Pauline Lee Hanson (née Seccombe; born 27 May 1954) is an Australian politician and former leader of One Nation, a right-wing political party with a populist, conservative and anti-multiculturalism platform. In 2006, she was named by The Bulletin as one of the 100 most influential Australians of all time.Hanson was a City of Ipswich councillor in the mid-1990s. Following her disendorsement as the Liberal Party candidate for the federal seat of Oxley for the March 1996 election, she was elected as the independent member in that election. Her profile increased dramatically later that year when she gave her maiden parliamentary speech in which she criticised immigration and multiculturalism, government assistance to Aboriginals and political correctness, and called for a return to high-tariff protectionism.She co-founded One Nation in 1997, but lost her seat at the 1998 election and subsequently has made several unsuccessful attempts to be re-elected to both federal and state parliaments in Australia.

Quote
1
We must look after our own before lining the pockets of overseas countries and investors.
2
I do not believe that the colour of one's skin determines whether you are disadvantaged.
3
We have one of the highest interest rates in the world, and we owe more money per capita than any other country. All we need is a nail hole in the bottom of the boat and we're sunk.
4
I come here not as a polished politician but as a woman who has had her fair share of life's knocks.
5
Governments must give to all those who have hit life's hurdles the chance to rebuild and have a future.
6
I may be only a fish and chip shop lady, but some of these economists need to get their heads out of the textbooks and get a job in the real world. I would not even let one of them handle my grocery shopping.
7
A social problem is one that concerns the way in which people live together in one society. A racial problem is a problem which confronts two different races who live in two separate societies, even if those societies are side by side.
8
It is refreshing to be able to express my views without having to toe a party line. It has got me into trouble on the odd occasion, but I am not going to stop saying what I think.
9
In this financial year we will be spending at least $1.5 billion on foreign aid and we cannot be sure that this money will be properly spent, as corruption and mismanagement in many of the recipient countries are legend.
10
To survive in peace and harmony, united and strong, we must have one people, one nation, one flag.
11
The government must do all it can to help reduce interest rates for business.
12
The World Health Organisation has a lot of its medical experts sitting in Geneva while hospitals in Africa have no drugs and desperate patients are forced to seek medication on the black market.
13
We have lost all our big Australian industries and icons, including Qantas when it sold 25 % of its shares and a controlling interest to British Airways.
14
This nation is being divided into black and white, and the present system encourages this.
15
The majority of Aboriginals do not want handouts because they realise that welfare is killing them.
16
I will fight hard to keep my seat in this place, but that will depend on the people who sent me here.
17
My view on issues is based on common sense, and my experience as a mother of four children, as a sole parent, and as a businesswoman running a fish and chip shop.
18
We are regarded as a Third World country with First World living conditions.
19
We are in danger of being swamped by Muslims, who bear a culture and ideology that is incompatible with our own.
20
If politicians continue to promote separatism in Australia, they should not continue to hold their seats in this parliament. They are not truly representing all Australians, and I call on the people to throw them out.
