What the hell are you on about.
"Native brit" does not identify a people the way "native american" does.
There is no entry in the dictionary for "native brit".
This is all I'm talking about.
Quit trolling.

"The English people are an ethnic group [...] native to England." [0]
"[White Brits] is an ethnicity classification used for the White population identifying as English..." [1]
The English are the native and indigenous ethnic group to England (London). White Brits are a category that includes the English.
QED.

OP was trying to talk about ethnic brits, and I think that was clear from the context. He was then rebuked for that.
The OP was me. I pointed out how DHH's uses the term "native brit" to mean "white person" even though that is not the meaning of "native", which means you were born somewhere.

Nowhere in his post does he mention "White person." He specifically mentions "native Brits." The only indigenous Brits native to the Britain are White Brits.
