I take your point but, I would argue that they should do what is best for the country's population rather than what the population wants. A Gallup poll found that a small majority of the UK population want to see the death penalty reinstated. I would argue that going with the majority opinion on this topic would be a disastrous decision.

 

Letting a wank into the country and reinstating the death penalty are nowhere near the same and it's in no way harmful to the population to tell Djokovic to eff off

Yes it’s important that Govts listen and respect the majority when they ask them isn’t it ? Brexit ? Independence vote 2014 ? Or only when it suits you ?

It's a hyperbolic analogy but, I think the principle is the same. Anyway, I also think that telling Djokovic to piss off is what is best for Australia (James quoting me in 3, 2, 1...). If the Australian public also want to see him GTF then that's an added bonus

It's over simplistic, one has basically zero negative effect, the other is an enormous step backwards in civilisation and will result in the deliberate taking of human life.

 

We're also talking about 70% of the population, if that isn't a mandate, then what is?

The lying is the big mistake, of course, but the government should have said that when deporting him rather than vague “public health” statements. 
 

We let equally wealthy footballers skip quarantine during the Euros so they can entertain, we also let less wealthy footballers play each week at the expense of amateurs, so I think a straightforward “you can come in but you have to isolate” policy would have sufficed. 

Agree with you matey. Neither side looks good.

Players on the pro circuit are tested rigourously.

 

However the level of testing has dropped siginificantly due to the logistical difficulties of Covid so maybe worth looking at unusual performance patters, i.e. Raducanu...

I remember reading something about Spanish sportsmen tbh. Some Spanish sports scientist got caught doing something I can’t quite remember exactly what for but Rafa was mentioned. I’m sure Arsene Wenger said something about Spanish players when they came to Arsenal too. I wish I could find the article. Basically it coincided with the Spanish team becoming world champions etc and Rafa dominating the tennis etc. 

I was shocked to find out Linford Christie etc were all caught for using performance enhancing drugs. Even Carl Lewis after all the fuss he made about Ben Johnson was also caught using. 
They’re all likely at it.

Dr Fuentes.  He was busted for helping people dope in cycling (I think). He then fessed up to having blood samples that would prove Nadal and a stack of top footballers were also doping, but the courts in Spain ordered they be destroyed. 

 

If Nadal is at it, you'd have to assume Federer and Djokovic are too, to be keeping up with him. The idea of drug free sport is ridiculous.

Carl Lewis failed three drug tests in 1988 alone. Ben Johnson was the sacrificial lamb.

Only one guy from the 100m Olympic final didn't test positive. 

 

The whole US track team failed tests and they(US) covered it up.

No apparently Andy Murray would have been the best if he hadnt had to play the best.   its like saying HIbs would have won more Derbies if they hadnt played Hearts.

Think he was on the board of every Spanish football team, except Real Sociedad. Also, wasn't he the one mentioned in Rio Ferdinand's book, where there was a queue of Man U and Arsenal players waiting to be injected.

OK since Novak was barred from Oz and now that France apparently wont let unvaccinated sports players into their country whats going to happen re champions league football ? Surely some players have made their choice not to be vaccinated.

Seems pretty fair. Novak is now held up as the man for the loonies. 
All tournaments should ban him. Stay in Serbia ya 🤡and hold some wee disease fest tournament for yourself and any other halfwit that thinks he’s right. 
Call it a major if he likes, he believes other sorts of fantasy so sure he can convince himself it’s a major if he thinks about it hard enough

I think you should be vaccinated however Novak - who has never been vaccinated in his life - is reticent to do so.

 

I do not agree with him but that is his choice.

 

However, just because he is globally recognised person who happens to be unvaccinated does not mean he is an anti-vaxxer spokesman...that is a title that others have put on him and is unfair.

 

I should add that Australia is about 80% fully vaccinated. If it does not feel comfortable in that position then it will never be comfortable and suggests somewhat it may be used as a reason to stop certain types of people entering the country. The fact that there is a huge difference in vax rates between white Aussies and the indigenous population already indicates a sense of exclusion for these people. Again.

Genuinely confused by your response tbh

 

Are you applauding a government that deports people based on their opposition to something that is not law? Deportations based on opinions?

 

What about immigrants arriving across the English channel? Shall we insist on proof of vaccination and deport them if they are unable ot provie it?

In a macro sense? A much healthier and richer global populace.

 

That skirts very close to eugenics though and is rightly unacceptable as an outcome.

 

How would we be if only those vulnerable to serious illness and death took the vaccine (based on averages as there'll always be outliers), then much the same as we are now imo.

Yes its clearly a fascist state where one cant have a  view or an   opinion about issues .  Where one is shamed and targeted about making their own choices about the body. Shame on those applauding this decision. . They are applauding fascism really.

UK Government said in March 2020, 800,000 dead.

 

Actually the so called over population crisis had already been reversed with most countries birth rates leading to lower populations.
