Well...they're smaller and have less ethnic groups and therefore they have evolved into a native population by now.

New Zealand has their brown people as their natives. Australia has aborigines and British descendants as their natives. Canada has their White europeans as their natives (there were none before them...and since they're such a tiny group of people, they have now grown into a native population)...

Argentina I have no idea about.

Simple.
In this instance, they would only be referred to as Indian if someone is trying to point them out in an otherwise homogenous crowd.

But then England is full of immigrants. It is not a very good strata to pick out of now is it?

You're not making sense. England comprises the vast majority of the UK's population, and since England has a lot of immigrants relative to the rest of the UK, our views and opinions will be slightly different, but still typical of the UK, since England is the majority of the UK, and England's population share of the UK will only increase, since our population is increasing at a much faster rate (Scotland's has barely moved).

Well yes I am because the original population has been altered by a vast migration that has only taken place very recently. Go back 50 years and you will see a totally different England.

And again your population is only increasing due to immigration.

What I, and nei, and P London are saying, still stands. What you're posting is irrelevant and changes nothing.

No, that isn't true. I accept your opinion for what it is, but I don't agree with it. There is a difference.

But everyone knows and expects that. England is not a true depiction of what the UK is really like.
Minority groups live in Scotland and Wales, too. Of course the majority live in England but that doesn't change the fact that a second generation born Pakistani for example are British.

England comprises a large portion of the UK and England isn't full of immigrants.

PLondon just please stop it and accept that I am a white person from NI with little to no experience with immigrants, I honestly don't care because it doesn't affect me. I feel fine with immigrants as people, I don't judge them as I could be one in the future, I just feel we have too many and I don't like the way society is going. I don't wish to debate this any further because it never goes anywhere.
