Novak Djokovic to be deported from Australia (still maybe)

[Michael Morris]

Australia cancels visa of world tennis No.1 Novak Djokovic and intends to deport him on Thursday, with his lawyers expected to appeal.

Earlier Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison said: "Any individual seeking to enter Australia must comply with our border requirements.

"He has to because if he's not vaccinated, he must provide acceptable proof that he cannot be vaccinated for medical reasons and to be able to access the same travel arrangements, as fully vaccinated travellers.

"So we await his presentation and what evidence he provides to support that. If that evidence is insufficient, then he won't be treated any different to anyone else and he'll be on the next plane home.

"There should be no special rules for Novak Djokovic at all, none whatsoever."

Lovely.
I'd love to see footage of him being refused and scuttling off with his tail between his legs.

Novax Djokovic is brilliant

There are some intresting quotes from him in the article below, if true ?? he does appear not to be a fan of the vaccine and believes in other ways to treat your body when it comes to medication??

Wasn't his visa application refused because they didn't tick the box that asks if the application includes a medical exemption? I don't think he got as far as having to prove what his exemption is.

His appeal may be thrown out of court

I wonder if the odd backhander would help his case?

Possibly, however his career could “be on the line” after this “set two”

Let him do his time in quarantine I say, his own fault contrary to reports of the balls up by the Victoria Government.
Lawyers winning again, its all a racquet.

His lawyers are arguing it's all a set up and he shouldn't be lobbed out apparently!

[Raymond Holt]

It's not like the Aussies to be so highly strung when it comes to immigration, but fair enough, they've set their baseline and aren't willing to let anyone slip through the net.

[goats]

Love to know why he is exempt from the vaccine? Surely you can’t put being stuck so far up one’s own arse on the form as a reasonable excuse?

While he's in quarantine, they'll be watching him like a Hawkeye

[The Bloop]

You can not be serious

Djokovic has been beaten - game, set and vax
