Gisela Stuart, the German born Labour MP for Birmingham-Edgbaston says that the rise of Englishness is a threat to democracy. She is worried by the number of her constituents who now claim to be English rather than British. "It has only been in the last five years or so that I have heard people in my constituency telling me 'I'm not British - I am English'. That worries me".

Well, I'm English, can't do anything about it, like being so, but don't try to be superior about it, although I am proud of England and English achievements.
Gisela is from Bavaria. I know a few proud Bavarians. She's talking rubbish here and should not scaremonger where there are no scares!!
