Henriksson calls for debate about need to allow guns in Parliament

ANNA-MAJA HENRIKSSON, the outgoing chairperson of the Swedish People’s Party, has questioned the need for a rule that allows lawmakers to store firearms in the Parliament House.

“Previously I didn’t even known that it’s allowed to bring a gun into the Parliament,” she commented to Helsingin Sanomat on Tuesday. “We should now naturally debate whether it’s necessary to have a rule that allows you to [do so].”
