When I was on Sky’s The Front Page programme the other night the topic of Israel Folau and his religious views came up. Yet again.

This story has been around now for over a month with no signs of disappearing.  A Daily Telegraph piece on the Folau fiasco, the trampling of his rights to speak freely and the Australian Rugby Union’s cack-handed handling of the whole business hoovered up ten minutes of air time with a federal election just days away.
