Is there 50 million English here now? I would doubt it.

A lot have left/are leaving.

A lot of "English" are like me, made up of all sorts really. (I still consider myself English though, seeing as I was born here as were my parents). One of my grandparents even was 100% English. However, as I have Welsh and even a bit of Scots blood in me, I consider myself British more than anything. I bet there are a lot of that 50 million like that.

I think my point still applies! Ever heard of the expression about 'not seeing the wood for the trees'?

There are tens of times more non-Muslims living in England than the two million Muslims! There! That do you?

You've raised the matter of English ethnicity, not me! For me, it's a matter of attitude, not necessarily bloodline! :-)

Are there really 2 million Muslims in the UK? I didn't think the figure was that high...?

Is the House of Commons safe?

Actually he is from an elite central banker kind of dynasty of Russian origin.

Then we have Miliband, who is also an avid europhile.

Hitler’s invasion of Belgium in May 1940 as part of the Nazis’ Western Offensive split the Miliband family in half: Ralph and father Samuel fled to England, while Ralph's mother Renée and baby sister Nan stayed behind for the duration of the war. They were not reunited until 1950.[4]

So, these people are supposed to be elected to serve Britain’s interests. Do you really think they could care a less about a country they don’t even originate from?
