There are many words I could choose to describe Victoria Premier Daniel Andrews. In the spirit of Australia Day, I will be kind and go with hypocrite.

Margaret Court will be officially declared a Companion of the Order of Australia (AC) on Tuesday for her success as a tennis player and mentoring of young sportspeople.  

Apparently, that’s not good enough.  

Sports skill, and supportive spirit towards upcoming talent, is not enough if your name is Margaret Court and you happen to hold Christian beliefs about marriage.  

Court opposed same-sex marriage and therefore, in the eyes of the left, she is permanently cancelled.
