    So the rights and interests of the English people are protected by being a member of the EU?

    Are you serious..?

    The English lost a lot of their rights after 13 years of Labour. And being part of the EU.

    If it wasn’t for the EU and the millions of migrants from eastern Europe (and the cost of having them here..) we would be a lot better off.

    God forbit you loose your job or need to move country to get work!!

    Being Irish i cant give out about immigrants as the Irish have to be one of the most well travelled people on this planet.

    I didnt know it cost that much to be in the EU.

    The single currency was great on paper but clearly doesnt work.

    Fair trade and the protection of the rights and interests of the nationals of its Member States is a good thing though.

    just googled and got this

    Early inhabitants of Yorkshire were Celts, who formed two separate tribes, the Brigantes and the Parisii.

    therefore the brigantes were a celtic tribe – you now saying your celtic?

    The Brigantes were a Celtic tribe who in pre-Roman times controlled the largest section of what would become Northern England, and a significant part of the Midlands. Their kingdom is sometimes called Brigantia, and it was centred in what was later known as Yorkshire. Ptolemy lists the Brigantes also as a tribe in Ireland, where they could be found around Wexford, Kilkenny and Waterford[1] while another probably Celtic tribe named Brigantii is mentioned by Strabo as a sub-tribe of the Vindelici in the region of the Alps.

    Within Great Britain, the territory which the Brigantes inhabited was bordered by that of four other Celtic tribes: the Carvetii (to whom they may have been related) in the North-West, the Parisii to the East and, to the South, the Corieltauvi and the Cornovii. To the North was the territory of the Votadini, which straddled the present day border between England and Scotland.

    I had an interesting debate the other day about being “British”. I’m not British – I’m English – and wouldn’t represent Great Britain at anything. That sort of rules me out of the Olympics then. :roll:

    I’m afraid my bloodlines pre-date the English, my ancestors were the Brigantes, so I’m literally a Briton.

    Whether British is the same as Briton or not is semantics, Briton pre-dates the word British and English.

    hmm but if were going by blood lines they wouldnt most of us be Normans??
