What about pensioners?

-

DID anyone notice one glaring hole in the budget? A hole that is likely to cost the Coalition a lot of votes.

Pensioners, straight out pensioners and those with limited assets, were completely overlooked. They didn’t get a mention, didn’t get a dime directly from the huge spend.

Despite many having various degrees of memory loss, they may well remember next voting day that they were forgotten in last May’s huge budget.

Not even a wee tiddler to sweeten their lives.

Hope the treasurer doesn’t live to regret the oversight.

Time will tell. RAY HARCH, Toowoomba
