“I stand by our comments. I was asked the question, would we be asking the Commonwealth government to exempt certain people from the requirement to be vaccinated, no, that was the answer then, that is the answer now,” he said during a press conference on Tuesday.Stream the latest news on COVID-19 with Flash.

“I don't issue visas, the Commonwealth government does that. There's a court ruling, whether that's appealed is a matter for the Commonwealth government.” However, the visa decision was quashed yesterday in federal Court by Judge Anthony Kelly after he ruled the cancellation “unreasonable” under section 116 of the Migration Act – given the conditions in which the World No. 1 was informed of the issues with his visa.
In a statement released on Monday a spokesperson for Mr Hawke said it was within his “discretion to consider cancelling Mr Djokovic’s visa under his personal power of cancellation within section 133C of the Migration Act”.Section 133C states the Minister has the power to cancel a person’s visa if he is “satisfied” a ground for cancelling the visa exists under section 116 and the Minister “is satisfied that it would be in the public interest to cancel the visa".
Funny how he thinks that now, but didn't seem to care when they organised to bring him here in the first place...
To bad tosser they are here!!😂
Go Dan your the only one with any Balls to make a Direct call on this Good on you You have made me feel I bet thousands and thousands more feel like everything we have endured has counted for something That a blow in can’t rule our Country Hope all other politics grow some balls
Misleading headline.
Yeah! Yeah! But Novak is rich 🤑
Absolutely correct. Go Australia show the world you DO NOT Bow to arrogant money hungry sports person
Yep only let fully vaccinated people in that have brought in Omicron.
Carnt even comment prop now Australia is stuffed sky won't publish my comment why...id like to know sky
Well said
Oh Dan. Drunk with your what you perceive to be unlimited power. The NWO will spit you out like used chewing gum. You just wait.
this common sense stance by Andrews will win him the next Vic election. Morrison and his circus will be gone. They should also face criminal charges for knowingly and deliberately putting citizens health at risk.
He is 100% correct
Meanwhile....AUSTRALIAN Engineer Robert Pether has been imprisoned in iraq for 9 months and the Australian government AND AUSTRALIA are ignoring his desperate pleas for help. freerobertpether ARBITRARYDETENTION iraq humanrights
Of course, was always going to play, world no1, tennis cannot survive without him, big money; the rich & famous, different rules for them. They can do what they like, have lawyers to circumvent any laws, if it were any ordinary person, would've been branded anti-vaxxer & deported
Not a Dan fan but agree with him on this.
You are bad boy
Bit late Dan. Your government facilitated this idiots entry into this country.
Yep the unvaccinated don't deserve to be infected by our vaccinated. I agree chairman Dan.
Daniel Andrew’s should not be allowed to remain in Australia or in any position of power. He is corrupt.
Firstly, I call BS as I have not seen any evidence the Dictator has any capacity to think at all, and secondly both the vaccinated and unvaccinated can catch and spread the virus … so logically what difference does it make? - see my first point.
This clowns comments simply don’t matter
Because the data doesn't lie! LOL Victoria with zero vaccinations in 2020 1st July 2020 - 11th Oct 2020 = 789 deaths Victoria with 77.5% of population vaccinated 2021 1st Oct 2021 - 11th Jan 2021 = 712 deaths. Stacking bodies because stacking branches is illegal. LOL
This whole argument is absurd. Having the virus is as good, if not better, than being double vaccinated. The science backs this up. Europe also recognises this. What's wrong with Aus? Since when does public opinion dictate public policy? auspol qldpol
Daniel Hitler Seig Heil!!!
Hear, hear 👏👏👏
DA is right
🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
But what about the Judges, Doctors and Politicians in other states? They are already here, and looking at Dan.
“Professional or high-performance athletes and all other workers involved in professional sport are required to be fully vaccinated (unless a valid medical exemption applies)” Vic Gov website advice! please explain Dan!!!!
I think wearing the mask and being in Lockdowns for so long was planned to make people stupid so they could get away with all their lies
I think an awful lot of aussies agree. Visa should never have been given in the first place. Novak certainly has a thick skin if he plays.
Either should Communism
Yeah ok Dan, why don’t you lock your state again 🙄
I agree with Daniel Andrews. Anyone whose shit stinks should not be allowed into Australia. 😂
Is he not a little embarrassed that it was his government that approved the exemption initially? 😂
Dan shouldn’t be allowed in Australia
How much are these vaccine companies paying him to say that?
Daniel Andrews should not be in Australia. He loves communist China.
This is a message videos for you premier and ABC news share with your governments and society
If you are a member or a voter your the problem not the unvaccinated
I think he's a d**K vaccinated or unvaccinated every body should be free to enter the country if your vaccinated what's your f**king problem could it be you now see just how useless the vaccine is it more than likely accounts for the increased ammount of case in country now
He's on the side of the majority of Australians who resent an unvaccinated person being allowed to thumb his nose at our laws.
Recovered from Covid? You have FAR better protection than a vaccine. Creation of anti-bodies from multiple proteins, not JUST the spike protein, occurs with infection. This equals broader & longer lasting protection. This is common scientific knowledge. Retire DanielAndrewsMP
This is very funny to see something that both dan and scomo agree on, shame scomo tried to do it as a stunt and now it's backfired, if he stuck to granting him his visa then dan would be in massive shit
From the sounds of it dictator DanielAndrewsMP would prefer to GAS the unjabbed. Now he is going after the ugly selfish antivaxers who ONLY took 2 doses, which worked so well as we c. In 3 months guess who he'd like gassed? 4EverJabbs dont work. STOP THIS DISCRIMINATION!
DanielAndrewsMP is hilarious. It was the state of Victoria who issued the exemption liar
It’s bullying. So unvaccinated covid negative cannot come but vaccinated covid positive are very welcome?
I don’t think idiots should be running Australia!
Don't agree with The Premier often. He is spot on here
Hey Dictator DanielAndrewsMP I went to my 'Witch' Doctor' whose been bought and paid for by Big Pharma and showed him my excemption. He gladly accepted it.
Who cares what this power hungry egomaniac thinks about the country. Dude needs to watch where he walks....lots of stairs around these days
Just Because there are unvaccinated people… does not automatically make them of ill health or carrying covid 🤔
.Bravo DanielAndrewsMP! Unvaccinated people should NOT be allowed into Australia auspol
I don't think Dan should be, get rid of him already
But Morrison stuffed up again. No surprises there
Check the antibodies and you‘ll see if he lies.
Over you to ScottytheFailure Any chance of a decision breakout out here?
Throw Novak out of Victoria
For the first time I agree with him. Grow some balls ScoMo.
That explains perfectly well why Melbourne people experienced the longest lockdown in the history of the world. Melbourne people should really be angry with Dane Andrew's Government instead of having no solution for people who can not get vaccinated.
I agree wholeheartedly with that!!!
Yet the vaccinated can still catch it, still pass it on and will still need another 6 boosters by next Christmas…
Tyranny pure and simple
Oh yeah? While the vaccinated are the ones bringing the new variants here? Yeah that’s really smart Dr Andrews 🙈🙈🙈
