Norse of Another Colour

Thanks to the Norwegian minister for higher education, who has advised students not to cloud the sunlit intellectual uplands of Brexitannia with their queue-jumping, fee-paying presence, Her Majesty's Government now faces something of a dilemma. On the one hand, it is unclear whether the Norwegian minister for education is motivated by ingratitude for Winston Churchill's personal deliverance of her country from the Nazi yoke, or merely from a residual Viking malice against such defiant paragons of fighting Britishness as Ethelred the Unready. On the other hand, although Her Majesty's Government has been trying for some time to cleanse the nation's universities of filthy foreign students, it is also surprisingly unclear whether Scandinavians count as wogs.
