That’s pretty clearly not true, though the boundaries of that ethnicity will be perceived differently by different people.
“The English people are a nation and an ethnic group native to England who speak the English language, and share a common history and culture. The English identity is of early medieval origin, when they were known in Old English as the Angelcynn ('family of the Angles').”
