Disgraced ex-UK minister wants the term British to be scrapped

London, Nov.12 : Disgraced ex-minister Ron Davies has called for scrapping the term 'British'. He told staff the word upsets people from Scotland, Wales, Ireland, Asia and China. Davies, 62, now an independent on Caerphilly Council, has drawn up guidelines that say "many Scots, Welsh and Irish resist being called British".

Davis quit Labour's Cabinet in 1998 after being mugged at a London gay haunt.
