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

In an interview on Channel Ten's The Project, Parker said he had been told to leave RFS leading to the hashtag #IStandWithPaulParker trending in Australia

The Rural Fire Service is investigating claims that a volunteer firefighter who told the prime minister to "get fucked from Nelligen" in a viral news clip was "sacked'"by his local brigade.

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.
