Isn't British inoffensive to Scots? Odd he decided to bundle an entire nation with whiskey :P

I think people in the UK who refer to themselves as "British" are actually in the minority - most people I know would say they are English, Scottish etc.
It's inoffensive but can be taken hesitantly as a lot of people seem to mistakenly think it's synonymous with "English".
