MELBOURNE - A 25-year-old woman threw an egg at Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison on the campaign trail ahead of the country’s May 18 election, and was arrested, New South Wales state police said.
Security guards swiftly pounced on the protester, who was wearing a beanie and casual clothes, and dragged her away. Morrison rubbed his head briefly after being grazed by the egg, which did not break, and then helped an elderly woman who was pushed to the floor in the scuffle, television images showed.“We will stand up to thuggery whether it’s these cowardly activists who have no respect for anyone, or militant unionists standing over small businesses and their employees on work sites,” Morrison tweeted after the incident.“This is appalling and disgraceful behavior,” he told reporters in Melbourne.
“You seem to have no respect for the truth or any concern about running down your fellow Australians. We would never support such behavior,” McManus said on social media.
