Please explain exactly what these mean to you.

How long does someone have to have been here to be English Born and Bred?
1 Generation? 5 Generations?

Do you have to be WHITE Anglo Saxon to be 100% English?

You have to be born in England to have been born in England.
As for bred - educated until the age of 6 at least, I would say.

If you are born and raised in England does that not make you English?

Where your parents or grandparents or great grandparents were born is irrelevant to a small extent - I don't feel particularly Scottish despite my Grandma hailing from north of the border.

I agree with you but this obviously causes problems for the arguments of some right wingers on here.

They can have a beef with illegal immigrants coming over here but if those immigrants have kids here then those kids are as English as me or you?

The problem is that people are being brought up in very closed communities in some cases, where they may aswell be asian/african/whatever. That means that they do remain largely non-english.

I'm quite the opposite, a wee brown baby with white, English parents, so I consider myself VERY english indeed. It's all about the way you're brough up IMO.

Shut up. You read too much into things. I didn't think "oooh, I'll drop that in, then the homies will think I'm down with the street slang boyyeee".

I'm 100% white, little bit of scots but basically English.

So if a pakistani family came over here illegally, then while here they had 12 kids, you would accept those 12 kids are just as English as you are and therefore have as much right to jobs/benefits etc?
