Prime Minister Anthony Albanese is under fire after admitting that a $6 million grant promised to the Marrickville Golf Club won’t be used to fix sewerage issues, despite previously telling the House of Representatives otherwise.

“The Prime Minister is in a deep hazard at the moment,” Willis said.
