Australia's largest migrant community organisation has called on the federal government to stop two MPs from an extremist political party in Greece from visiting the country next month.
Golden Dawn, Greece's third largest political party, has been criticised in Europe and internationally, for its use of Nazi-like imagery and statements from its leaders denying the Holocaust.
The political party's Australian branch says two Golden Dawn MPs with seats in the European parliament, Eleftherios Synadinos and Georgios Epitideios plan to visit Australia in October.
