“But I would invite Mrs Court to reflect on the fact that her views and the way she has expressed them have not always been respectful to other Australians, have caused great hurt and anguish for many Australians,” he said.
Court told Nine News people should be able to separate her religious beliefs from her sporting achievements. “It’s not just about gender disparity. As a western Sydney MP, I scour the list every time there is an announcement for Australia Day, in particular, for local heroes that can be celebrated in the Order of Australia. I have to tell you often it’s slim pickings.“Mr Bowen said there was no shortage of volunteers deserving of recognition in his own electorate, for example, who were overlooked.
chloebooker jamesmassola Only disgusted with Dan Andrews? Not the thousands of Australians disgusted by her sister Margaret Courts hateful views, not the other recipients who refused their Australia Day awards in protest of her sister?
chloebooker jamesmassola Cults.
chloebooker jamesmassola So now I have two enemies in that family. I was ready for that.
chloebooker jamesmassola Well one could just say “all in the family” what could one expect?
chloebooker jamesmassola So? Court was given a high-ranking honour years ago for achievements in tennis years before that. Since then, she's demonstrated ignorance and bigotry. Hardly grounds for any award.
chloebooker jamesmassola Andrews has done far more damage to Victorians than Courts beliefs that may offend ? For example almost all Australian COVID aged care deaths occurred in Victoria ?
chloebooker jamesmassola Dictator Dan is a grub.
chloebooker jamesmassola Hear, hear. She produced a fantastic sporting achievement and deserves the honour. Free speech means just that. She is entitled to her opinion and should not be pilloried by the LGBTQ’s activists, leftist media hacks. Leave her alone and silence the rainbow activist loudmouths.
chloebooker jamesmassola This is news.? FFS where is the journalism. This belongs in No Idea next to the horoscope page
chloebooker jamesmassola Everyone right now on her sisters views 👇👇👇👇👇
chloebooker jamesmassola Dan was completely correct in his views of the award bestowed on this woman, she’s a tennis player from the past (nothing more,nothing less )
chloebooker jamesmassola Crazy but I didn't ask.
chloebooker jamesmassola She's a homophobe
chloebooker jamesmassola I'm just crushed that I haven't been recognised for my single handed support for Australian breweries and wine makers HIC!
chloebooker jamesmassola
chloebooker jamesmassola Who gives a fuck what her sister thinks? Fuck the Court family and their hatred.
chloebooker jamesmassola Zzzzzzzzz
chloebooker jamesmassola Why rag on Dan the journo asked the question.
chloebooker jamesmassola I'm disgusted she is disgusted.....
chloebooker jamesmassola Agreed. I think DanielAndrewsMP remarks were way outside his remit. I think he is very untrustworthy. auspol vicpol
chloebooker jamesmassola Her sister you say? Well, I'm convinced. Sign me up! Any spots open for those fun sleep away camps for all the gays? That's my kind of party!
chloebooker jamesmassola Wasn't Court an amateur tennis player? I don't know why people fuss over her. Today's tennis player would beat her in a heartbeat.
chloebooker jamesmassola Bow down to the minorities... standard procedure in the world now.
chloebooker jamesmassola IStandWithDan
chloebooker jamesmassola IstandwithDanAndrews
chloebooker jamesmassola Margaret Court would not pass the pub test! She is a bigot and a homophobe. The only reason she has been nominated is her Pentecostal religious affiliations. There should be an outcry about it. IStandWithDan
chloebooker jamesmassola Margaret was ON the side of apartheid, women not having a choice over their body, and limiting marriage to select people. She is no Australian hero.
chloebooker jamesmassola Did you get a quote from her sister’s brother’s girlfriend’s college roommate too? Like wgaf? 🙄 BigotsGonnaBigot
chloebooker jamesmassola Knighthood next hopefully.
chloebooker jamesmassola When kids start killing themselves because of Dan Andrews’ hateful campaigns of religious bigotry, I’ll start to care about this deliberately obtuse and whiningly meaningless screech. MargaretCourt AustraliaDay AusPol
chloebooker jamesmassola Like her or hate her she’s entitled to her religious views and beliefs. Just as those who disagree with her demand all respect their beliefs she entitled to the same respect. Anglicans, Catholics, Orthodox, Jews, Muslims all disagreed with SSM & agree with her basic beliefs.
chloebooker jamesmassola Well her opinion is likely in the minority... should gain traction then...
chloebooker jamesmassola Good at tennis. Bad at EVERYTHING ELSE. STOP PROMOTING THIS PIECE OF work.
Oh, her feelings are hurt? That’s a shame.
chloebooker jamesmassola My brother's uncle's grandmother's half-sister said the SMH has gone to the dogs. Guess she was right.
chloebooker jamesmassola I’m disgusted with her support of the sad old bigot.
chloebooker jamesmassola My brother thinks Court is a vile homophobe and a racist.
bencubby chloebooker jamesmassola DanielAndrewsMP the Governor General should resign over this 'promotion' of Margaret Court for doing nothing since her 2007 gong. Unless publicity stating homofobic comments is the reasons.
chloebooker jamesmassola This isn't news. It's drivel.
chloebooker jamesmassola Well well, blood is thicker than water .... however stand by you Mr Andrew’s and totally in awe no disgust here...
chloebooker jamesmassola Aren’t the awards for people that have done something in last year, or five, or ten?
bencubby chloebooker jamesmassola I don't think we give a flying fuck what the sister of a homophobic bigot and cult leader thinks.
chloebooker jamesmassola She has already been honoured for her tennis, since then what has she done that adds to that legacy? Has she done anything that has helped younger players? Or raised money, or donated money to help emerging tennis players? Otherwise,?
chloebooker jamesmassola This was such a media set up for Andrews. As he said, he has previously made his views clear, why bring him into it again? Do the LNP and Murdoch honestly think we are all so stupid we don't see what they are doing?
chloebooker jamesmassola Well her sister would say that wouldn't she. But it's not all about her sister. Dan Andrews said what heaps of us are also saying. Clearly it's not a good decision when it causes so much division... But that's how the LNP role!
chloebooker jamesmassola Well you can expect a sister to say that. BTW many Australians are also condemning the award to MargaretCourt . australiadayhonours
chloebooker jamesmassola Sorry Margaret, attention seeking at your age is unacceptable. Especially for a 'good Christian woman' whos is simply providing the charity your lord demands of you
chloebooker jamesmassola How is that news, unless the sister was estranged? Seriously, ThisisNotJournalism
chloebooker jamesmassola And we’re disgusted with her bloody sister 😡
chloebooker jamesmassola
chloebooker jamesmassola An honour is about respect. She deserves none.
chloebooker jamesmassola Margaret Court can say what she likes. She won many trophies as best female tennis player. She was recognised for services to tennis and community. But what the hell has she done since her last award to deserve this new and higher honour? Why is she even nominated?
chloebooker jamesmassola DanielAndrewsMP is not a leader. He is a misogynist, a bully, a liar and a dictator. His behavior on so many levels is disgraceful
chloebooker jamesmassola Someone was paid to publish, edit and write this. Really?
chloebooker jamesmassola Very neutral & unbiased opinion.
chloebooker jamesmassola Oh, the old witch's sister defends her...
chloebooker jamesmassola You gotta feel sorry for the old fossil !!!!!!
chloebooker jamesmassola Shameful nomination with Morrison’s fingerprints all over it. Religious nutters all
chloebooker jamesmassola And that’s news!? It’d be news if Ms Court’s sister appropriately agreed with DanielAndrewsMP .
chloebooker jamesmassola My cousin's boyfriend's uncle said...
chloebooker jamesmassola I can say with some confidence Canada would not recognize someone like Margret Court with the Order of Canada based on her comments. That said we did appoint a jerky work place bully astronaut who doesn’t like people or public events as our Governor General, so who the hell knows
chloebooker jamesmassola Margret Court will be our last biological female tennis great. What a tennis player she was and I really hope the girls of the future get the chance to be great tennis players too. MargaretCourt AustralianOpen auspol
chloebooker jamesmassola Well! We know which side of her wafer she’s buttered. Keeping the hate in the family. Genetic propensity perhaps...
chloebooker jamesmassola Dan Andrews and stood up to state the obvious Margaret Court is a disgraceful decision
chloebooker jamesmassola Yes, what I should do to give the court a chances to appeal?
chloebooker jamesmassola Let me guess. Margaret's sister is a Pentecostal cultist too?
chloebooker jamesmassola What’s this rubbish? Who cares what her sister thinks. Sure must be a homophobe like her to defend her
chloebooker jamesmassola Why do self indulgent people like Court & Dan need to air their opinions? Wish they wld just shut up & keep their thoughts to themselves. Court being an outdated lady & Dan being an arrogant egomaniac who shld be hiding under a rock rather than airing his opinion after last year.
chloebooker jamesmassola And my brother thinks Court is a dreadful old bigot. thisisnotnews
chloebooker jamesmassola Tough titties.
chloebooker jamesmassola Well now she knows how most of Australia feel about her sister condemning gay people
chloebooker jamesmassola Looks as if her sister is every bit as bad as Margaret Court herself. I admire family loyalty, usually. Not in this case. What's appalling is honouring hate speech, especially under the guise of a warped anti-christian 'religion'. SMH shouldn't be giving her a voice.
chloebooker jamesmassola Like Pauline Hanson, Bob Katter in drag only represents a tiny proportion of the population but is given Queen of Australia status by the establishment of media and politicians.
chloebooker jamesmassola Well that objective opinion settles it.
chloebooker jamesmassola These philosophies DO NOT BELONG IN A MULTI-TEIRED MULTI SOCIOLOGY-CULTURE COUNTRY. Sociologically speaking they belong in a simplified single level Society. Nice, basic hierarchal aristocratic structure. Somewhere bland and pale. Where my ancestors sprung...they belong there.
chloebooker jamesmassola Yeah, there’s a few of us who are disgusted with MargaretCourt’s commentary about the LGBTQ community. This award is an indication that the LNP is ramping up attacks on anyone who does not fit with ScottMorrisonMP’s Pentecostal view of the world.
chloebooker jamesmassola Fck the Courts
chloebooker jamesmassola Good for her. But many decent Australians are 'disgusted' by Margaret Court's claimed Biblical justification for homophobia. How does 'God' give life to LGBTQ people then? Or?
chloebooker jamesmassola I think Daniel Andrews should jump off the Westgate Bridge rather than continuing to try and score political points with the woke Melbourne media.
