Hasnain says:

Deputy PM went all holier than thou on two politicians who were recently found to be dual citizens, pushing for their resignation:

"Nah, I don't think it is. I think you just have got to do your homework and make sure you're not a citizen of two countries when you stand for parliament. That's basically it. Larissa said she believed that was not the case and I am sure that would be the outcome for Scott Ludlam. But unfortunately ignorance is not an excuse, you're in strife and as I said, there's nothing malicious about it, being sneaky, but they were outside what Section 44 explicitly says."

One month later, guess who suddenly finds out he's a dual citizen and pleads ignorance?
