The Australian Prime Minister is copping some flack after speaking at a domestic violence rally on Sunday. 

He was caught on camera asking the organiser whether she wanted him to speak or not, saying “I am the Prime Minister” before taking the microphone. 

He then proceeded to tell the crowd that he’d initially been asked not to speak, which the organiser said was a “flat-out lie”. 

Australia Correspondent Steve Price told Mike Hosking that he’d suggest the Prime Minister was under immense pressure. 

He said that his behaviour on the weekend was out of character and ridiculous.
