History tells us that we are a nation of immigrants. No escaping it.

We are a nation of immigrants.
Mainly Celts, Angles, Saxons, Vikings, Iberians and French.

Anything between 2,000 and 700 years ago.

Absolutely. It is a unique mix and something to be proud of.
We don't export armaments. The defense industry does. The defense industry like all industries is multinational.
So given there's been at least 700 years you would accept that a "British identity" (English, Scotish, Welsh, Northern Irish) has formed within that time.

Since then, many hundreds of thousands of Caribbean, Indian, Pakistani and Bengali people who have woven themselves into British life and become a valued part of it. Of course, they were vilified and assaulted by the xenophobes and racists at first.
Now it's the Eastern Europeans and refugees' turn.....
