It’s interesting to me how stark the Scottish-English divide is. I would’ve expected at least a little bit of people in northern England identifying as Scottish and vice versa in southern Scotland

This is pretty out of date. There’s data from the 2021/2022 census now.
The main difference is that England is almost entirely „British“ now because they reordered the answers.

I get genuinely jealous of the other nations because flashing the St George, ~~or even just wearing an England shirt on a quick jog~~ — sadly — brandishes you as a bit of a thug. Has done for decades.
I’ve been trying own it in recent years, but the sentiment is prevalent. I’m fairly certain every comment I make in /Europe is read through a negative lens initially because I don the England flair over the UK one.

Northern Ireland has changed considerably between 2011 and 2021.
In 2011, British identity outnumbered Irish identity in 20 of the 26 districts shown (the 1993 local government districts). In 2021, British identity outnumbered Irish in 14 out of these 26 – [https://build.nisra.gov.uk/en/custom/data?d=PEOPLE&v=LGD93&v=NAT_ID_BASIC&p=1](https://build.nisra.gov.uk/en/custom/data?d=PEOPLE&v=LGD93&v=NAT_ID_BASIC&p=1)

The southern bit of Wales identifying more as „Welsh“ is lowkey funny because southern Wales is the home of Welsh Cricket lol

It’s very interesting to me how England has historically mixed cultures over time. Like the viking settled at one point, the Romans.. now you guys have many cultures in a small area and I think it’s cool. In the US it’s much more spread out yet also intermixed

Londoners and Ulster Protestants in a rare display of unity.

If „Londoner“ were an identity on the list I wonder how many of the population of London would identify that way? I don’t really perceive it as being part of England – it has its own identity.

Contrast on this map is awful, London looks Scottish

Obligatory ‘Oimmm Briddish’ said aloud to myself when I seen the NI stats . It’s the only place in the UK that I’ve heard people identify themselves as British so this tracks

After the 2011 Census thew government saw English people and said, „absolutely bloody not“ and biased the 2021 Census to trick people into saying „British“ instead.
It’s wild how little acknowledge and understood this event is: the government has been gaslighting an entire nation.

It’s quite funny that the reason people are British in Northern Ireland and London are for pretty much opposite political reasons.

They’re missing United-Kingdom-ish. I guess (Great) British is close.

The consensus being British in London is cool

Why dont you unify already?
Edinburgh is an absolute disgrace
Has Scotland taken over London?
GLENCOE AVENGED!
This is outdated: at the [2021–2022 censuses](https://www.reddit.com/r/MapPorn/comments/1cycv99/national_identity_in_the_uk_from_the_202122/), the primary identity in England was ‚British‘. The [Office for National Statistics](https://www.ons.gov.uk/peoplepopulationandcommunity/culturalidentity/ethnicity/bulletins/nationalidentityenglandandwales/census2021) attributed this to ‚British‘ appearing before ‚English‘ on the relevant question on the census form.

Why isn’t Northern Irish more of an identity?
