D WARDELL (Letters, February 10) talks about non-indigenous people in this country.
For thousands of years, these islands have been invaded and settled by outsiders including Angles, Saxons, Danes, Romans and Normans. I assume that I am descended from some of these settlers and so are many other people in this country.
So I do not know what is meant by non-indigenous - unless, of course, it means not white.
