How British are you?

[gavroche]

According to AncestryDNA, the British people are only 31% Anglo-Saxon, 22% Irish, 20% French/German and the rest from different European countries. One consolation for Yorkshire people, you are 41% Anglo-Saxon.
So, to those who voted out of Europe, you got it all wrong as you are more European than British.

I am not British, I am SCOTTISH!!

 

[Dayvo]

Who the hell cares where their ancestors come from? That has nothing to do with the here and now.

I don't think everyone who voted to leave the EU has a problem with other Europeans, more like a problem with those who run the EU i'd say.

Please no heavy political replies. I'm only saying how i see it.

You reckon?

Not really, our name has Scandinavian routes..... But I'd still like to think so, yes!

You might be from Essex, too: Barking!

Hardee har har!!

Anglo-Saxon is not the origin of British people, we are a Celtic country, all the rest were invaders (including the Saxons)

 

[marinyork]

Identity and nationality are certainly not necessarily the same things.

 

[Onthedrops]

English first, British second but overall Yorkshire.

 

[jefmcg]

British is a nationality, not a race.

We are all from Africa anyway if you go back far enough.

(oh, and don't get all hoity-toity about being homo sapien either - if you are white then you probably have a significant amount of Neanderthal DNA)

Are you talking about Prince Phillip, perchance?

He must be, you know what a staunch royalist he is.
