The Labor Party is considering reducing the age pension eligibility age to 65, but trade experts say it should be as low as 60.

Press PLAY to hear Kane Tyler-Smith discuss why the pension age should be lowered for tradespeople

“There’s no way that they can do the physical job until their 60,” he said.
