This is prejudice and racist. I am not slimy.

The obsession with giving people labels and assuming identities and tribes such as 'Jewish' or 'English' is itself divisive and unhelpful.

My buddhist learning is to dis-identify with my own identities that i unconsciously follow as to how i should be as eg a woman or a white person . It is certainly not helpful to extend that identity to a group of people who have lived in the same area for a certain number of years (though all thoroughly genetically mixed- in the 1st ministers case and my own) as applying to me.

All culture, traditions, judgements, tribes and identities are unhelpful social and pyschological survival constructs of the ego.
