got family friends that do medicine and apparently its a very common thing for any asian looking person doing medicine to be called a paki doctor. there was also this thing that then the queen was visiting the uni, all the coloured kid's ID badges didn't work and they weren't able to enter the buildings. Coincidence, idk, but unfortunately this racist **** happens will be present in any uni.

Wow you are right. It wasn't;t just the people of colour. They banned member of activist groups. The uni first put out not so clear statement.

"We had an event today which demanded the highest level of security and we had to minimise movement through buildings for security reasons. At times some of our buildings were not accessible."

When asked to clarify, they said no comment. Later they apologised. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-48874221

I guess it was all planned. Ban activists, sort of deny it happened. If there is pressure, apologise, to show fairness for prospective students. No implications for them. Can't believe this is happening in this century. Then this also happened in another incident.

I was in a north England uni, won't say which. In my friend's accommodation in common room, one girl said how the black people must have difficulty finding themselves in the dark because of the colour of skin.There was a black guy present that time. He said this is not funny and left the room. I don't know the girl's race.
