Nope. Pure British as far the records go. Potentially inbred but not an immigrant! <cheers>

Pure British, i'm sure you are. How many times has ol Blighty been invaded again? Oh and the language, is a major mix of French and German. You go and be proud of being British and having Curry as the number one dish <ok>

On my travels I have been told more than once by other Europeans that British food is boring, to which I reply "haven't you had a curry?". #proudtobebritish

And English is a good old mix of words from everywhere, we take words from all sorts of languages! That's how languages evolve. One thing I've really taken from this trip I'm on is how much people from round the world appreciate the English language. I've had loads of people say without English everything would be so much more difficult for them and say they are really thankful for English! That made me feel quite proud to be British.

No-one can deny the history of Britain and the amount of invasions in the last couple of thousand years though lol
 
There's no such thing as 'pure British' genetically speaking.

Celts, Picts, Vikings, Romans, Normans and multiple Germanic tribes make up the majority of the pre 20th Century British.
 
So on a scale of 1-10, how corrupt do we think the officials will be in the Brazil-Colombia game? With fair reffing, there is no way Brazil should be able to beat this Colombian team.

I'm still assuming they're trying to fix a Brazil v Argentina final, hence those 2 teams getting some very favourable refereeing decisions
