<p dir="auto">I'm first and foremost British. I love the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, I love the countries individually but recognise that we are all British. People are the same, only the accents change. There's good and bad everywhere.<br />
The only time being English is an issue is when I'm in Scotland or Wales, or if say, England are playing football.<br />
One thing I hate is being called 'European'. I'm not and never will be. My genes have more in common with Australians and Americans than Europeans.</p>

<p dir="auto">I'm both, I'm English and England is a part of Great Britain which makes me British, and Britain is on Earth which makes me an Earthling.<br />
Just as someone from France is both French and European and an Earthling.<br />

<p dir="auto">Interesting question and some interesting answers, certainly worthy of discussion for nearly 2 years.<br />
It's also interesting to see how deep peoples sense of patriotism and need for cultural identity really goes. As 1 or 2 on here have hinted at, you could go as far as to refer to yourself as: A Geordie, Londoner, Yorkshireman, Brummie etc. I believe who you wish to associate yourself or disassociate yourself with largely influences this, as apparent with some Scots, Irish and Welsh. I suppose your answer depends on whether your loyalty is to the Nation, Country, County or city/town/village (even estate in some cases I've seen)<br />
Personally I consider myself to be human. IMO, Nationalism can all to easily  get out of hand, distort opinions and lead to events like we see in this film. But due to the genetic and geographical raffle that is life, I am forced to answer with the following depending on situation:<br />
(<br />
Informally<br />
) I was born in England, or (<br />
formally, e.g. on a consensus form etc<br />
) my nationality is British.<br />
I have Irish and French heritage and not to mention born on part of the continent, so not offended when referred to as European.<br />
But here's some food for thought:<br />
(In my experience and generally speaking)<br />
If I'm outside Europe, I'm referred to as British or European.<br />
Anywhere in Europe, I'm English.<br />
In England though, depending on who I'm speaking to, I'm either a Yorkshireman or (thanks to the BNP) Black! Go figure</p>

<p dir="auto">I consider my self northern English firstly, although i know that my great-grandparents and grandparents are from Scotland/Ireland and Wales. I was born in England and Im a second generation English. But I also consider myself British because of my heritage and extremely proud to be both.<br />

<p dir="auto">Depends on where I am at the time. I consider myself a yorkshireman if Im not in Yorkshire, English if Im in Scotland, British if Im in France, European if Im arguing with an American (heh), Western and finally Earthian (should we encounter any other x-ians). If we have a local kids footy match with the next village, Im a Killamarshan, not a Beightonian.</p>

<p dir="auto">I consider myself English but it's not like I'd go mental if someone called me British. It's more out of a love for England, Scotland, Ireland and Wales that I like to think of us as four separate nations, each with its own people who I respect and admire. It's one of the joys of being British that we can be other things too.<br />

<p dir="auto">Interesting subject. We have the same topic of discussion in the United States. I consider myself both a Texan and an American, but the former first. In the past, being a "Southerner" might have been a candidate as well, but that one has largely withered away. I also have heritage from every country in the British Isles, but those bands are from hundreds of years ago, far too removed for me to still consider myself, Irish, Scottish, English, or otherwise.</p>
