By default I talk about the Britain (geography, UK the country). If I'm talking about England I'll mention it specifically. It could be English bias but to me the North is a concept that can mean something between north of Watford gap, to specifically northern England. As you say, most British people on here are English, and I'd guess most of those are from the south, so if I'm invoking some sort of concept of 'The North', it's probably in contrast to those southerners. Personally I feel culturally closer to Scotland than London, so I'm not looking to exclude Scotland here. The problem is the language. I've conflated the south and London, and I've described my self as British rather than UKish.
