Wow, stupidity is like wildfire on here.
C'mon LM, no-one has said that or even implied it, have they?
You segregated British people in London to white British. You never did answer whether you consider non white British as British or whether you wanted to count them in with immigrants either.
The claims of 'I go back and it doesn't look like England/Britain' can only mean by people's colour in the eyes of the person saying it. How do you determine a British person just by looking at them? What else is visually different to make one think it no longer seems British? Clothing? Again, how can clothing tell you whether someone is British or not?
Easy to answer. White = British. It isn’t racist to associate being British with being white, we are a predominantly white nation after all.
It is if the purpose is to marginalize those who are not white.
Little different from arguing that humans are predominantly heterosexual in order to stigmatize those who aren't.

Some people are just going to have to accept that you can also have brown British and black British.
