Thanks for the response Oliver, basically the best version I've heard against me claiming indigenous-ness (indigenality...?) to England. It makes sense for the word not to mean much when there has been continuous historical migration to and from a country or region. Even claiming European indigenous-ness doesn't make much sense as yes we've had migrants from Africa, middle East and Asia since millenia so what would that really mean? It still irks my spectrum side that loves a strict definition so someone being in England and saying they're indigenous...to Samoa would feel weird to me but I could live with it
