"Rubbish, if Germans were black. prince charles would be a rasta and they'd all be limbo dancing under the Van Dycks."

If Germans were black Prince Charles would still be just as British as he is now as it wouldn't change the fact that the Queen's maternal family was thoroughly British and on her paternal side she can trace the British line back to the first millenium. It is absurd to claim she isn't British just because 'some' of her ancestors weren't. The nature of the beast is that royalty often married other royalty so obviously the lineage is cosmopolitan. That has always been so.
