RFS denies sacking volunteer firefighter Paul Parker, who swore at Scott Morrison

Paul Parker told Channel Ten’s The Project on Sunday that he was chastised by the RFS for directing the expletive toward Scott Morrison and that he had been booted from the organisation, contrary to reports from the time that he had been stood down due to exhaustion.

“Another captain from another brigade within Batemans Bay came out and I asked him a question, I said: ‘What’s going on?’ And he said: ‘You’re finished because of your allegations and foul language against the prime minister of the country while representing the RFS.’ ”
