Good decision. Keep Australia safe. If you decided to travel overseas to highly infected countries like India during a pandemic then you have no one to blame but yourself.

Shows just how we should never trust public servants.

Not sure if it occurs to anyone that it is worth buying some time to think through safe solutions for all. Also, what was done previously does not have to be specifically recreated now. Finally, regardless of what the current govt does, it will be wrong. Always, criminally...

Such a fool country 😑😤

Government already had done a lot to help and they are doing for what best for Australian..

Stop complaining. Respect the law of Aus! Be responsible & accountable of your own actions & decisions. Everyone is forgetting we are dealing with a triple mutant strain that is evolving! Wake up !!

Thats because the courts have no common-sense.and usually do whats politically correct and not whats legally correct.Just as they always do.otherwise they will not climb the ladder. very rarely do they make a decision against a government body.Even with no evidence supporting it

Good 👍🏻

Moronic. Banning Australian citizens from returning to their own country is illegal and immoral.

Not breaking news. Common sense.

Why rejected, just think about students future

Good decision

Australia can't risk it

For how long families have to wait to get reunited? looks never ending like this!! If you could make arrangement for the cricketers to get them out from India in just 2 days, you could have done something for non privileged people too in last 1 year ScottMorrisonMP

No surprise! It’s Australia!!!

Court made correct decision to protect Australian.

INDIA TRAVEL --BAN**UPHELD MANY PEOPLE AVOID INDIA as if** BEING BERMUDA TRIANGLE LIFE-Doomed PM MORISON AUSTRALIA IS COOL ,PM CANNOT**RISK CORONAVIRUS to SPREAD BONDI to BYRON BAY PLAN ; SOCIAL DISTANCE MASK , Mind Your Business. COVID19 *SURGE DEADLY THANK YOU 😊 PM 🌹

Good 👏👏👏

That’s great news Australia doesn’t need people returning from overseas to possibly spread 💀 death here they are dying like flies on the street of India 🇮🇳 there is no vaccine for their virus 🦠

So good keep Australia safe 🇦🇺

Good!

We better not be paying for this guys failed court bid ffs

Who paid off the judge 🤷🏻‍♀️

Vaccine is disaster!!

this judge did good job. Great!

Good

You’ve all gone mad, the media have scared you half to death. You had someone swanning around Sydney with covid last week, result? No one caught the super infectious virus! Let your people home. Covid kills people in old age care homes, see U.K. 60% of deaths.

Great news well done feds

9NewsSyd Good decision.

I don't get why the ban was ever implemented in the first place. May 15th is when the ban ends, 5 more days. Will India have had covid under control in 5 days? Boggles the mind

Now what a bout International Students?

Like always, the bad stuff is never Morrisons fault, Hunt takes the heat on this & state premiers do his job on quarantine. Morrison still has no plan apart from rely on the states to bale him out.

Reason prevails over passion. Good. Leaders of the country should be able to set aside emotion when coolheadedness is required in making tough decisions for the good of the country.

Good

Good it’s the ✅thing to do. Ty Judge we cannot risk with complacency. Our country is important too! India was warned Modi Neva acted. Parents saving childcare costs here now hv to pay for the risk of covid. No point in carrying on now they should’ve put well being be4 $$

Fascists

Federal Court dismisses part of a challenge to the Australian Government's India travel banThe Federal Court throws out part of a challenge to a temporary ban on passengers travelling from India where COVID-19 infection rates have been escalating. Sounds like a pretty simple reasoning, and one the act/regs would have likely detailed, meaning the challenge is likely to lack substance and be a bit thin. What did they think would happen, Citizens in Malaysia have more constitutional rights than us. The one positive of Covid has been people realising how few rights we have & the inability of Courts to uphold 'implied rights' Article doesn't say which part was thrown out & what remains

Federal Court deals blow to India travel ban challengeBreaking: The Federal Court has dealt a major blow to a legal challenge to the Morrison government’s temporary ban on citizens entering Australia from India, with a judge dismissing the first round of the case. So the Australian passport is useless!!!! If you can lock Victorians out of their own state, or lock them in their homes with a 5km radius etc. there is no fkn chance you’d overturn border control measures We're not citizens, we're subjects. Get over it or get a republic.
