Who is British?

A study of D.N.A. suggests that most british people are Anglo Saxon. While agreeing with that statement i must say that their statement "to be british is to be Anglo Saxon" is surely not true. The Anglo Saxons invaded Britain about 450AD we Celts had been living here peacefully for a thousand years before your lot come. So surely to be CELTIC is to be BRITISH.

That would make you CELTIC as anybody here before 1707AD was just a bit of this bit of that, Britain wasn't formed until May 1 1707

I'm descended from Vikings btw
