Of course its ethnic,. Ethnic means a group of people related or linked in some way, by Nationality or region..or skin colour. I think Brits fall into that somehow.
I didn't want to overkill the post with pure British goodness

"You have so much, but you gave us so little," the children complained.
"There is no difference whether you have a basketful or a small piece. They all taste the same," Hodja remarked.
