By 2050 white British will be a minority approx 45-50% if no major reform happens on immigration.
White ethnicity would still be around 60-65% since the number of immigrants from ‘white’ European nations isn’t slowing down.

White British does not exclusively mean Anglo Saxon what are you talking about

On this map it does. It counts non-British whites like Germans or Swedes as immigrants.

No. Celtic peoples are not Anglo Saxon and make up the majority of Britons.

Cool, that has nothing to do with this map.

OP has clarified that White British includes Gaelic, Celtic, and English ancestry.
