This tbh.
The British Public are the least racist in Europe when its been studied.
You can make a case we're quite *xenophobic*, but that's actually really common for "High context" cultures like ours, and is frankly not as much of a moral issue as racism, since assimilationist monoculturalism is a legitimate view to hold on how society should be organized.
It's why the UK is fond of the notion of hong kongers coming over but went ballistic about Romanians and Bulgarians.
I would suggest the consensus in the UK is probably "Gatekept multiculturalism" where some cultures are deemed undesirable.
