So what I gather from this discussion is that if you're not White British you're a foreigner?
Damn... all this time I've been lied to, apprently being Mixed, Black or Asian British isn't enough to be a proper Brit.

It’s about time we knocked this exclusionist crap on the head and just enjoy all the exciting things other cultures, nations and societies have to offer us.
Please don't use the delete button, think of the children.

I don't think the notion of Britishness is nonsense. It's just I don't think think it has anything to do with skin colour. Being British definitely has certain cultural elements - curry eating, football watching, beer drinking, to name the ones you picked out. It's inclusive and does change, but there is still something there.
That said, I would vote for London to become independent.

I always put my origin as African on these things, it doesn't say how far back you should go, so I play it safe.

@jellyhead Of course. Every group, every race, every religion and every culture has its idiots. Just a shame that some of ours are running the country.

Let us not kid ourselves that we're all living side by side. Surely the question is whether the person involved feels British? They're really the ones who can decide (passport aside).
@FWB Those things I mentioned are hardly exclusive to the British nor, as I pointed out, particularly British in origin. We've adopted them and made them our own, certainly, but they're imports like all the immigrants. If people saw it from that point of view they may worry less maybe.

The real issue, for me, is the concept of statehood.

I think we're all technically African if you go back far enough.
Sorry Lexx.

Oh shit, but then iirc a similar number doesn't believe in evolution.
