Beliebteste nationale Identität, die von britischen Bürgern in den Volkszählungen 2021/2022 gemeldet wurde. Die Zahlen beziehen sich auf ausschließliche Identitäten (z. B. „Waliser“-Zahlen beinhalten nicht die Option „Waliser und Briten“ auch bei der Volkszählung).

People in England identify as British over English?
Odd to have a top category as 60+, I suspect where I am in Wales it is 95+
Can you choose multiple national identities in England, Scotland and Wales (if you want to) like here in Northern Ireland?
Goes to show that Yorkshire wasn’t put as an option on the census form.
Is this map correct?, most people I know would say they’re English rather than British.
No option for Cornish?
The UK is such a mongrel nation
Wow a map that shows exactly the predicted data
English ffs
Devolution in the UK is weird. Sometimes its Britain for all but Britain doesn’t include N. Ireland so thats the UK but what about Overseas Territories they’re „British“ but not in Britain the Island, then you have the weird sports mixes. British & Irish Lions, but in football you can’t mix nations you’ll get stabbed but its all fair in Olympics for team GB, which includes plenty of Northern Irish who are not from Britain. 😅
My dumbass looking at the cutout of Northern Ireland: „hmm, Isle of Man is bigger than I remember…lots of Irish, too.“
Wow, didn’t know we were so divided! 😂
I find it really interesting the rate of Scottish and Welsh is actually lower in the rural areas of both countries, whilst the more urban and industrial valleys in Wales and central belt in Scotland have higher rates of both. I’m from rural Scotland and I suspect it’s to do with English people moving in, or more conservative people who consider themselves British rather than Scottish. Would be curious to know
Edit: Edinburgh is a notable exception to this of course
The „british“ should leave ireland
This isn’t so different from how Canadians identify. Ontario is the dominant province and was quite literally Upper Canada before Canada existed. People in other provinces (esp. Quebec) tend to identify more strongly with their province than the country as a whole. You’ll find plenty of Albertans and Quebecers who put their province first.
