My impressions is that it's totally fine to refer to Angles and Saxons as "Anglo-Saxons". And maybe counting the Jutes? Do Jutes usually come in under Anglo Saxons?
But avoid terms like "Anglo Saxon character of the British Isles" or "White Anglo Saxon Protestant" or generally using it to mean anything that covers "Angles, Saxons, Jutes, Celts, Normans, Bretons, and generally any white people who have lived in the Great Britain for at least four generations."
I'm not sure British scholars need to worry too much about American racist terms, though. I mean, just because the racists have co-opted Vikings doesn't mean Scandinavian scholars can't write about Odin. And being careful about not using Anglo-Saxon to mean "white people from great Britain" is something any serious schoar should be doing, anyway.
