This is contradictory. Pikeys, by definition, are a community, not a race. So therefore cannot be racist.
It's just derogatory.

If I see anyone using the term pikey from today, or using racist dog-whistle tactics, I will ban them.

Actually, looking at the Cambridge definition. A race is someone who shares the same hysical characteristics, language or history.
So it's not black and white.

Discrimination because of race - Citizens Advice
What is race discrimination
Race discrimination is when you are treated unfairly because of your race, or because of the race of someone you are connected with, such as your partner.
‘Race’ includes colour, nationality, citizenship and ethnic or national origins.
If race discrimination takes place in any of the following situations it is illegal and you may be able to take action about it:
employment and training
education
when providing goods and services, for example, banking, entertainment and transport
housing
any of the activities carried out by public authorities, such as the NHS, government departments, local authorities, the police and prisons
Race discrimination can be direct or indirect. It may also take the form of harassment or victimisation.
Race discrimination does not need to be deliberate. Someone may be discriminating against you without realising it or meaning to, but this might still count as discrimination.
