ArchivesRe: OT, sorry
in reply to a message by Michelle
It's different in the uk. Everyone is Scottish, English, Welsh etc before british i think. It's certainly the case for most scots.
Scotland have their own laws and parliament that only affect scotland, but the parliament in London still has control over scotland in some matters. Every MP (member of parliament) can vote on a law that will only effect england and wales but the MP could be scottish. The law may affect scotland indirectly by altering their budget for something or more people applying to scottish universities.
In some ways it's like the USA but it is still very different. We aren't all english just because we're brittish. We all have the same queen and so were unified which in turn led us all to have the same government.
