Was still around but obviously they are. Fittingly their party colour is orange.

Pauline Hanson was elected to the lower house back in the 90s, representing a rural electorate in SE Queensland. She was a train crash from the beginning. Hanson became famous for her racist maiden parliamentary speech. When a journalist asked if she was xenophobic her bewildered reply was, "Please explain". She didn't know what it meant.

We Aussies have had a lot of mileage out of that comment.
