I think the long-held opinion that the Angles, Saxons, and Jutes drove the native Britons to Wales, Cornwall, and southern Scotland was always a bit naive to begin with. I suspect that thinking was a product of 19th Century Anglo-Saxonism. Obviously the Anglo-Saxons merely established themselves as the ruling class. Much like the Franks in France and the Normans later in England's history.
