Liberal Senator Hollie Hughes says allowing pensioners to be eligible to work more hours before having their pension cut “is a great idea”.

“I’d like to see people on the disability support pension to also be able to earn more money,” she told Sky News host Rowan Dean.

“I think we do need to get creative … it’s about looking forwards, but I do think it’s a great idea and it’s something we should look at.”

hollieahughes You are on 4 Corners now and appearing silly as a vaper.

Back to Howard's 'work till you drop' policy

hollieahughes If only you lot had been in power for 9 years and could have done that

you should hear what pensioners say about hollie hughes the muppet that she is

So you did nothing for 9 years and come up with this.

Good idea but a heart attack on the job you won't get an ambulance in Melbourne.......Risky.

Sure! Let's see if someone will employ my 83 year old Mum with dementia. This is no way to pull pensioners above the poverty line. Thank you Hollie. The more you open your mouth, the longer the LNP will be out in the cold.

Then she should have proposed it sometime during that past 9 yrs instead of working towards moving pensioners onto the Indu card!

So why didn’t the LNP do it in their 9 years in government?

hollieahughes Nine frickin painful years…Remember that? You and Spud deserve each other.

hollieahughes So why didn’t the LNP do this over the past 11 years? Seriously…

When it's smoko time at work, would the pensioners have a cigarette or vape hollieahughes? auspol HollieHughes

hollieahughes As a former deputy principal of one of the Catholic schools attended by Hollie Hughes, I am appalled by her hard-right views on a wide range of issues, including global heating, Big Tobacco and pervasive 'Marxism' in the ranks of Australia's teaching workforce. It's unalloyed BS.

hollieahughes well done hollie. (re: 4 corners programme)👊🙏😎

hollieahughes They'd have to be kept alive before they can be eligible for anything first.. RoyalCommission Covid19

hollieahughes

Great because Hollie had no idea how to govern

Whover was in government over the past 8 years should have done it then.

lol HollieHughes She's a tap short of a washer

The frail pensioners who worked hard all their lives paying taxes aren't quite to keen!!

Better the oldies than the young. The oldies have actual work experience.

They should get MORE pension if they take up a job - more “points”- encourages mobility, engagement and health of the mature community.
