They lied about it. They misrepresented anecdotes, cherry-picked bad behaviour from unrepresentative individuals and whipped up a moral panic about a free speech crisis. The right invented McCarthyism: they invent whatever excuses they need

Men are extremely keen to explain to me that Britain *needs* a domestic steel production plant and doesn't necessarily *need* universities. Okay. Steel contributed about £1.7bn to the UK economy in 2024. Universities contributed more than £200bn.
