[quote user="You can call me Betty"]Nomoss, is your comment addressed to me? If so, I don't see its connection to my post.[/quote]

Of course not. It isn't aimed at anyone in particular.

Just a request to people in general, including a couple on here, to please avoid referring to Britons who were born outside the UK as "immigrants" if they came to live in the UK from the colonies when they had every right to do so.

That is, before the government decided to remove UK citizenship, and their right to live there, from anyone not already in the UK.

EDIT: I don't think anyone here would refer to someone moving from, e.g. Scotland to England as an immigrant.................

Oh but they do, they call Andy Murray Scottish when he loses a tennis match but English or maybe British when he wins[:P]

That's not quite the same as calling him an immigrant.

I have relatives in Scotland and I can assure you that some (a few perhaps) do talk of English immigrants.
