One Nation to protect pensioners from Labor’s tax grab
MEDIA RELEASE
Senator Pauline Hanson has confirmed a One Nation Senate crossbench will block Bill Shorten’s new cruel plan to steal up to 30% from the incomes of over a million older Australians and pensioners.
“Mr Shorten’s plan is theft, it’s daylight robbery, it’s cruel and rude,” Senator Hanson said.
It’s no secret Labor is making a pitch for the youth vote and has made a conscious decision to throw older Australians under the bus.
“This trashy tax heist will pass the Senate over my dead body,” Senator Hanson coolly stated today.
One Nation believes that older Australians have worked hard and paid their fair share of taxes.
Ripping 30% from retiree incomes will relegate many older Australians to a life of poverty and desperation.
“It’s clear Bill Shorten and Labor are doing what they have always done, raised taxes on the most vulnerable to buy votes and sneak into government,”
“This time Labor’s plan won’t work, because we will make a pitch to the Australian people to elect One Nation as an insurance policy against Bill Shorten’s shifty dealings,” Senator Hanson said.
One Nation has a well stated goal of achieving balance of power status in the next Senate, an outcome that would buy the country insurance against a Shorten government.
The party is fielding two high profile Queenslanders with former Senator Malcolm Roberts and state leader Steve Dickson heading the party’s state Senate ticket.
“Our goal is to have two or three Senators elected from Queensland,” Mr Dickson said.
“If we have one or two senators elected from each State we can guard against shifty Shorten’s tax hit on vulnerable pensioners,” he said.
Just recently Pauline Hanson’s party announced a bold new policy of taxing multinationals who are currently paying little to no tax.
“If budget repair and gross pork barrelling payment is required, the major parties can always tax multinationals who don’t pay this country their fair share of corporate tax,” he said.
“Pauline recently put the call out to her supporter base for help to take multinationals on and force them to pay their fair share of tax. The response was overwhelming,”
“Everyday Aussies now realise that the major parties will always target the elderly for cash because multi-nationals fund the Labor and Liberal party’s personal coffers,” he said.
