    So you have used therms: "black British" and "has Jamaican blood" and that
    he moved out of Britain to Canada where he got another foreign citizenship ...
    by saying this how different you are from Poles who are saying exactly the same?

    The term ' British ' is to widely used to get a specific definition. It can apply to people born here, or people who lived 60 years in one country and only 10 over here.


    Wikipedia's definition is;

    The British (also known as Britons, informally Brits or Britishers) are citizens of the United Kingdom, of the Isle of Man, any of the Channel Islands, or of any of the British overseas territories, and their descendants.

    So what is you're definition of British?

    1 There is Ethnic British (those with British blood)
    2 There is Mixed British (those with foreign blood mixed with British blood)
    3 There is Native British (those who were born in Britain)
    4 There is British Citizen (those who have British citizenship)
    5 There is Foreign British (those who do not have citizenship)

    are any of these making sense to you?

    where ... the segregation of your social life or maybe going back to WW2?
    Just answer the simple question as simple as you are able to understand.

    Why are you arguing over Poles since you are using exactly
    the same language to describe '******s' in your country?

    What's British blood?

    Kinda like a British accent?

    You've listed 5 definitions of British. What do want me to do?
