#WATCH: One of the first High Commissioners to the Solomon Islands Trevor Sofield tried to approach the PM at an event in Northern Tasmania. The PM’s security detail prevented him from talking to Scott Morrison. @SBSNews #ausvotes
The PM was rushed away from the venue. You can see the man trying to talk to him and being physically prevented by the security detail.
Mr Sofield just happened to be at the dairy cafe that the PM was visiting in the seat of Lyons. He said the AFP “manhandled him” as he was trying to approach the PM.
He said “you’ve lost my vote this year, because of the way your government has mishandled the relationship with the South Pacific.”
