I’ve noticed over the years that Scots, Irish and the Welsh are all (in the main) loud and proud to proclaim their heritage, but the English are either embarrassed or made to feel boastful if they say they are a English or are automatically associated with the BNP element of society.

(I would once have said East Anglian, but the borders have moved. It now seems to include half the Home Counties)

Norfolk - English - British. Although it depends who I'm talking to. Americans get confused.

I like Order of British Excellence welbeck.

Used to call myself British now call myself European too ashamed of all that is going on here now to want to be a a Brit any more

Welsh. A valleys girl .

i don't really think in these terms.
but as an aside, i am interested in how language and terms change over time.
has anyone else noticed how internationally we are now always referred to as UK, whereas in the past it was more Britain, or even GB.
i know strictly speaking that does not include NI, but i am meaning colloquially, not officially, and frankly many British people do not understand the Irish situation.
i wonder if it was a hang-on from the term the British Empire in the past, which is now in the mists of time.
by the way i hope they do change OBE/MBE etc to be more inclusive. easily changed to, order of british excellence.
