Photographer Sean Davey has ripped into Scott Morrison on Facebook after snapping his visit to Cobargo yesterday.
Davey's impassioned post focused on a man named Mark Ayliffe, who is the captain of the Cobargo RFS brigade. He noted that Morrison's wife Jenny comforted Ayliffe with a hug during the visit,while the Prime Minister himself didn't.
"It's a lot to feel the embrace of another human in such times. It's a shame our Prime Minister has no idea how to do this," he wrote.
* This post was uploaded as a personal response to the Prime Minister's visit to Cobargo Rural Fire Service station....
"Six riot and public order four wheel drives preceded the Prime Minister. None of the PM's convoy had any water, food, snacks or anything for the RFS volunteers in Cobargo.
The photographer was also witness to the heartbreaking scenes at Steve Shipton's property, where the farmer had to shoot cattle which had been burned in the fire to put an end to their suffering.
Davey was so moved by the plight of the Shiptons and others in the community that he started a GoFundMe page, which he hopes will at least help Shipton out.
