The fallout from the Novak Djokovic saga may continue for some time | 7.30

ABC News (Australia) published this video item, entitled “The fallout from the Novak Djokovic saga may continue for some time | 7.30” – below is their description.

Novak Djokovic may have left the country, but the fallout from the saga may continue for some time. There was the renewed focus on the plight of asylum seekers. The Federal Court case that sealed his fate provided a confronting illustration of just how sweeping the so-called “God” powers of the immigration minister are, and how difficult they are to challenge. And the glaring gap between the federal government’s argument that Djokovic had to go – on the back of dubious evidence that he was a vocal anti-vaxxer – and the prime minister’s tolerance of members of his own government loudly proclaiming such views, was on show for all to see.
