Labor leader Bill Shorten has been left red-faced after an Adelaide woman in a wheelchair manhandled him into a kiss on the lips.
Margo Carey spotted the opposition leader as he was walking through the city streets to meet locals flanked by a large media pack.
She briefly gave him a talking-to about tram access for people with a disability, before grabbing and flinging him across her motorised wheelchair.
"Now come on! Give us a kiss and a cuddle for the cameras!" she bellowed, almost lifting Mr Shorten off the ground and onto her lap.
"Good on you Margo," a blushing Mr Shorten replied.
"I think they need you playing for Collingwood I reckon."
But that wasn't enough for Margo, and she gleefully demanded Mr Shorten give her a "proper kiss".
Mr Shorten appeared to be leaning in for a kiss on the cheek but found Margo's lips instead.
"Oh!" the Labor leader replied in shock as Margo grabbed his neck.
Later, asked why she demanded a kiss from Mr Shorten, the 49 year-old said: "Because I'm an attention seeker."
Mr Shorten's wife Chloe was unfazed by the encounter, taking it in good humour.
"I don't blame her!" she said in a statement.
"I'm thrilled that people are so happy to meet Bill."
