What Christmas party is the government spokesperson referring to? Government pays for their employees Christmas party? Was this government money used or the Premier’s personal money?
Who party donation is this? The Premier private Christmas money or the Government money?
Please clarify as the Government statement is not clear.
Since the Premier is paid by the taxpayer, it’s the same. Tax payer money.
