We are all descendants of immigrants somewhere along the line. The term 'English' comes from Angles, who were a warlike tribe from, surprisingly, Germany. As were the Saxons.

I'm not!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I can trace my history as far back as records go to Scotland! Scottish born and bred, as were my Father and Mother, Grandparents, Great Grandparents etc etc etc, My family were Proscribed of Land, Title and Deed due to Lawlessness and general misbehaviour during the attempted English occupation of Scotland and we are on record as supporting the cause!!
And I'm sure a few of my scottish brethren can join me on this claim!
Having said that..........I am an immigrant to Wales :doh:

My most humble apologies to our celtic brethren! :oops: No offence was intended.
In theory, I'm not really English as my forebears were on the winning side at the Battle of Hastings, fighting for some chap called William, The 'Person Who Was The Offspring of Unmarried Parents'.
So, am I French by descent? Seeing as the Normans were resettled Vikings, I suppose I could claim Scandinavian heritage.
Blimey, this immigration stuff is so complicated!
Now pass me the garlic, I have some frogs legs and snail foie gras to stuff down mon neck, sil vous plait, plume de ma tante, l'ecole du fromage, maintenant!
