It's a nation as is scotland, Wales and Northern ireland
Lets see what the wiki god says.

"England Listeni/ˈɪŋɡlənd/ is a country that is part of the United Kingdom."

The Red Arrows could have spelt out DUDE in the sky in red white and blue smoke.....
I'm sitting here singing Jerusalem as I type, eating honey for tea and wearing a bobby's hat.

Americans (and those who have lived there most of their lives) often refer to the UK as 'England'.

When I was in Vegas I got into a conversation with a taxi driver who thought Scotland was a former soviet state

I'm going to claim my Scottish half in that case then (Even though I was born and lived my whole life in England)



Yes this applies to me too. How dare she talk for me. The man is a massive tool, with zilch personality. A person needs more than looks imo.

Less than 10% of them have a passport, and most have never been out of the state they were born in. They know about England because they purportedly speak English.

An American once told me he had been to Wales, he said he went to visit Edinburg Castle.

People say Scotland is proud etc and not an eye flickers, people say England is proud and it's like world war 3.
No one would say Scotland is proud in a UK based programme watched by the UK public unless it was a specifically Scottish person, and even then they probably wouldn't as it's a vote loser.

They should have played Nimrod in the background and had a Churchill impersonator read the Kipling poem while the Red Arrows did a flypast and sprinkled confetti, ripped from the pages of the original Magna Carta, over the garden.

.

Yep! they sure missed a trick there

I wonder if his mum was proud as he sat and listened to what Perez said to him then went scuttling to tell the horrors in the bedroom what he had said. Why didn't he say it to Perez's face? .
