The speaker of the house is the defacto boss of the parliament and that’s who invited the nazi. Even if they knew the history of everyone who enters the building, the PM couldn’t have prevented the speaker from inviting this guy. Had ANYONE known this guy’s history, this wouldn’t have happened.
This is true, the speaker is by all accounts a professional and well respected man with an impeccable, non partisan service history who made one of the most gigantic individual fuck ups in our patliaments history. If anyone had known beforehand the speaker would not have let him speak.
so the conext is that they don’t do some basic research? pretty sure that’s worse than a single one time oopsie.
The PM isn’t a dictator with total control over who gets to invite people to Parliament
In fact it’s the opposite case here, the PM has neither control nor responsibility.
