That's interesting. I found the British universities to be refreshingly egalitarian compared to other aspects of my life here in the UK. It's the reason I decided to pursue a career in academia to begin with—my opinions and quality of my work mattered more than where I come from.

Of course, I can only speak for my experience. As the OP notes, there are plenty of resources talking about prejudice against Eastern Europeans, much of which I was lucky to avoid.
