met a really racist person who was like all non-real british people should be deported and i said what makes someone real and he was like if both their families have been here since the 1700s and i said you know what. i can get behind deporting the king. and he didnt like that response.
If they can’t trace their family line back to early 1066, they aren’t real Brits.
They also have to be fluent in original English (Celtic). This Germanic originating crap they speak now was brought by immigrants.
Celtic? Dang bro, you going back to pre–Anglo-Saxons, even pre-Roman Britain!
Romans were occupiers too. I mean, what did the Romans ever do for them?
The aqueduct?
Who needs aquaducts when you can stand in a swamp for days?
Well, you could build a castle in that swamp…
Yes, the aqueduct. But other than the aqueduct, what have the Roman’s ever do for them?
:D
A couple of roads, a couple of baths, plus a million or two rabbits.
Yes, the Aqueducts, the roads, a couple of baths and a million or two rabbits. But besides that, what have the Romans ever done for us?
Not to speak of that Nouveau Riche gang coming from Rome.
Funnily enough even though I’m American. We traced our family tree back to 835 AD on one side of the family, and 1650 on the other side. Both sides of the family were here in the new world by 1640.
Am Australian. So wish I had EU grandparents so I could get.citizenship and leave this shithole.
I don’t know why you got the downvotes, maybe I’m missing something. If that’s true, that’s pretty impressive to have that far back in some type of documentation. My surname trail goes cold after going from the US back to Britain in the early 1700s.

Mountain Goats - Anglo Saxons
That song seems frustratingly confused. The Anglo-Saxons migrated to the British Isles after the Romans had departed. Caesar would have encountered the earlier Celtic Britons (who were also the ones sometimes believed to have painted themselves with woad).
