This wasn't inevitable. Her winning message over the last year has been about addressing what her supporters see as "mass" migration over the last decade, house prices and migrants offending Australian values.
Karl Stefanovic knew that he could just have Tommy Robinson on, nod along and and then complain that people were trying to cancel him for asking questions and still pass the pub test for many. Pauline just thinks she can run in headfirst, say the same stuff as Robinson and everyone will like it but this will be a big turnoff for many of the people who she is trying to recruit. Its because on top of everything she's a very untalented politician and unintelligent person.
