@NormanLord In an 1869 publication, the term was contrasted with Anglo-Saxon as a more appropriate term for people of Irish and British descent worldwide:

"Anglo-Saxon," as applied to the modern British people, and Britannic race, I believe every impartial scholar will agree with me in thinking a gross misnomer. For if it can be shown that there is a large Celtic element even in the population of England itself, still more unquestionable is this, not only with regard to the populations the British Isles generally, but also with reference to the English-speaking peoples of America and Australasia. Even the English are rather Anglo-Celts than Anglo Saxons; and still more certainly is Anglo-Celtic a more accurate term than Anglo-Saxon, not only for that British nationality which includes the Scots, the Irish and the Welsh; but also for that Britannic race, chief elements in the formation of which have been Welsh, Scottish and Irish immigrants.

I'd say it's an accurate and fitting term for Oz alright yeah

2018-08-11 01:16:16 UTC  

And NZ, Canada etc

But unmixed English people (which is actually rarer than you'd think, most English families have Irish, Scots or Welsh somewhere) from England being Celtic, that's the sticking point

I would hesitate to call the people who wiped out the last redoubts of Celtic civilisation Celts

2018-08-11 01:21:41 UTC  

It strikes me as a term used to gloss over the very real distinctions between the English and the Celtic people's than it does anything else

@NormanLord you just said pure English are rare and most have scots/irish. Then wouldnt that make most people in the UK Anglo Celtic?
