Scandinavian FTW.

I'm ashamed to call myself British (Lapdog of Yankland) so I use North East England's cultural past to define my demonym.

That's possibly the most ridiculous thing I've heard in a while. If you lived somewhere like the Shetland isles then I might actually have some sympathy.

Anyway, back to topic...

On any form which asks for my Nationality, I do, and always will proudly put BRITISH. I'm a Unionist.

British first, English second.

Yeah, I'm a Unionist all the same but until we aren't seen as the lapdog, I'm Scandinavian to any American that may ask.

Westcountryman

Well since you're from the North East, this message is even more important than usual....

DON'T VOTE LABOUR.

...because you cannot write in English without making mistakes which an Englishman would not make.

It's separatist!

I beg to differ. Are England and ENG-ER-LAND the same thing?

I'm British first too. Born and raised in Scotland, but proud to be British.

Regarding application forms. There is one large company (don't know if I'm allowed to name it here) that has omitted British from it's list of Ethnic Origins. It has White European and White Irish, but not British.
