8:48Now PlayingOne Nation leader Senator Pauline Hanson has faced dramatic disruptions during her highly anticipated debut address at the National Press Club in Canberra. The controversial politician's maiden speech to the press gallery was completely derailed when multiple protestors stormed the stage, brandishing a massive banner targeting her track record on workers' rights.
The security breach sent the room into chaos as the demonstrators unveiled a sign reading, "I opposed a pay rise for workers while I took a $100,000 pay rise for myself." Security personnel and organisers moved quickly to intercept the individuals, forcefully tearing down the banner and removing the interrupters from the venue.
Once order was restored, Senator Hanson delivered a fiery, wide-ranging speech that directly lashed out at her political opponents. She took aim at Federal Environment Minister Murray Watt, accusing the government of failing everyday Australians. The One Nation leader didn't hold back, using her platform to criticise mainstream media coverage, immigration policies, and the current economic direction of the nation.
This video features on-the-scene reporting from Federal Politics Reporter Amanda Copp, alongside the full footage of the stage invasion, Senator Hanson’s immediate reaction, and the most confrontational moments from her subsequent press conference.
