A MESSAGE FROM THE QUEEN

If we follow this route, which I did not start, we are going off at a tangent to the main issue. Of course the message is a fake it was not issued on Christmas Day the only day the Queen gives a message to the People. You do not need to fear the Queen but if you think Trump is character just wait to get a load of Prince Phil.

With regard to "Americans" I think Fred answers that one, a 5th generation here would still be classed as a "comer in". As for Native Americans being "removed" by other NA tribes what happened to them and how many of them now sit in congress etc

Brian.

 

The opening post is a joke. The responses were sarcasm. I don't know why I need to explain that.

As for Canadians and Americans, we're the same people under different flags. Kind of like the English and the Welsh, only with better dentists.

 

Are the Scottish not Brits?

(edit in red just for Fred) there's a bit or Ireland that's British too

 

Canucks are just Yanks who want The Queen on their coins & a crown on their cap badges.

 

If the reports on your referendum are even partially correct you guy's may soon no longer be European and the Scot's no longer Brit's.

 

there's a bit of Ireland that's British too...

Yeah...cough cough...The Aboriginals here don't realise plenty of people know the "British Invasion" thing didn't just happen to them...And Britain itself (will never ever ever be slaves) was invaded and controlled by the Italians by proxy...took them 500 years but they eventually booted them out...Now, what have the Romans ever done for us?

 

I haven't a clue what you are talking about.

 

The Poison Dwarf just likes threatening a new Scottish referendum every time the wind changes direction. People with more than two brain cells don't even listen to the idiot now.

 

Then were taken over by Saxons, Angles, Vikings, Normans, etc. Great Britain is as much a melting pot as the US.

 

Actually, not really-
"The Romans, Vikings and Normans may have ruled or invaded the British for hundreds of years, but they left barely a trace on our DNA, the first detailed study of the genetics of British people has revealed."

Have to agree with that Gordon...

 

"People living in southern and central England today typically share about 40% of their DNA with the French"

. Add those 40% to the French DNA in north America and you'll get quite a few cowboys with a beret .


A similar study was held in Holland some years ago and it came to the conclusion that the Dutch have more DNA in common with the English, than the English with the Scots.

 

but he also mentioned Angles and Saxons (left out the Jutes). How much different is the DNA from a Dane and a Jute from say 700AD?

 

And now we are talking linguistics, pour majesty.....

 

The French can't be trusted!


if Gandolf says it...........

 

That's probably because all northern Europeans share much the same DNA. The DNA itself doesn't change as you cross the channel. If a Dane impregnates an English woman, you aren't going to see much difference in the DNA. That English woman's family came from the same lineage as that later Dane.

 

Your guess is as good as mine, unfortunately.
