They say ‘British’ when they mean ‘English’, and ‘English’ when they should say ‘British.’ And when England, more than the rest of the UK, voted to leave the EU, polls showed national identity was a big concern.

He tracks down the origins of English respect for the rule of law, tolerance and a love of political stability
