PwC aside, big four political donations are so back baby

This time last year, we marvelled at the chutzpah of PwC, getting flamed in parliament even as it prepared to host the Labor Party’s budget night dinner.

The optics were atrocious, and surely the last thing treasurer Jim Chalmers needed on his biggest night. Still, it took until the day before the event for PwC to quietly bow out, ceding its naming rights to Visa, which has retained them for this year’s $5000-a-head budget night event.
