UK: Pro-Palestine students denied university access during Queen’s visit (Middle East Eye, link):
“Pro-Palestine students at one of the UK’s top universities have said they were denied university access over security concerns during a visit by the Queen on Tuesday.
Students at King’s College London said they were barred from attending classes and sitting exams because of their political activity, a claim which appears to be supported by comments made by a senior university official, who said that students were blacklisted based on CCTV footage.
Coming one day into Israeli Apartheid Week, a range of actions in support of the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement, the incident raises fresh questions about the increased securitisation of universities and tolerance of dissent on campus.”
