Sounds like this is more about your views than your mother's.

"my people"? Who are your people?

The British people. Are you denying the existence of my people?

Yup. Do you mean the...

Celts or Picts?
Romans?
Angles? Saxons?
Viking?
Normans?

Which particular group of invaders are your Brit(ish). Such a good word for it isn't it... Brit-ish. All of "your people" are almost, but not quite, Brits.

Look at history. The French Canadians are distinct from the British Canadians, the Portuguese in Brazil are distinct from the natives and Africans, the Afrikaner are distinct from the African tribes. People form their own nations in other lands, this is the reality. People hold to their own nation and people. Nothing you or I can do about this, nothing the British state can do about it. So better to just accept it, but in doing that, it means two options. We have a multi-racial/multi-cultural/multi-nation area which will break apart into massive violence then the state loses control. Or the other option is the state over a generation reverses its current policy, and all those not-British people return to their own nation.

I must also add that it is highly offensive for not-British people to claim they are British, like my people are distinct and don't exist.

Wow just wow.. I can see now that you are just racist and if you think 'your' british people are so pure maybe have a look further than 100 years and see that this british you are talking about is a mixture of a number of different types of people.

Irish?

Also, what do "jews" have to do with "ethnicity"/"ancestry"?

And on that basis, what about atheists?

All sounds a bit "first they came for the..."

Many Jewish people consider being Jewish an ethnicity, not a mere religion. There are many atheists who identify as Jewish.

What I noticed from your responses is that you don’t know the history of England. This discussion simply doesn’t work if you look way back in the past.

Not when they talk about Afrikaaners vs indingenous africans. They are talking about their view of Brit(ish) ethnicity.

After seeing this thread, I believe that maybe Brits themselves should leave.

The topic of this thread should be the worrying answer of your mother. "Relieved". Seriously? This is actually quite similar to Hitler's wish to completely eliminate everybody who wasn't of the Aryan super-race.

I, for one, am offended.

We live in the present, we don't live in the past. The truth is the British people and nations exist. You need to stop denying the existence of my people.
