Scott Morrison 'eats breakfast' during Zoom meeting with Pacific leaders

Prime Minister Scott Morrison has been seen eating & drinking during a Zoom meeting with leaders from across the Pacific.

The PM appeared to take multiple bites of toasts - as well as drink from a cup - while other leaders spoke.

Some social media users claimed he was being disrespectful, including Journalist Lagipoiva Cherelle Jackson - who tweeted that the behaviour was "extremely rude in many Pacific cultures."

It all happened during the Pacific Island Forum, where leaders discussed issues like dealing with the COVID-19 Pandemic & climate change.

Was the PM being rude?
