Vic hospitals told to ‘drastically cut back’ over budget issues as premier gets pay rise

Sky News host James Macpherson says Victoria’s Premier Jacinta Allan’s pay rise comes amid the premier telling hospitals to “drastically cut back” due to budget restraints. “Of course, she gets this pay rise at the same time she is telling Victorian hospitals they need to drastically cut back on their operations budget,” Mr Macpherson said. “Because, you know, the state just does not have enough money.”
