Grabbing a woman's arm and making her shake his hand when she didnt want to do it, was NOT a good look, it's called assault .... If he had done it to me, I would have had him charged with assault. He has NO right to do this to anyone
He also did to one of firies, he got up and walked out in disgust, cant say I blame him
He needs to learn to keep his hands to himself

Maybe because he sold their mothers alcohol while they were pregnant.
Couple of maybes there, Myo, but no facts,
Just suppositions on either side.

Or maybe they were a tad cranky, 'cause some of them had lost their home, farm equipment, shedding etc etc or could it be that the lady who refused to shake Morrison's hand had just lost everything she owned, had escaped the fires with he 2 yr son, is 28 weeks pregnant and was extremely traumatised by everything that had happened. Could it be that they were feeling totally isolated and a little helpless and just needed/wanted the PM to care ( not stage a piccy promo ).
So she wanted him to care but refused to shake hands with him?
Icy you REALLY have NO idea what life is like in the bush when everything around you is on fire ..... Actually you have no idea re country people at all.
Maybe so. But I care.

About ScoMo's feelings? The man's a failed advertising exec and a politician. He has skin a rhino would covet.

No you idiot. She wanted him to LISTEN
Listening doesn't fit into the 30 second 6 o'clock news bite.

Whilst it might not be fake news, it's certainly slanted. And not necessarily news.
Besides what do facts have to do with news being called fake? It's fake if the person shown in a bad light says it is. That's the Donald's interpretation, anyway, and if he didn't invent the term he certainly popularised it.

LOL!
Simple. If it's a fact, it's not fake.

if they had've said who he was and that they knew him, instead of pretending that he was just a local calling in... it wouldn't look so bad
I guess they were trying to drum up some support for Morrison.... it worked for some
He was a local calling in, however you might like to spin it.
