More details from petition creator
it is time to amend the politically correct census form,i find it offensive that you cannot just enter that you are english or scottish,welsh or northern irish. to state you are either white british or black british,denotes the widening divisions in this country and find the form racist against the majority of people in this country.john prescott stated there is no such nationality as english,only british,he is wrong,i was born in the united kingdom which is the four countries mentioned,which make up great britain,without england ,wales scotland and northern ireland,there is no great britain
