England is a nation that has existed for a thousand years. It's a disgrace that the elite are trying to replace it first with British and then European.

Scotland became a nation around the same time as England yet I don't see anyone declaring no such thing as Scottish.

One more point

I know you have a problem accepting that Northern Europeans are White. You also seem to have a problem people who are White and like it.

A bit sad really.

So your self loathing aside, there is no doubt that the question of Englishness becomes more complex when you introduce people of mixed race or nationality.

Cutting through all your bulls***, the simple fact is that the vast majority of people in Britain can trace their heritage back through thousands of years. Obviously, when Europe was one landmass, people could wander across it. Since that time our genetic make up has been changed, in small degrees by European invasions.
No significant change has occurred for 1500 years and that was relatively small. That is, until the last 30 years.

Now if you want to simply be perceived as 'English' you need to speak English, adopt English customs and culture, support English sports teams, refer to yourself as an Englishman, not adhere to religions or behaviour that is anti English or runs counter to our Christian based values.

Your ethnicity is not necessarily a factor, but it helps to be recognised as English if you look like an Englishman.

Some well known examples were not Northern European but were perceived as English. Some people not born in England have been considered English by parentage.

In the end, most English want to preserve the England they had and reject the schisms, backward alien religions, the crime, the violence and the endless nonsense about racial etiquette that mass immigration has brought us.

That is all far more significant than squabbling over what English means.

If you read again, you will see that I said Christian based.

I reject all religion.

However, one cannot simply ignore the cultural and moral influence that is the basis for much that is 'English'.

Like most humans, the English don't always practice what they or anyone else preaches.

Don't get the idea that I like all Englishmen. I avoid the fookers on holiday.

Compare and contrast the English football team with Every team from Eastern Europe. Our friends in the ex Soviet Union could be forgiven for mistaking the English team for the French team.

And of course the football team is a metaphor for the whole nation. All racism disappears when the good wee lad scores a goal.

English identity ? you are not English if you support a shyte team like Scotland. Nor if you support a successful team like Brazil. Since 1966, always the bridesmaid, but never the bride.

Like Tim Henman, waving the flag proudly. All the way to the Semi-finals.
