[Andy L.]

I think the simplest way to answer this is to say that in the same way that all people in America are American but are also Hispanic American, Polish American, etc., everyone in Britain is British, and at the same time English British, Welsh British, Asian British etc. Britain has always been a multiethnic country, and at the creation of Britain (when England and Scotland were united), the decision was made deliberately to use this non-sectarian title to make the state representative of all. To keep this short, I suppose what I am trying to say is that while my nationality is British, my ethnic origin is English (with a bit of Irish and God alone knows what else thrown in), and my cultural origin is Anglo-British.
