Erm no, say you were born in China whilst your parents were working there and you move back whilst your 5 weeks old... Are you Chinese then?

You can consider yourself non-Chinese, but legally you are Chinese.

Your parents would register you as a British citizen and they would allow you to travel on their British passport so no that's where your flaw is. "Non-Chinese" what the hell is that

You never specified from what country said parents were from, Sherlock.

And if this scenario was true, little Bobby would have to take a peek at his birth certificate, and it would specify clearly that he is Chinese.

Do I need to? Change British to Indonesian or Nigerian I don't care it doesn't make a difference. If you think that way then you're just ignorant

It actually comes down to personal choice. No ignorance about it.

No...... If you think your birth certificate defines where you're from, this isn't your argument anyway

So you're one of those people who says "I'm 10% Nigerian, 12% Chinese, 13% Native American, and 65% Canadian. But I'm born in England."

And how is my preference ignorant? That's like calling me "ignorant" because I prefer vanilla ice cream to chocolate.

If you were born in China, you are eligible for a Chinese passport and therefore can be Chinese. Your birth certificate CAN define your nationality if that is what you believe you are. It comes down to personal choice.

And I know it isn't 'my' argument. This is a public forum.

I wish for Arsenal to lose and Spurs/City to draw. With us winning, obviously. Would be good to already be 6 points ahead of United and 5 ahead of Spurs (who have a game in hand)

Obviously I don't want Man United to win, but ultimately, we're competing with Arsenal/Spurs this year, not United/City. So the more points Arsenal and Spurs drop, the better.
