[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People in the UK literally attacked the residences of migrants, and the only speech being suppressed is anti-Zionist speech, especially when it seeks to hold the perpetrators of a genocide, including the UK government, accountable.[/quote]

A check of the BBC website confirms the above. There is a huge anti-migrant sentiment and endless complaints about illegal immigrants crossing the channel to the UK with fake asylum claims.

Though, to be fair, they also suppress Christians quoting the bible and preaching in public, but quoting the Quran and proselytizing for Islam is not suppressed. It is a very odd place just now. [/quote]

ALL true. The PO is misguided about politics in The UK. My DS has been at Oxford for four years and very much involved in politics and the Oxford Union. Free speech does not exist there as it does here and that should be of concern to US parents. You cannot say and do anything you like- you have to know the rules and what activities might get you put on lists and deported.  The immigration problem may not be discussed in PP’s views because the UK has lost that battle. Walk around London or Manchester and see. The economy is in serious ruin. Even if you wanted to stay after graduation (which you cannot because of visa issues), you don’t want to because of low pay, high costs. And socialized medicine is a nightmare.[/quote]

What activities do you think would get an international student deported?[/quote]

Simple: Google free speech reporting UK deportation [/quote]
