Yes, I'm half immigrant. However, we can trace my father's family back to London in the 1400s so far and we're still going, but he doesn't have the urge to request we have a Jew on a coin. Until 50 or 60 years ago the working class of this country was 99.99% white British. How many people have we had depicted on coins who were around in the last 50-60 years? None.
