"British" refers to citizens of the United Kingdom.

"English" refers to citizens of England.

The United Kingdom, apart from some overseas islands, has 4 members. These are:

  • If you are referring to the people of England, you use the term "English".
  • If you are referring to the people of Scotland, you use the term "Scottish".
  • If you are referring to the people of Wales, you use the term "Welsh".
  • If you are referring to the people of N. Ireland, you use the term "Irish".
  • If you are referring to the people of the United Kingdom or one or more of the countries in the UK, then you use the term "British".
