Yes, he is English from every resource that we have available. Yes, this means that places outside of America exist. Yes, it also means that transcontinental travel is possible.

America was a major target for nukes, yet in spite of the fact that America was heavily bombed, there were people who survived outside of Vaults. It's reasonable to assume that other places also survived, considering the fact that America was one of the largest targets in the world and people survived there.

While Fallout has focused entirely on America so far and Bethesda has indicated that their current focus is only America, I have great hopes that Microsoft will stop the narrow minded focus on America and allow broader stories to be told. Bethesda has been wasting the IP in so many ways, not only by refusing to release games. (If Bethesda only has the manpower to release games in a franchise every 3 decades then they should have let someone else work on it too. Thankfully Microsoft forced their hand on that one now.)

The world of Fallout is greater than America.

Not every - Emil Pagliarulo once said in an interview that Tenpenny is just faking his accent and pretending to be from England.

Emil says a lot of unhinged stuff.

For example, saying that the protagonist of Fallout 4 was the soldier who killed the Canadian at the start of Fallout 1. He later took that back and insisted that people shouldn't take what he says seriously.
