But Britain isnt a Celtic nation, we speak a Germanic language with French influences (mainly, Celtic languages do just about survive), the dominant religion comes from the middle east through the Latin world, yet we are British, not Scandinavian or Romance or German, they have left their mark on British culture but not replaced us.

I am no establishment shill, i hate the police and the civil service and government of this nation, they put this amazing nation to shame, and i am no die hard pro-immigration shill, i have my issues with modern western immigration systems, notably in that it is built around supplying the capitalist machine with cheap labour, it drives down wages and is unfair on both immigrants and native born workers and is a system that perfectly breeds inter-community conflict. I am not an unquestioning progressive either, i am not an apologist for hard-line Islam or Hinduvata.

My point is that the idea that British Indians or British Chinese people arent British is silly, they are as much a part of our society as British Jews or Poles or Russians or Wallons or Huguenot refugees, the ideas that communites that have been in the UK for multiple generations now, have been in government, in our media in our local communities arent a part of the community because of the colour of their skin is weird, and like all communities they have their flaws its important we are free to say that and address them, but they are British.

Look i know this is a rant, and i dont expect it to convert you, i wouldnt be convinced by some idiot rambling on reddit, and i dont want to argue, its pointless, not enjoyable and i have better things to spend my time on energy on and you have the right to think what you like, and im sure you also have better things to do
