A ridiculous thread/post really - the "British" are a polyglot mixture of dozens of races/ethnicities.

You cannot call the British a racially pure ethnic group - rather a cultural group.

Welsh, Scottish, Irish, Cornish and the English (to sub-divide) are equally as mixed and "mongrel" (in the non-pegorative meaning of the word) as the "British" in general.

Like most nations on earth - we are a real mixture... and its no bad thing as long as we remember it...

All the people living in the British Isles today have decendants from Celtic origins. Celts first appeared in France and Germany but then following the Roman conquest of Europe they had to move over the English Channel to the England and they stayed there. So all the Welsh, Irish, Scottish and English are actually Celtic people.

Your ignorance is breathtaking.

Try reading up about the history of these people of the UK:
Angles
Saxons
Jutes
Danes
Norwegians
Picts
Normans
Dutch
French Hugenots
Afro-Carribeans
Indians
Pakistanis
Jews
Black Africans
Turkish
Italians

And that list is not exhaustive....

This is like how all the people in the world are decendants of Turks?
