'Troubling' footage appears to show some University of Warwick students singing a WW2 marching song.

The University of Warwick has called its students' actions "reprehensible" after video appeared to show some singing a Nazi marching song at an event held by the college's Conservative Association.

As dinner attendees dance while the music plays, shouts of "sehr gut" - German for "very good" - can be heard. “Glorification of the Nazis has no place in our society,” they said, adding “it is in no way acceptable and must be widely condemned”.UWCA told the BBC the song was requested by a lone member and was not part of the pre-planned music selection for the event.
