Senior Labor frontbencher Tony Burke personally lobbied the government in support of a business visa for an Islamic extremist and hate preacher who advocated the execution of homosexuals and subjugation of women, but was later denied entry to Australia.
Mr Burke, a former immigration minister, made personal representations on behalf of Mohammed Rateb Abdalah Ali al-Nabulsi, whom Australian intelligence officials had declared a hate preacher and whose views on women in particular, an internal report claimed, would be “abhorrent” to most Australians.
The Australian has confirmed Mr Burke, the member for Watson in southwestern Sydney, wrote to the Australian embassy in Amman, Jordan, on July 21 last year claiming to be acting on behalf of The Voice of Islam radio station, which had invited Mr Nabulsi, a Syrian, to Australia as a guest speaker at a charity event and to do talkback radio shows.

It is understood Mr Burke’s office had called Immigration to inquire about the status of the man’s visa application before writing to the department.
Mr Burke’s intervention came ahead of a Labor and Greens- backed Senate inquiry into the so-called au pair scandal embroiling Home Affairs Minister Peter Dutton, which today will hear evidence from AFL chief Gillon McLachlan and Home Affairs secretary Michael Pezzullo
In November, Immigration told him he would be refused a visa under subsection 501 on the ground he failed the character test
tsk tsk.
