One Nation leader Pauline Hanson is calling for changes to Australia's superannuation rules. She says the system is too rigid and people under financial pressure or buying their first home should be allowed to access their retirement savings early. Hanson told News24 that many Australians are struggling with mortgages and deserve access to money they've earned through sacrificed wages. The Guardian reports this comes as premiers and the prime minister have agreed to allocate ten billion dollars toward Foundational Supports.
