‘Invitation to the Debt Gala’: Mark Knight uses Vic Budget to ridicule Pallas and Allan

Cartoonist Mark Knight blames a mistaken invitation to the “Debt Gala” for why Victoria’s Premier Jacinta Allan and Treasurer Tim Pallas turned up to the “glamorous” Met Gala in a newspaper sketch. “I thought well why wouldn’t our Treasurer and our Premier be in there because they are doing such a wonderful job,” he told Sky News host Steve Price. “The only trouble was, their invitation was to the Debt Gala not to the Met Gala and they were politely refused entry.”
