Nearly thirty years on, Hanson's infamous maiden speech — warning that Australia was "being swamped by Asians" — still echoes through Australian political life.

But who was Pauline Hanson before she became a phenomenon, and what did she actually represent?

Was she a cause of a new kind of politics, or a symptom of one already forming?

Correction: This episode refers to the LNP. In the late 1990s, the two parties were in a coalition but hadn't formally merged and weren't yet known as the LNP. Pauline Hanson was pre-selected by the Liberal Party."
