After House of Commons Speaker Anthony Rota announced he was stepping down on Tuesday amid international controversy over a parliamentary invitation to a Ukrainian war veteran who fought in a Nazi division in the Second World War, Conservative MP Melissa Lantsman criticized government house leader Karina Gould — whose ancestors were Jewish Holocaust survivors — for proposing to strike the moment from official records on Monday. “[Gould] tried to strike it from the historical record of this House as if it never happened. A descendant of Holocaust survivors distorting the Holocaust,” Lantsman claimed.
