Small point of order, but GB and UK are not the same. Let me explain:
Great Britain is EITHER a geographical description of an island OR a political description of the combination of territories known as England, Scotland and Wales.
United Kingdom is actually short for the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and is a political description of a whole nation.
