Performances from Clare O'Neil and Andrew Giles 'something from Barnum and Bailey' - Video

Cartoonist Mark Knight says his “send in the clowns” sketch was inspired by the failure of Home Affairs Minister Clare O’Neil and Immigration Minister Andrew Giles to take accountability following the released detainees debacle.

“Their performance is on par with something from Barnum and Bailey so let’s draw them as a couple of clowns who were coming in to hopefully cheer up this poor woman Mrs Simons who was so, allegedly, terribly assaulted,” Mr Knight told Sky News host Steve Price.

“But I don’t think they would cheer her up, sadly.”
