A shocked passer-by watched while a drunk University of Cambridge student in a white bow tie and tails attempted to burn the banknote (left) in front of the homeless person (right). Video of the incident was seen by hundreds of students after it was shared on Snapchat. In the video the student struggles to light the note, while the film-maker panned to the homeless person. It is understood that the student was a member of the Cambridge University Conservative Association, who has since been expelled from the group.
