Might be my outsider view but I don't see much representation of the opinions of Scottish, Northern Irish or Welsh. It's almost always English here English there. Do the others matter less in UK politics, do they align pretty much to English opinions, or it's just sloppy a way of generally referring to UK citizens?
- jahnu 4y agoIt’s probably mostly just down to the fact that there are a lot more English citizens than others. Historically, England is richer and until recently all important decisions were made in London. Then there is the fact that most Americans and especially in American media British=English and even then mostly Southern English so that influences how outsiders view the place. I lived in England for a few years and Scotland for one and yeah it’s true the opinions of the other parts weren’t really considered by English people, by and large.
