Are English people English, are Welsh people Welsh and are Scottish people Scottish ?

This is an idiotic question

I'm English since I was born in England... although technically I'm British since I can't stick "English" on any forms these days. In terms of ancestry, I'd be surprised if any English "indigenous" persons don't have Celtic or Norman blood anywhere in their family tree. Same might not be able to be said for the Welsh and Scots since the Celts seemed to move to/influence North and South-West England. I'd say the Welsh are Welsh; the Scots, Scots; and the English... Equal Opportunity Bloodlines (politically correct?)

Well I like to call a spade a spade. If you are born in England, you are English, if you are born in Wales you are Welsh, and if you are born in Scotland, then you are Scottish. I was born in Northern Ireland and consider myself to be Northern Irish, but as forms will not allow me to put that, then I tick British. You do get some nitpickers who consider themselves to be 'half Irish, half American' and suchlike, but as far as I am concerned, your nationality is whatever country you were born in unless you legally change your citezenship

I am Scottish with an English wife and four English born children, my children were not all that interested in there Scottish bloodline until I told them I am decedent from Viking warriors who settled in Scotland a few hundred years ago and my wife can trace her family line back to seventeenth century Germany

Place of birth determines your nationality. Keep it simple. ( Im Japanese with Welsh parents !

Are bananas bananas?

No. Scottish people are Scots.

I'm from England, but come from a Scottish background i just see myself as English

That may be true of English people because scots, irish and welsh migrated to England in industial revolutions etc and then integrated into England, but that has never really happend on a mass scale in Wales, Scotland or Ireland , I most definetly am Welsh, I speak Welsh as my First language, my grandparents did, they're grandparents did and they're grandparents did. If you'r referring to this well Welsh is my first language therefore me saying that it is is obviously going to sound similar to somebody else who say's that Welsh is their first language FOOl Ffŵl dan din.
