I was born in England so I should be able to state that I am White English on a form, and I also believe any Scottish or Welsh born people would prefer that to be on any official forms.
This is to do with my National identity and is not a race issue as the same should be for the other race options on official forms.
I was born here but with my grandfathers surname I could come from England, Scotland or Germany, and he never told anyone his family history so I have no idea which is correct, but would choose the Scottish heritage option over the other 2.
