The Oxford Union released a statement and they are very disturbed with the attacks on their president-elect after he cheered Charlie Kirk’s murder.
The Telegraph obtained Whatsapp messages from the Union’s president-elect George Abaraonye in which he wrote: “Charlie Kirk got shot, let’s fucking go.”
He wrote in another message: “Charlie Kirk got shot loool.”
The Oxford Union spent more words defending George Abaraonye in their latest press release than they did condemning his disgusting reaction to Charlie Kirk’s death.
They claim George is the victim of racism. George is the real victim here.
What's racist today? Today, criticising someone for celebrating Charlie Kirk's murder is racist. https://t.co/R4ZEO7esvR

The Union said that it did not have the powers to dismiss Abaraonye, but that his remarks were being treated with the “utmost seriousness”:
As Ben Kew reported earlier, since the scandal has unfolded, it has emerged that Abaraonye did not get school grades typically required to gain a place at Oxford University.
This means he is almost certainly the beneficiary of a Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) scheme intended to get more ethinic minorities into the prestigious institution.
Charlie Kirk embarrassed the young president-elect when he came to campus months ago. Kirk humiliated him in front of his peers.
