Pauline Hanson has posted an update on social media about what she calls a “fact-finding” mission to the UK to find out what has gone “so wrong” with the country.
She sat down for an interview for the podcast of far-right British activist Tommy Robinson, whom she called a “brave man … who has always had the best interest of his nation at heart”.

Hanson also met Rupert Lowe, the leader of the far-right Restore UK party, who split from Nigel Farage’s Reform UK, who tweeted “we certainly share many of the same objectives”.
