If you have gained British Nationality, are you English or Scottish etc. or just Other?

Question

I was answering someone else's question, saying that the British can be divided up into English, Scottish, Welsh and Northern Irish. Then I started wondering about people who have gained British Nationality, i.e. immigrants, people who have married British nationals etc. Do they count as English or Scottish or anything? Or are they British and that's it?

Answer 1

guess they would be just British - of course to the British they would never truely belong (even if they were born there). Sad but I saw a lot of racism when I lived there

Answer 2

You are British, and then depending on wheter you live in England, Wales, Scotland or Northern Ireland, you can call yourself Scottish, Welsh etc.
Although I must add, that the Scots and Irish speak Gaelic and the Welsh, well Welsh. So you'll never be Welsh in the sense that you speak Welsh.
Hope this helps.

Answer 3

You are a United Kingdom Citizen which means the lot, which
extends you to the European Union! Your passport will be the
same as others within the European Union , with the exception that
yours will have "United Kingdom" printed on the cover in bold
letters.

Answer 4

I think its called British Citizenship.

Answer 5

i dont think immigrants count as english or anything, probably british and other.

Answer 6

which ever country they gained it, but i assume it will be british (then whatever)
