Oxford University has been labelled an establishment of 'vast hypocrisy' by a former senior research fellow after it accepted a multi-million pound donation from the Mosley family.
The university and two Oxford colleges received charitable gifts totalling more than £12 million from a charitable fund up by the recently deceased Max Mosley which drew upon the vast fortune of his father Sir Oswald - the leader of the British Union of Fascists.
The establishment's acceptance of the charitable donations from a family renowned for its links to fascism and anti-Semitism has drawn ire from former professors, particularly in light of the university's recent willingness to comply with 'woke' demands from students.
Dr Lawrence Goldman, the former director of the Institute of Historical Research and senior dean of St Peter's college, accused the university of 'vast hypocrisy' and 'moral failure' for accepting the donations.
'The university has gone off the scale in wokery,' he said in reference to the university's efforts to 'decolonise' the curriculum.
'But they go ahead and take money from a fund established by proven and known fascists.
'There has been a total moral failure.'

'[St Peter's college] is taking funds from the most infamous fascist dynasty in the English-speaking world, the Mosley family,' he wrote.
The university took in a £6 million donation from the fund, while two Oxford colleges - St Peter's and Lady Margaret Hall - accepted £6.3 million between them.

Max Mosley, who passed away from cancer earlier this year aged 81, set up The Alexander Mosley Trust in the name of his son who died from an drug overdose in 2009.
But the much of the funds funnelled into the charitable foundation came from the estate of Sir Oswald Mosley, who married wife Diana Mitford in 1936 in Berlin at the home of Joseph Goebbels, the Nazi minister for propaganda.
Oswald's guest of honour? None other than Herr Adolf Hitler.
