Well the state would disagree, on every form that requests ethnicity one of the options is White British. Head on a brick wall are you banging. Facts are not going to matter
Responsibility Deficit Disorder is a medical condition. Symptoms include inability to be corrected when wrong, false sense of superiority, desire to share personal info no else cares about, general hubris. It's a medical issue rather than pure arrogance. |

What would YOU call them then? British. Any further subdivision would depend on genuine differences. Male/ Female. Rich/Poor. Straight/Gay. English/Welsh/Scottish/N Irish. etc etc.

I recognise I am currently out on a limb but that has never concerned me if I can see something is wrong. I wager that in due time it will be seen as divisive and unnecessary and gradually dropped.

English/Welsh/Scottish/N Irish. etc etc. We know they are British, BUT, as per the UK State there are various 'sub-divisions'(as you call it), with White British being one of them. Whether you accept that or not doesn't matter, its what it is & all law abiding citizens of the UK, HAVE to abide with. You are irrelevant!
This operation, will make the 'Charge Of The Light Brigade' seem like a simple military exercise. |

You seem to think that skin pigment is the beginning and the end. 'Race' bring far more with it than colour, particularly in politics. you can identify many Civil Wars wherein the belligerents mostly have the same skin colour....to each other. the Former Yugoslavia the Congo Culture is probably more important than Colour. Which explains why UK African-Africans and Afro-Caribbeans do not always identify each other as comrades. And a white DUP politician identifies more readily with Rishi Sunak than Leo Varadkar. Identity & money politics also identifies the complete about-face from the Lefty BBC. Whenever they visit Ulster in July. All Union Flags, white people marching and not a peep from the beeb about all their usual identity b01lox. Its like travelling in a time-machine back to 1945.

Whether you accept that or not doesn't matter, its what it is & all law abiding citizens of the UK, HAVE to abide with. You are irrelevant! I am not sure it’s actually the law, but more a matter of convention. In many cases there is the option “or would you rather not say”. Nevertheless, I accept the conventions exist and am doing what I recommend anyone to do who disagrees with a law, or a convention. Which is to raise the issue and get it discussed. You might like to read what the law society has to say on the subject. My view being that I am not alone in seeing the problem and that the tide may be turning:-

Your response demonstrates the entire problem. Discussing issues consequent upon racial or cultural attitudes is perfectly reasonable and responsible. If that’s what is meant, say so. Using skin colour as a determinant is neither accurate or acceptable. People can have black skins but a huge number of different races and cultures. Same with white, brown and every other shade. There simply is no such group as “White British People”. You would include both of us in it, and we are as different as chalk and cheese. We need to drop such inaccurate terms. That is what we are. The official definition is 'White British'. Your kind wishes to diminish and deny our very existence as an ethnic group. You are the problem. You are the one who reduces talk of skin colour to pigment, no one else. We all seem to know what we are talking about when using convenient labels. You are just looking to obfuscate reality with your usual merry of round of drivel. You are becoming a complete waste of time.

It is a detail, nothing more. Tribalism, culture, history and social standing are the driving forces.
