Exactly, Britain for the Britons! Anglo-Saxons out, and take your ugly Germanic language with you!

I don't think so. It was the fact that it was such a pointless act of vandalism that caused so much outrage.

Dude, stop fucking people about. The country was usurped about 1000 years ago by Frenchmen of Danish heritage and they rubbed the native Anglo-Saxon faces into the dirt. And those Anglo-Saxons had similarly usurped native Celtic peoples around 600 years before that. And let's not get into these Celtic people fighting Pictish people for control of proto-Scotland.

Trying to bundle all the UK's myriad historic ethnicities into a single "white british" category so you can other everyone else is nationalist bullshit.

And ultimately, we all came from Africa's rift valley. We are all immigrants in the UK. It is just a matter when.

I guess nationalism is pointless then? Why is it this sort of 'being proud of your people' thing is only bad when it applies to certain groups but not others despite equally violent histories?

Which are the indigenous ethnic groups experiencing dissolution?

White British is an ethnic umbrella recognised by the British government. In the last recorded statistics, the White British population in Britain had been reduced to 54% by births, and dropping significantly each year. A generation ago Britain was 90-95% White British. It's a staggering, utterly unprecedented rate of demographic change that historians will look back on with the same or greater significance as the Anglo-Saxon or Norman invasions.
