Bullshit, of course  I am and I do, but I'm going to call absolute lies and false info out.

Opinions are not lies or false info tho, they are what people belive or think, if I say in my opinion a chinese person can never be british that is neither a lie or false information its just my opinion

And that is your opinion, and I've debated that fairly. But there comes a point in every controversial thread where reasonable debate goes out the window.

Thats going to happen when peoples opinions are challenged, you cant ask a question and then argue against every persons reply that doesnt align to your own, I have my opinions on what makes someone british they are not up for debate they are purely what I believe

Isn't that what this place is for, debate? Surely if you don't agree with an opinion you should challenge it? That's what's wrong with this place, too many people who have a different opinion won't voice it.

Is this place for debate, sometimes, it is in reality for far more than just debate, some people cant debate they hold what views they do and cant or dont want to express them, if I say eskimos cant be british Im not going to listen to or acknowledge some tirade about we all came from fckn africa

If folk want to be ignorant, that's their prerogative IMO.

It has nothing to do with ignorance, as I stated earlier its their genuinely held beliefs and opinions, my opinions will differ from yours and many other on here, I can live with that

Is it though, or is it their beliefs on an echo chamber where it's good to just go along with the flow and agree with the majority?

Again, there's no such thing as an English citizen you backwards twat! 

Try and gain ENGLISH citizenship and see how far that gets you.

I am a British citizen and also an Englishman, but according to your stupid logic, I can't possibly be English because I have Irish blood in me, just like Thompson has Scottish and Nigerian blood in his ancestry.

Whilst you're there I'd check your own bloodline cos being that thick you must have Mongol DNA somewhere. Lol

Did you feed the ducks during lesson time?

Oooh slow down, grebster lol.

I have more Irish and English blood in me, than Welsh.

But I was born in Wales.

So, am I Welsh British, Irish British, or English British?

Anyway, 'all my ducks are swimming in the water.'

Stoicism, humour, pride , arrogance, determination, tea, fish and chips, beer , engineering, quirks and characters, language and dialects, modesty , showing off, think there's a million things but we're different to any other nation I've been to , most notably by our social manners and humour I would say.
