    Anglo-Saxons were invaders, English are a mixture of Anglo-Saxon invaders and British Celts.

    I think there is a bigger picture to your question, that can be explained by noticing how the British really are a mixture of different peoples, essentially. By extension, such is the nature of the Anglosphere, no?

    And Scots are descended from Gaelic invaders at the same time, mixed with native Picts/Britons and also Anglo-Saxons.

    Are you talking about then or now? They were invaders (for the most part) then. Their descendants are citizens now. My guess is that you're talking about the present, but I almost always lose coin flips.

    What is generally not recognized is that Scots and Welsh are also mixed with Germanic invaders but English people have a bit more Germanic admixture on average.
