All that means to me is I have a birth right to live in this country. It just so happens that right extends to the rest of the UK, not just England, and I probably could live in Wales, I'm only ten miles away as it is, but I could never identify as Welsh, that would seem ridiculous to me. I'm British by law, and English by identity. I could move to New Zealand and gain citizenship, but I would never call myself a Kiwi.
