'I don't really want to': Scott Morrison's attempts to shake hands in Cobargo rejected

The Australian prime minister, Scott Morrison, unsuccessfully goes to shake the hand of a firefighter in the Bega Valley township of Cobargo. 'I don’t really want to shake your hand,' the firefighter says. Morrison then picks up the man’s left hand, before retreating. 'How are you?' Morrison asks Zoe Salucci Mcdermott, who has her hands by her side. He then reaches out and takes her hand and starts shaking it. She says: 'I’m only shaking your hand if you give more funding to our RFS [Rural Fire Service]. So many people have lost their homes ... We need more help.'
