+#+title: The Djokovic case

+#+begin_quote
+Rules are rules the Prime Minister declared, especially when it comes
+to our borders. Rules weren't rules last year, when celebrities
+travelled to and from Australia while ordinary people were denied a
+permit to leave, or even more scandalously, not afforded the most
+basic right of a citizen to return to their country. Now though, when
+Australia chooses to insist on a medical procedure as a condition of
+entry to Australia the rules are suddenly rigid.
