British or..?

[-:Undertaker:-]

United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland

This is just a quick question for those who live or come from United Kingdom or its oversea colonies, do you consider yourself mainly British or mainly English/Welsh/Scottish/Northern Irish or Oversea colony (such as Gibraltar) and why, what makes you more inclined to feel that way?

Will be interesting to see results and reasons given, in recent years of course this has become a hot topic with devolution weakening the union between the four countries that make up the sovereign state of the United Kingdom.



Flag of England


Flag of Scotland



Flag of Wales

Flag of Northern Ireland (Ulster)

I consider myself British and always have done, I barely feel a connection with the country England and feel more cultured towards Great Britain with its history and just in general with the flag and so on.
