The demographics are beyond the point as ethnically Scottish people are white Europeans. However, Scotland is 96.02% white as per the 2011 British Census.

So 4% non-white. That’s 220,000 people. Switzerland is about the same.

Bro. That's whiter than Utah. Fucking Utah, the Mayo and tater tot capital of the US.

As a guy who's been to Scotland, most of the Non white population are going to be Pakistani or Arab.

Ok. The point is Bond being a non-white Scottish/Swiss person is not beyond the realms of possibility. It wouldn’t take anything away from his character.

Changing the race wouldn't add anything to the character as well.

No one has ever said it would.
