Of course it will not be invested in the age care

We just didn’t opted into private health cover in recent years. The majority of old age pensioners have voluntarily been paying into a private health funds, since leaving school and commencing work at 15 and 16 year olds, so many like my husband and myself that is approximately 60 years each, that is a hell of a lot of years that we eased the burden on the public health system. So I think we have more than paid our way for the last remaining years we have before we go on to the join the greater majority.

They could save probably 100s of billions if they cut back on just their travel expenses!!!

Senator, the rebate only applies to those earning an income. Retirees are not affected.

I would also like to know why they stopped naturopath rebates for the past 6 or so years 😒🤔 apparently some are now adding it back on Senator Malcolm Roberts

So, adding more private health fund citizens to an overburdened system, removing the rebate, many will have no choice but to let private health go.

😅🤣😅 maybe they should then - 'also' level out the differences in pricing of support cost for seniors to be the same as ndis participants. Follow through with the same principle.

My husband can no longer walk waiting on a hip replacement & has been informed it will be at LEAST another 18 months - 2 years before he’ll receive the operation. I’m blind in my right eye waiting on cataract surgery. Let’s just make the broken system & wait list longer why don’t we!

What stupid planet are these stupid people on. Unbelievable

People are currently waiting years to see a specialist in Public Health.

This is just to insure that the aged die a bit quicker

Just a thought - It seems that reducing the benefit from seniors (and particularly aged pensioners who are struggling with today's increased costs) is pushing more of those seniors on to the public health system - which is the responsibility of state and territory governments - so is it a sneaky way to get those state and territory governments to pay the penalty for federal changes to seniors health benefits? Are seniors victims of this staged war between federal and state governments?

Roberts doesn't understand the difference tween age and means and has offered the video as proof. Private patients have access to private facilities thus will not add to waiting lists. In effect less private patients in public systems will result in shorter waiting lists.

Why the age of 65 when retirement age is 67?

I call bs as to them spending more on older Australians you as a government are a joke for all Australians

Isnt it better to keep them out of aged care where they are only cash cows for the owners of the facilities

Maybe the government should better fund public healthcare instead of giving money to private insurance companies all round. 🤔

They say wage based, the pension isn't a very high wage

Why don't they ever abolish lifetime pensions, private office and chauffeured cars for politicians that leave office? I'm pretty sure that would save the tax payers millions, with the money to go where it's needed, like hospitals, aged care and emergency services!

What record investment in aged care?

Ditching the elderly who paid their taxes (unlawfully) all their working lives. Shameful.

Be interesting to see where and who it really goes to.

Socialist activities again

how much do private hospitals charge gross in a year in australia

Did you ask why private health insurance companies expect to continually raise premiums without offering extra services and payments?

Malcolm the MAN

Are you that chemtrail bro?

Who knew fossils could speak

The presumption of innocence is a court concept. It does not apply outside the court. Many administrative decisions which happen outside the court, and that are detrimental to the accused, are legal and don't offend the presumption.

BRS Valor has nothing to do with his arrest. Let us not confuse matters further.

If you decided to presume his innocence. Why then have you changed the plaque at all . That's having a bet both ways. He is innocent then leave it as it was.

16 years ago and every day here's in Australia we have shooting and knives stabbing and nothing is done only a witch hunt to discredit the soldier

Interpretive panel of course..thankyou Senator Roberts. Keep at it..

I won’t to know Who! Instructed the pm to diminish all the criteria for a “war crime” down to One point? “ He who has not walk in thee shoes! Be my judge!

The building extension is a complete waste of money. I say this as a returned serviceman and as a builder. It is a costly build where the money used would have been better to fund treatment for veterans. A copper roof and some of the finishes are opulence over heath of serving members and veterans

He should face court, but the case has nothing to do with the VC. If we can shun one soldier that won the VC just cos he was also a Socialist, without revoking his VC, then the same applies to BRS.

Thank you Senator Malcolm Roberts 🇦🇺 for update…..and why isn’t the Australian flag front and centre as this is Australia 🇦🇺…..

A presumption of innocence is NOT proof of innocence.

Another joke fron labor inspired representatives, bet they where at home cuddled up and safe

Looking for justice - without government interference etc

The man is an Australian Hero TREAT HIM THAT WAY

What a fking joke 🇦🇺💪

Thank you for this,

Innocent until proven guilty without doubt is how it should go.

Brilliant.

I was pleased to see the BRS display at the war memorial! 😁🙏😇🍀

What a shame it will be when it gets taken down if he is found guilty. I for one will be glad

Give it a rest.

As it should be

Great questions again Senator Roberts
