    Yeah you have an English parent and have every right to consider yourself English. Fair play.

    The implication being that if he didn't there would be some qualified & measurable difference between himself and the rest of the English; vis-a-vis your 'bloodline' crap.

    Imagine that. Me having the nerve to rightly consider someone English who is of at least 50% English heritage. Only in Britoon could that be considered controversial.

    What metric did you use to identity '50% English' heritage? I'm very interested in seeing what this quantified demarcator of Englishness is.

    You've already quoted my answer to that a few minutes ago. Are you confused or possibly drunk now?

    Oh I see, your metric in determining Englishness is nothing more then where you happen to be born; erm, a bit like Fury being born in England then :roll:

    No, the dog will grow up to be a horse though.
    Thanks for the philosophy.

    You are. Cause your assessment of what I said was literally the complete opposite of what I said.

    Hardly, the main determinant in him being English is because one of his parents is, and that same parent has no measurable factor of Englishness other that being born in England.

    Your 'bloodline' crap is so vacuous that you have to tear yourself into rhetorical pieces just to support it.
