A Tory student group has apologised after leaked footage showed them dancing to a Nazi marching song.
The Warwick University Conservative Association asked the DJ at a gathering following their annual “chairman’s dinner” to play Erika, a song composed in 1938 by Nazi soldier Herms Niel.
In a leaked video published by The Times, students can be seen dancing and laughing to the song before one member spots the camera and says: “Don’t film!”
The students are also accused of chanting “Kill the Hughs” – substituting the word “Jews” for the name of their outgoing association chairman Hugh Herring.
Reports suggest they also said: “Heil the chairman”.
The group has since apologised, claiming they were “unaware of the origins and connotations of the song".
Chinny reckon.
That song is a big meme in edgelord communities at the moment so yeah zero chance they didn’t know
It’s not exactly Agadoo!

“You’re not supposed to say that Darrell, you know you’re not supposed to say that”
While I think it is sus, Once saw a documentary on the battle and occupation of Narvik that used a germam march for “allied victory” (it was “unser Rommel”) The strange thing was that this march was used as a melody for a Norwegian nazi propaganda song.
More future Reform candidates there.
And the Award for Least Hateful Tory Student group goes to…
Lol at any students going to chairman’s dinners. Fucking dorks
I forgot to add, it’s clearly Labour that had the anti-Semitism problem…
Wild. UK folks have people who cosplay as Nazis and have the apologize.
Here in the States, we give them government platforms and call it free speech. Some even march in the streets unafraid.

Only following the example set by the Royal Family.

We do have our own Nazi problem, they killed an MP. However, most of the prominent groups are now banned.
