not being difficult but the answer to this depends on how far back in time you want to go. I would imagine that very few of us now are descended from the original homo sapiens residents of this island...

The 2001 Census records ethnicity and found that 7.9% of the population were of an ethnic minority, if this helps. http://www.statistics.gov.uk/cci/nugget.asp?id=273

Why do you apologise for not being racist? Racism does'nt even enter into it, you are doing a project on art and design.............end of story.
