I disagree. Oxbridge, LSE, Edinburgh, etc appear equally as susceptible. In fact in top London universities it seems to be worse - prestige attracts more international students.

I also agree in the sense that there are less prestigious universities that appear to operate as if they are almost Chinese/in China.

Both are major concerns I would have thought.

Source: Went to UCL, they have a bunch of made up degrees that only international students sign up for.

Is this statement based on your recent undergraduate experience or on something else?

I don't need to divulge personal information to make a point. See comment below. I think it is pretty apparent to anyone with any interactions with universities in the U.K. and in other countries. The fact that it is now a geopolitical tool for China is pretty concerning.
