This is the shocking moment Warwick University Tory students allegedly dance to a Nazi song at an annual black-tie dinner.
During Warwick University Conservative Association's (UWCA) 'chairman's dinner' last month,a member reportedly asked the DJ to play Erika,which was composed by a troop leader in the Nazi Party's paramilitary wing called Herms Niel in 1938.
The song has since been reclaimed by white supremacists like Thomas Sewell,the founder of the National Socialist Network,who has connections to the Christchurch mosque attacker.
Footage of the dinner shows students dancing and laughing along to the song until one member tells the cameraperson to stop filming.
Members of the association allegedly went on to shout 'Kill the Hughs' - seemingly replacing the word Jews with the first name of their former chairman Hugh Herring - as well as saying 'Heil the chairman',according to the Times.

They added that they are expecting 'swift and decisive' action by the university over the incident.
This comes as cases of antisemitism are rising on UK campuses amid the Israel-Hamas war.
Just last month Jewish professors and students revealed the shocking extent of anti-Semitism at Oxford University,with more than 70 incidents in eight months.
A dossier presented to the Vice Chancellor details numerous bullying allegations,including one student being insulted over their 'Jewish nose'.
Meanwhile,attendees at a vigil for hostages of Hamas were branded 'kid murderers' and one academic supervisor is said to have told his student: 'Israel is a terrorist state.'
Complaints have been ignored,with some advised to simply 'leave Oxford' if they felt uncomfortable.
A letter accompanying the dossier says: 'We have felt isolated,unsafe,targeted,stressed,disappointed,angry and hopeless. Many of us have faced all manners of anti-Semitic slurs.'
One Jewish professor,who spoke to the Mail anonymously,said: 'What was a hate-on-Israel movement has become a hate-on-Jew movement. A lot of students and lecturers feel very hurt – they have left or suspended their studies.'
The letter,which has not been signed because its authors are worried about their security,was the result of 'a series of meetings and conversations we have held with dozens of Jewish and Israeli people at Oxford'.
The letter describes a 'hostile environment' for anyone who believes in the right of Israel to exist with the university 'overflowing' with messages about plans to 'globalise the intifada and eliminate Israel's existence'.
'Oxford's administration would be unlikely to turn a blind eye to faculty members who spoke about other minorities in such terms,' it added.
The other 72 incidents of anti-Semitism included a professor telling students the October 7 massacre was 'justified' while another claimed it was planned by Israel.
