A media minder for Federal Opposition Leader Malcolm Turnbull has reportedly quit his job after being linked to an online bout of Liberal factional warfare.

The video parodies Liberal MP Alex Hawke by portraying him as an enraged Adolf Hitler, echoing a YouTube trend of subtitling Hitler biopic Downfall with fake translations.

Sydney Morning-Herald reporters say they have seen a chain of emails where Turnbull staffer Thomas Tudehope and Charles Perrottet, who works for Liberal MP David Clarke, admit they are connected to the video.

Mr Tudehope told the newspaper he was not involved in producing or disseminating the video.

But Mr Turnbull said today that his staffer had quit amid the controversy.

The clip, posted just over a week ago, makes reference to a factional split in the Liberal party's right wing.

"With Dutton gone and Turnbull on the way out I was suppossed [sic] to become the youngest ever PM!" one Hitler subtitle reads.

The split made headlines last month when Mr Hawke called police to attend a Young Liberals meeting, saying 40 people had tried to force their way into his office.

Mr Tudehope's resignation comes after it was revealed this week that the 26-year-old minder, employed in the Opposition Leader's office as an assistant for online media, had been writing posts on Twitter for the @turnbullmalcolm account.
