[Oxford University has been accused of hypocrisy over a donation linked to the family of former British fascist leader Oswald Mosley, the Daily Telegraph reports. The paper says the university accepted £6m from a charitable trust set up by Oswald Mosley's son and former Formula 1 executive Max. A senior Oxford professor who lost relatives in the Holocaust tells the paper he was "shocked" the donation was accepted.] |

[The Daily Telegraph continues its critical coverage of a donation by Max Mosley - of money inherited from his father, fascist leader Oswald Mosley - to Oxford University. Education Secretary Nadhim Zahawi has said Oxford should explain to Jewish students why it took the £6m and says anti-Semitism is a "present danger" at universities.] |
