Some fascinating history at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fish_and_chips

(see also https://www.theguardian....oodanddrink.restaurants )

In other words, another triumph for multiculturalism! Maybe the self-styled "true brits" should stick to eating eels or something. At https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jellied_eels I find "The earliest known eel, pie and mash houses opened in London in the 18th century", so that's before the fish-and-chip "invasion".

And here's the full version without the text you've left out...

"The location of the first fish and chip shop is unclear. The earliest known shops were opened in London during the 1860s by Eastern European Jewish immigrant Joseph Malin,[11] and by John Lees in Mossley, Lancashire.[12][13] However, fried fish and chips had existed separately for at least 50 years prior to this, so the possibility that they had been combined at an earlier time cannot be ruled out."

Also, not relevant to multiculturalism. Jews who came to the UK tended to fully and successfully integrate into British society. The most famous case being Benjamin Disraeli who, possibly more than any other PM, promoted the idea of Britishness and was a patriot.

:)

"Don`t forget , the potato is not really British either . Originally from South America , it was introduced in 1586 by Sir Thomas Harriot from Virginia ."

I thought it was Sir Walter Raleigh (along with tobacco)?

So Jews might have introduced deep fried and battered fish to Britain! Perhaps the British left might consider showing their appreciation for this triumph of multiculturalism by toning down their antisemitism a bit then! Or perhaps it is just too tempting to fashionably virtue signal in Keffiyehs whilst waving someone else’s flag instead eh!

Fish and chips are bloody expensive now. Always used to be the budget takeaway option.

I like chip shop sausages on occasion, but a bit like how I like spam on occasion! They aren’t Britain’s finest quality sausages. But yes I reckon we do the best non cured bangers in the world, although the Germans deserve a shout out for the bratwurst….and their ability to include mention of sausages in an absurd amount of proverbs.
