Newsday

Available for over a year

The Australian government has cancelled the visa of the Serbian tennis star, Novak Djokovic, for the second time. The immigration minister, Alex Hawke, said the decision was made in the public interest. The men's world number one tennis player initially had his visa revoked last week because he had not been vaccinated against Covid. More calls for the resignation of British Prime Minister Boris Johnson after it was revealed Downing Street staff held a 'lockdown-breaking party' on the eve of Prince Philip's funeral and 'drank into the early hours' the night before the Queen sat alone to lay her husband of 70 years to rest. And secret audio sheds light on the frantic last hours of former Middle East dictator, Tunisian president Zine al-Abidine Ben Ali.
