I was mostly being kidding, I already said the way it probably should have been written in a different comment. Also just so you know, they are parentheses, not brackets. Brackets are these [bracket]

Both? The bit within the brackets is intended to provide more context of the person and also be a replacement if the sentence were read without the name?

would this not be saying that Scott Morrison's father was the ex prime minister?

Personally I would go with 'The father of ex-prime minister, Scott Morrison, was the head of...'

but what do I know, English be tough sometimes

Yeah I would have wrote it as “Scott Morrison’s father (the ex prime minister) was the head of…”

Edit: I’m dumb I thought Scott Morrison was the son of the prime minister lol. So, better way to write it would be “the father of ex prime minister Scott Morrison was blah blah”

If I was writing this sentence it would have been a conundrum whether to put the “‘s”after Morrison or minister. And, that’s fucked up
