Two decades after her first maiden speech rocked Australian politics, Pauline Hanson has returned to federal parliament with another polarising address. She's given her maiden speech in the Senate after winning a seat in July's federal poll. And much like her 1996 maiden speech when she was in the House of Representatives, she's aired controversial views on a range of issues, particularly on Islam...with Greens Senators walking out of the Senate chamber in protest during her speech.
