One Nation leader Pauline Hanson wants a complete overhaul of the retirement system and flagged she could be convinced to support delaying the legislated increase in superannuation payments | JennieDuke

Senator Hanson said "our whole superannuation has been an absolute mess", but had not decided on a firm position over the superannuation guarantee as she was yet to speak to interest groups like the unions."It's really the lowest income workers doing it tough ... [and] have the cost of living rising," she said.

She warned those who reached retirement age were taking a lump sum out of their super, using it to pay down their mortgage or go on holiday and then claiming the age pension. A retiree's home is typically not counted as part of the the assets test."The whole scheme was set up to stop people going onto the pension, which we will not be able to afford in time to come."

The federal government is yet to release a 650-page report into the retirement sector, which looked at superannuation, pensions and voluntary savings.said his current position was the legislation to raise the super guarantee should not be changed.

JennieDuke Hanson doesnt think about what she says as the publicity she gets from it is the only way she can make the news. Ignore her rants as they are from an uneducated moron.

JennieDuke Why is this fraud still in the government

JennieDuke Australia's worst Australian

JennieDuke Your future in this nongs hands.

JennieDuke Perhaps she could usefully research the subject by retiring immediately?

JennieDuke Aaah

JennieDuke Too much power in the hands of an idiot. PaulineHansonOz

JennieDuke Superannuation as retirement $ has turned into the biggest con of the century. and those companies managing our super have left us w less profits w-ever a major event occurs.

JennieDuke Hanson...still talking in riddles...

JennieDuke When has she voted in the interests of the people?

JennieDuke 'An absolute mess' is a very apt description of her...

JennieDuke Pauline Hänsen, yeah nah & pass

JennieDuke Does she think she has that much influence? She’ll be gone next election, she’ll have a massive superannuation package to live on champagne and oysters for the rest of her useless life. She won’t care about her voters.

JennieDuke Finally an intellectual heavyweight to fix our retirements. 🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪

JennieDuke Perhaps, pollies opposing an increase in the super guarantee will look at their own lavish super arrangements and make sacrifices.

JennieDuke She will be hurting the workers of Australia who have been waiting years for an increase in super payments and they still vote for this ignoramus

JennieDuke I despair of politics in this country. Who in their right mind would vote forPauline Hanson?

JennieDuke Damn, they give our Parliament & Country a bad name, don't they?

JennieDuke Another one that needs booting out of our Parliament

JennieDuke This is what happens when fools are elected to Parliamant. She promotes as the 'battler's friend' but is happy to sell them down the river for no gain. She gets her 30 pieces of silver (MP's super). No REAL wage rises in 7 years now willing to see super cuts as well. An idiot!

JennieDuke So franking credits ok. Superannuation not ok. Got it.

JennieDuke What a horrid person she is.

JennieDuke Hanson IS an absolute mess. The agedcare system couldn't handle fish and chips every night! auspol

JennieDuke Hanson gets in on wage theft ?

JennieDuke Should all be disbanded and switched to a proper insurance scheme. It’s amazing that someone that doesn’t work and floated through their entire life gets the same as someone that worked.

JennieDuke Yeh, apparently she voted against making aged care homes - show where they spend their Govt money- how shameful!

JennieDuke Just trying to be relevant again!

JennieDuke What’s she shopping for now?

JennieDuke Has there ever been a headline starting with 'One Nation leader Pauline Hanson...' that ended with the thought 'you know, what a kind generous idea she just had. Well done'?

JennieDuke When Labor, the Greens, Centre Alliance and Jacqui Lambie supported a law forcing nursing homes to reveal staff and food budgets the Government voted against it and, with the help of Pauline Hanson, the reform was defeated. Hanson is a hypocrite.

JennieDuke Of course she’s going to follow ScoMo. Enemy of the worker

JennieDuke Who gives a fck what PaulineHansonOz wants.

JennieDuke Will that include her own extremely generous Super? Somehow I doubt it. The Senator is a fraud.

JennieDuke I had completely forgotten she wad in parliament. Thanks SMH for ruining my day.

JennieDuke Luckily Pauline doesn't have the power to do anything in parliament. Go sell some hats Pauline, you're not too far off from retirement yourself.

JennieDuke Good old liberal stooge Pauline, never met a battler she won't throw under the bus to benefit the rich

JennieDuke Thank you. But frankly, I'd rather take advice from my dog.

JennieDuke of course she could. She is evil
