A university's Jewish society has slammed an "utterly abhorrent" video showing a numbers of students from Warwick University Conservative Association singing along to an apparent 'Nazi song'. The video shows members of the society singing and dancing along to 'Erika' - a song strongly associated with the Nazi German army - at a chairman's dinner event.The military song was frequently played during Nazi Party public events.
It said: "The University of Warwick Conservative Association wholeheartedly condemns the behaviour exhibited during this video and apologises for any offence that has been caused."We also reject any allegation that we are a ‘toxic society’ that ‘normalises racism’."Our members have consistently campaigned against anti-Semitism on campus, including campaigning to disaffiliate Warwick Student’s Union from the National Union of Students over its failure to deal with anti-Semitism.
