Personally he should never have been allowed to get on a plane here based on the government rule of you needed to be vaccinated to come here, hell people weren’t allowed to come and see dying relatives under these rules yet somehow tennis Australia tells players they can come here under the herd mentality of covid...

Right or wrong the court has ruled so for me , I will never be ashamed to be an Aussie or ashamed of the government pushing the rules we have been told to live by.. you may not agree but I’m comfortable in where I live and the decisions made by the government in charge even tho I think it could have been handled better

The 2 medical panels appointed by Tennis Australia and the Victorian Government should have known to seek the final approval from the federal government

Gav, the final approval was given by the issuing of the visa by the feds, the two panels only looked at why he might be exempt under ATAGI (fed) guidelines.

If he was wrongly exempted from being vaxxed under those guidelines then fed processes should have picked it up before he was issued with a visa and got on a plane I would have thought.

Thank DL

That’s where my original comments came from (also a few beers)

The feds SHOULD have picked up on this before the plane hit the sky, not when it hit the ground

His management should have been aware as well, but with so many fingers in the pie, who knows what was the thoughts before he bordered the plane, in my opinion, he should have been allowed to stay and play, I know that’s against everyone else’s opinion around here and maybe by other posts on other threads this one will get removed too

As from what I can ascertain from friends, medical exemptions are few and far between for some unknown reason?? so it’s no wonder he didn’t get one

I could put some other links in this post that aren’t “anti vaccine”, they more put a different spin on things, but it seems they are unwelcome in any way shape or form so I’ll leave it at that

Has anyone actually read what the Feds were arguing in Court at the appeal? They weren't arguing that his vax status was a threat to Australians. No, they were arguing that his 'high profile' vax status was a threat to the message re our vax choices. In other words, dissent.
I don't know how to say this without offending our new overlords from Mountain View, CA. but that sucks.

At the end of the day the real issue is how failings in the visa issuing process are going to be looked at and addressed, the whole vax thing is just a symptom that brought it to the fore.

At the end of the day the real issue is how many of your supposed rights you have chosen to give up. At the end of the day the real issue is how pathetic our constitution actually is. It protects nothing. At the end of the day the real issue is how much influence the Big Tech mobs have over our lives. Even right here on AILRO.

Actually the only reason Google gives a stuff is because the advertisers who use their platform don't want to see it, so allowing it hurts their bottom line, so they alter their guidelines accordingly, so at the end of the day it's the advertisers you need to be ****ed off with

Australia has never had a bill of rights and any rights you think you've lost were only ever implied by tort and therefore easily removed when politically expedient

No one hates being told what to do more than I do generally speaking but I've learnt over the years that getting twisted up in knots over things you can not control does you little good....

Wise man once told me

He who angers you controls you.....

Trying to think here, but i honestly can't think of any rights i have given up. [emoji848]

As long as I still have the right to remain silent, particularly when faced with "Do these jeans make my bum look big?".
