Are you surprised? I am not at all. What point do you think you are making?

Another seriously puzzling comment! The last I looked with my eyes I had eyes to look with! I don’t have a “sole” purpose to be here. One of them is to point out nonsense, for which I am provide many opportunities with posts such as the above. You are the one trying to deny science. The science is crystal clear. Genes have no role in determining ethnicity. Not a hint of fudge involved. You are wrong. That the mix of ethnicities in our country might be expanding, at least temporarily, is true. That though doesn’t mean those ethnicities are defined by genetics. That’s what we are discussing! Not any pet conspiracy theories. Your definition of genetic science. Ethnicity is a blanket word introduced by you to fudge the topic.

Wisbech thinks that Genetics is Nazi witchcraft. Nope. Genetics is science, not witchcraft. It can be very useful in determining some issues but not who is English. That's entirely a cultural determination.

So as well as being sole arbiter of relevance, the reliability, bias and truth of news outlets, the veracity of personal experience, parliamentary, government and police procedure, genetics and the correct interpretation of everything you're also now deciding what everyone else might find interesting. Got it.
