Reimburse International Students Of This Years Fees Due To COVID-19
It doesn't matter if a student is international or a resident of the Uk. All Students should be reimbursed their study fees as there as all international students have to pat their fees upfront.
It's not fair that national students who have access to students loans should be the only ones that are reimbursed. Give all international students their fees back as well.

If you have concerns about your university's arrangements for teaching and assessment you should raise these with your university or the Office for Students, which regulates the higher education sector.
