Did you know that the UK isn't England?

Yeah, that place out 'there'. Anything not really Cambodia related should go here.

Did you know the UK isn't just England?

Yes - I knew a Brit is not necessarily English person, and I shouldn't refer to the UK as England.

100%
No - I thought the UK was just England and English people, and it makes no difference to call it England and miss out the other THREE countries.

There was a survey conducted on BBC and over 60% of the people in the UK didn't the know the difference between the United Kingdom and Great Britain.

I have to say something here. That is weak. They were not immigrants answering the questionnaire. It just comes down to the Brits lapping at the monarchs' feet for so long while she pisses all over the Brits. It's ingrained.

As for Nationality .... if you are from England, your nationality is English. Your national flag is England. The UK is a sovereign state. Sorry to have to break it to you. Google 'UK' and I think it should be there somewhere.

I am British and English, my flags are the British flag and the English flag, sorry to break it to you, but my passport says I am British.

As for the Queen, we do not lap at her feet, and she pissed on no one.
So, um, uh, what is your nationality? You can't have two from one country. :?:

Could I just request that the admins and moderators let us decide our nationality by having the flags of the UK separated . I'd rather see a Saltire than a Union Jack below my posts. Google it boys.
Yes sir, I can boogie, I can boogie, boogie, boogie all night long.
