Leaked texts from Oxford Union head who celebrated Charlie Kirk’s death reveal ‘hate’ motive behind seeking prestigious post

The controversial president-elect of the Oxford Union — the world’s most prestigious debate club — once endorsed the claim that Queen Elizabeth perpetuated “genocide” and said he “hates” the famed organization he now leads, texts obtained by The Post reveal.

George Abaraonye, an Oxford University student who became infamous after after the two debated, claimed in leaked WhatsApp text messages that he only sought the presidency of the vaunted Oxford Union because of “hate.”

“If u hate it then you should run for the presidency!!!!” one Oxford student wrote in a group WhatsApp chat with members of the debating society, which was founded in 1823.

“Real lol that’s what I did,” answered Abaraonye, 20, who was elected in June.

In another message from the chat which included from Oxford, Trinity College, and Keble College, Abaraonye endorsed the idea that Queen Elizabeth was a perpetrator of “genocide and famine.”

“Bro low-key the day before the Queen died I did a massive post about her being implicit in genocide and famine and just a big thing about imperialism,” one person wrote in the chat.

“And then when she died so many people got angry at me because they thought that I somehow killed the queen because of bad vibes,” the Oxford student continued, referencing the monarch’s September 2022 death.

“Based,” Abaraonye said in response to the tasteless message, using slang for unapologetic approval.

The leftist also expressed an antipathy for “white establishments.”

“But I don’t frequent white establishments so I don’t have firsthand experience,” he wrote regarding “Indie Fridays,” a monthly concert series at Oxford University.

The Englishman also had harsh words for the French.

“? [sic] french in france are literal devil spawn,” he wrote, adding, “except Marseille.”

The revelatory texts come as alumni of the Oxford Union are set to descend on London this weekend — some coming as far away as Hong Kong — in a bid to vote Abaraonye out of office, The Telegraph reported this week.

The institution, which is comprised of students from a variety of colleges and universities and boasts famous alumni like former British Prime Ministers Tony Blair and David Cameron, sent out a motion of no-confidence notice to “Life Members” on Monday inviting all former and current members to vote.

Moosa Harraj, the current head of the Oxford Union, was the first signature listed on the petition in support of a reprimand, the outlet reported — as president-elect Abaraonye has not stepped down from the position.

The no-confidence vote and alumni outrage was inspired by Abaraonye’s callous and hateful comments on the Sept. 10 murder of conservative activist Kirk.

“Charlie Kirk got shot, let’s f–king go,” Abaraonye wrote on a WhatsApp group chain the day Kirk was killed.

“Charlie Kirk got shot loool,” the president-elect also wrote in another social media message.

The ghoulish celebration came after Abaraonye and Kirk debated face-to-face at the Oxford Union in May, during which Kirk lauded the college student for his “good faith” questions.

The Oxford Union, which is comprised of students from several prestigious universities, claimed to be poised to punish the president-elect after those private Kirk comments became public, but defended Abaraonye, who has so far continued in his role.

“We emphasize that these are his personal views and not those of the Union, nor do they represent the values of our institution,” the group said in a statement on social media condemning the remarks.

The vote of no confidence is scheduled for Saturday and will take place from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. GMT in the Oxford Union building.
