The West is destroying itself.

The best player in the world in full health looksxset to be deported from a nation that could once pride itself on good sportsmanship to protect public health and order.

This is what A sense of shame could have prevented.

Instead mass psychosis rules.

Will the federal court be strong enough to overturn it?

A truly shameful day. Though most of the sheeep will lack the intelligence to see it, and will instead celebrate the decision.

all the tennis players should boycott...all the futball players should stop playing and boycott....

athletes need to step up and destroy the narrative.....

I wish American footballers actually had some balls....

8.45pm time mentioned is in about 3 minutes time:

14 Jan: The Age, Melbourne: Novak Djokovic visa saga LIVE updates: Immigration Minister cancels Serbian tennis star’s visa ahead of 2022 Australian Open campaign
By Tammy Mills
Court hearing to start at 8.45pm

not exactly the “ample time” the judge asked for!

11 Jan: Daily Mail UK: Australian Open is put on RED ALERT for violence in the stands if Novak Djokovic plays - amid calls for country to be STRIPPED of the tournament over its treatment of the tennis superstar
By KYLIE STEVENS and PADRAIG COLLINS
However, there is no time limit on the minister’s power to cancel the visa and can be done whenever he decides there is enough evidence that there is a ground to do so and if it’s in the public interest.

***Judge Anthony Kelly noted if Djokovic was to be deported through an order from Mr Hawke, he could be forbidden from returning to Australia for three years, though there would be discretion to allow him back in for next year’s Open.

***He told the court in no uncertain terms that if the government does consider this motion, ***he must be given ample notice to prepare for future proceedings.

just found a way to access more info at The Age newspaper:

8.27pm
Court hearing to start at 8.45pm
A directions hearing for Novak Djokovic’s legal challenge will take place at 8.45pm, the Federal Circuit Court says.

The court will broadcast the hearing from its YouTube channel after the court’s own stream crashed because so many people were watching the case on Monday.

Judge Anthony Kelly, who oversaw the initial quashing of the first cancellation, will preside over the hearing.

Judge Kelly is due to hear the case soon. I imagine he is annoyed at Mr. Hawke.

(The West is destroying itself.)

Yes the Wokeism and the homosexual agenda, along with the rest of the Godless are destroying the best human existence mankind has ever known.

Hope they enjoy the coming Antichrist and the 7-year tribulation. They’ve worked so hard to make it happen.

if I understood correctly, Djokovic lawyer Wood just said the Immigration Minister in this second visa cancellation has dropped all concern about the legality of Djokovic’s medical exemption or matters regarding Djokovic’s declaration form on his arrival. it is all now down to -

- the mere presence of Djokovic in Melbourne could incite anti-vax sentiment.

Immigration Minister’s lawyer seemed to say Djokovic was obliged to attend at Immigration office at 8am Saturday, from which time he would be detained and accompanied by 2 Border Force guards when he meets with his lawyers to prepare for final hearing.

unbelievable.
