If they can they should if they want to and not lose there pension just like the government don’t they can have millions and still get a full pension

Great that you are helping out with this. But what a sad state of affairs for our country that we have to rely on seniors to go to work because so many of our younger citizens won't.

Can’t even get a pension if you own a rental for income And it’s not like you make much anyway

It's the transfer of knowledge that is more valuable than anything..we need more of this

Why cant farmers get pension?

Politicians get huge pensions and 15.5% superannuation benefits and they can go on to other jobs without any of their payouts being taxed, but politicians in the major parties think that pensioners in the public sector are asking too much

There's no incentive to work due to the tax you'll pay yet you need to work to keep up with the cost of living. The reality that working isn't everyone's idea of retirement is in itself very depressing. Excellent if you can get this happening.

Pensions shouldn’t be taxed at all

If only we can, struggling on the pension is so hard, with high rents cost of living and other bills we are living from week to week. 😢😢

Pensioners should be receiving enough money to retire.

Or maybe the people who work for 40 or 50 years should get the same pension as a politician who works for 8 years.

Politicians do it, so only fair public can too

They do this in Germany great idea

Fantastic idea. Working allows people to stay connected and it wards off loneliness. It brings people of all ages together. Every workplace needs a senior person…they are very valuable indeed.

I also think overtime should be tax free , any hours worked outside of your normal hours . This would free up money for people to spend and boost the economy ! This is one of the incentives Germany used after WW2 to encourage people to work harder and rebuild the country.

40k untaxed, still get pension. Same for centerlink. That will only just get people by

Yay You’ve got me Nurse of 50 yrs Lost my job through covid Forced to sell our property Working again at 69 years But it sure knocks our pension around As a couple it affects husband too So wrong

You have my vote

Absolutely ridiculous that pensioners cannot work as much as they choose. Living on the pension and paying Sydney rent is impossible. The tax paid on income earned would subsidise the pension paid to an individual......no brainer.

Senator Malcolm Roberts can you possibly make it that the politicians have the same rules as the rest of us when it comes to pensions etc.

It should be that pensioners dont need to work and the pension should be at least doubled fir REAL AUSTRALIANS and not those who have only been here less than 20yrs...they need to contribute....many have paid in to The Pension Plan that was worth Billions before it was stolen by Hawke and Keating..reinvented as centrelink like we are a burden on society when these political thieves STOLE OUR MONEY AND OWE US

I agree with this but it needs to be the same for everyone, all pensioners and everyone receiving Centrelink payments to provide better incentive to work, in fact everyone should be receiving a basic income to ensure no one is struggling anymore, it would give people more flexibility to live and work just as seniors are presented here to have the flexibility to live and work without losing the pension, I'm sure we can all agree given how much everyone is struggling now everyone deserves a break and not lose their payments while working.

stop deducting pensioner payments just because your spouse is working AND PAYING TAX. Pauline please stop the tax man stealing my pension from me because my wife works.

Oh yes, definitely got my vote

I have an income of just over £1100 a month and I’m taxed on that pathetic sum
