Interestingly, in the UK, we wouldn't tend to distinguish between Welsh/Scottish/English in terms of ethnicity (we're on the forms as White British, and that's the only way it really works). If you take it a step further back, we'd be as likely to be Scandinavian/Germanic/French as Picts or Beaker folk.
That's a question of national identity more than ethnicity. It matters to people whether they identify as as English or British or Welsh but that's across ethnic types.
