The British people, of course, includes those British Nationals with English as a first language, who served in the British armed forces in World War Two. The UK government, needing workers to help fill post-war labour shortages and rebuild the economy, invited many British people to come to the metropole. Like all those dark skinned folk of the Windrush generation, and a good number of people who came across to the UK from India and Pakistan.
