Well duh, that makes him Algerian doesn't it?
Algerian but he's classed as a Briton due to him migrating here and gaining a British passport.

BANGKOK - Thai immigration police arrested a British national with 452 fake passports early Wednesday as he was about to board a flight to the Netherlands.
Mahieddine Daikh, 35, a British citizen who had migrated from Algeria, was arrested at Bangkok’s Don Muang International Airport before he was to board a China Airlines flight for the Netherlands, Police Major General Suwat Thamrongsrisakul said.
I wonder if I'm the only person that thinks that people who "assume" British nationallity should have their passports revoked and be made to return to their native homeland if they are found to be breaking the law in such a major way?
Okay so if I moved from here to somewhere like Iraq and lived there for seven years then that would suddenly make me Iraqi?

Of course not. Seeing as I was born in England then the only thing I can ever be is English
