michelle gayle Michelle, I am white and English, 53. You are as English as I am and there isn't anybody (especially white) who isn't descended from immigrants. The Roman's who were stationed here 2000 years ago were from North Africa. We benefit culturally and as a nation from immigration

Millennial Woes whataboutery Neil Winnington michelle gayle Museum of London Also, there was even an African born roman emperor. There is a bust of him in the entrance to the British museum. The bust is carved from white marble, so people would naturally assume he was white.
