British. There is only one nationality in the United Kingdom: British. Nationality is demonstrated by passport, and there are no Scottish, Welsh or Northern Irish passports. However, citizens of Northern Ireland can also carry the passport of the Ireland (ie the "Republic) and citizens of the Ireland can carry British Passport if they were born before 1948. If you mean "Where was Mr Blair born?" then ask that. The answer, I think is England. Nationality and country of birth and upbringing are not the same.

Is this an attempt at demonstrating to the English that despite his accent Tony Blair is really Scottish? Does this really matter in modern day Britain?
