I doubt it if a true genetic line could be traced to this country even the Celts came from France.We are all the bastard offspring from other races even our language is a mixture of others.
kind of pisses on those BNP types doesn't it.

Well I'm of partly Nordic descent as are most of the people of the North of Britain, many Scottish people are of Pictish or Irish descent, many Welsh, and Cornish people are of Romano-British descent and so on. I would guess probably only around 10-25% of caucasian British people are of pure Anglo-Saxon heritage. I guess in areas like the Isle of Mann there has never been an Anglo-Saxon majority.
Leicester has less than a 50% caucasian population, but as long as everyone there speaks English and works hard for a decent Britain then who cares about ethnicity?

No, genetic finding out has proved that Anglo-Saxon ethnic cleansing not in any respect extremely got here about because the conventional English man or woman is better probable to have Celtic or Scandinavian ancestry than be of Anglo-Saxon descent. between 50 to seventy 5 % of those examined for DNA haplotypes in southern England are the direct descendants of Celts. accordingly, the Angles and Saxons' legacy is linguistic truly than genetic. certainly, some geneticists communicate about that the conventional English citizen's haplotype has remained an same because the first settlers on English soil crossed the land bridge that linked a pre-Ice Age England to the ecu continent, and that their closest cousins on the ecu continent on Spanish Basques. note to John: certain, i recognize that DNA "information" does no longer completely set up what easily takes position. Your submit is a theory, reminiscent of mine. as well, no matter if the females' DNA stayed an same, shouldn't the male DNA replaced with the arrival of the Angles, Jutes, and Saxons? likely the "invading" Angl0o-Saxon way of life absorbed and assimilated England's Celtic inhabitants who did not destroy out to Cornwall, Wales, and Scotland. in spite of everything, William the Conqueror's kin married into King Harold's kin after the Norman Conquest.

I don't think there have been any people for centuries who could have called themselves 'true' Anglo-Saxons of a pure genetic bloodline, the Normans did such a good job of inter-breeding in the country when they took over. Not to mention previous inter-marriage with the Celts etc. I suspect you are really meaning when will white people be the ethnic minority?

Btw you can't even argue that the Australian aboriginals are truly native to their country, they came from Asia (i think they know they must have because there are no skeletons of humanoid apes in australia?).

Don't be so silly. The British Isles have always flourished by the movement of people into the islands from all over the world at at all stages of history. the Anglo Saxons, as their name tells you were people from more than one area of Europe and Scandinavia so there never were true Anglo Saxons and when they came they mixed with the Celts, who incidentally came from eastern Europe, and the descendants of the Romans and romanised people from all over Europe who had settled here during the roman occupation.
People like you amaze me. You cant spell, you ask stupid questions and you don't even bother to find out the basic facts

What do you mean true Anglo Saxon, they are just a bunch of Germans who pushed us real British into the corners of our country. We, the Celts (welsh, which means foreigner in you original language) were here (in OUR country) before you bloody Germans.
I have to laugh at St George flag waving types, they don't even know they are just immigrants themselves.
Hey, there is only 3 million of us left, stand buy for being a minority Rupert.
Good question though, and I can see your point about yet another sea change to our way of life.

Yet another moron that thinks theres such a think as a truely native Englander... The only true natives were the Native American Indians for example, or the Aborigonies of Australia... Oh and guess what... Our British Imperialistic history has been responsible for wipeing out their ways of life. Get an education!!!

On the world stage, and in the United States, he already is. His advantage is he's got most of the wealth. His nemesis - China - is flexing it's muscles and preparing to amend that income disparity, and it will happen before White Man realizes what's about to hit him!
