lockdown restrictions. the leader of the opposition says that he thinks that borisjohnson broke the law. new zealand's prime minister says an underwater volcanic eruption in the southern pacific caused �*significant�* damage to the island nation of tonga and some coastal areas are still cut off. no injuries or deaths have been reported. hello and welcome to bbc news. an australian court has ruled that novak djokovic cannot stay in the country — upholding the government's decision to cancel his visa. three federaljudges have dismissed his application and the world men's tennis world number one will not now have the opportunity to defend his australian open title. this was the ruling as it was announced. the orders of the court are, one, the amended application be dismissed with costs, such costs to be agreed or, failing agreement, assist, two, reasons to be published at a later date. the ruling completes a frenetic 11 days. novak djokovic's vaccination exemption was overturned on his arrival in melbourne, only for a judge to rule that border officials had not followed the correct procedures. the immigration minister then used his special powers to order the serbian player out of the country — a decision now upheld by the courts. in the past hour novak djokovic has released and he added: australian prime minister scott morrison has given his reaction. in a statement, he said: the federal court ruling will help"keep our borders strong and keep australians safe". he went on to say: "it's now time to get on with the australian open and get back to enjoying tennis over the summer". phil mercer is in melbourne with the latest reaction. this has been an extraordinary end to an amazing chapter, that began over a week ago, when novak djokovic was detained at melbourne airport. he has had a court victory. he has been in immigration detention, he has had his visa cancelled by the immigration minister. he has gone back to court. and he has seen what he has not seen much of in his career, a defeat. in the next few hours, we expect novak djokovic to board an aircraft to dubai, we expect, after being deported from australia, so, what awaits him is infamy, embarrassment or humiliation, may be a combination of those three things, but the key fact is, novak djokovic has lost this last—ditch appeal to stay in australia, and he will not be competing here at melbourne park, when the first grand slam of the year begins on monday. so, in a few hours' time, the crowds and players will be here but novak djokovic won't be. we can go live now to our correspondent guy de launey in belgrade. what reaction has there been?

nobody is saying this is a moment _ what reaction has there been? nobody is saying this is a moment of— what reaction has there been? nobody is saying this is a moment of infamy i is saying this is a moment of infamy and embarrassment for novak djokovic, but rather they are saying it is a moment of shame for australia, which is the widespread view amongst the serbian news outlets that have been following this affair very closely stop we have seen at the very top levels of government here, they have been putting their support right behind novak djokovic. they are continuing to do so even after this judgment, which means he will not be able to take part in the australian open, and will be deported from the country. i met the serbian president and asked him for his initial reaction to the judgment. i and asked him for his initial reaction to the judgment. reaction to the 'udgment. i was three times — reaction to the judgment. i was three times vaccinated, - reaction to the judgment. i was three times vaccinated, so - reaction to the judgment. i was three times vaccinated, so it i reaction to the judgment. i was three times vaccinated, so it is | reaction to the judgment. i was . three times vaccinated, so it is not about_ three times vaccinated, so it is not about that, — three times vaccinated, so it is not about that, if you want it, to put principles — about that, if you want it, to put principles in front of everything, you should have said ok, and vaccinated people cannot enter the territory _ vaccinated people cannot enter the territory of australia, but you didn't — territory of australia, but you didn't say _ territory of australia, but you didn't say so, she said there could be didn't say so, she said there could he medital— didn't say so, she said there could be medical exemptions. he came there with a _ be medical exemptions. he came there with a medical exemption proposal, and then— with a medical exemption proposal, and then they restricted him for ten days _ and then they restricted him for ten days. why— and then they restricted him for ten days. why did you do it?

fin a what do you think the impact will be on novak djokovic? on novak d'okovic? on a professional level it is on novak djokovic? on a professional level it is obviously _ on novak djokovic? on a professional level it is obviously incredibly - level it is obviously incredibly disappointing. he won this tournament, that he has already won nine times, he would have been overwhelming favourite to win, it would have been a 21st grand slam, putting him ahead of roger federer and rafael nadal. he probably has his sights set higher than that and thinks he can go as high as the overall all—time leader on 2a slams, margaret corps. so it will be a dent in those plans, but on a personal level, he's a guy who loves battling adversity on the court, he always believes that he can win, he always backs for himself and he has come up short on this. it will have to lead to a period of reflection for him because this will probably not be the only country where he will have this sort of issue going forward. if he wants to go on trying to make history in tennessee may have to face the reality of getting vaccinated, but curiously has strong opinions against that. so tough times for him ahead. share against that. so tough times for him ahead. �* ., ., ., , ahead. are there other tournaments comine u- ahead. are there other tournaments coming op where — ahead. are there other tournaments coming up where there _ ahead. are there other tournaments coming up where there might - ahead. are there other tournaments coming up where there might be - coming up where there might be issues where he might run into the same problems?— issues where he might run into the same problems?

absolutely. it would be interesting to go into a l would be interesting to go into a parallel universe where he decides he has got a medical exemption and hasjust arrived, and i he has got a medical exemption and has just arrived, and i would imagine the public anger that has started and built on the long flight to australia, it had plenty of time to australia, it had plenty of time to gather momentum so, by the time he arrived it was a massive national news story, and he could probably have said it is my own private medical history and no one would have been able to challenge him so people might have thought he was vaccinated or had a legitimate medical exemption, it would never have allowed this kind of anger to foster, so i didn't see any regret about tweeting that out in the first place and everywhere he goes, this will be a big spotlight on him. he has made a rod for his own back. thank you, george belshaw. here in the uk pressure is mounting on borisjohnson, as the row over parties held in downing street while england was in lockdown intensifies. calls for him to resign from within his own party are growing as our political correspondent iain watson reports. borisjohnson is under more pressure this weekend over the reports of parties and gatherings in downing street during lockdown. mps have been hearing the views from their voters and it doesn't sound good for the prime minister. this is a former government minister, tim loughton. he is the sixth conservative mp to call for borisjohnson to go. he said his constituents were troubled, angered or appalled and, writing on his facebook page, he said that terminal damage has, tragically, been done to the reputation of the prime minister, and borisjohnson's position "is now untenable". but it takes 5a conservative mps to call for a leadership contest and downing street still believes borisjohnson can fight back. so far, no cabinet minister has broken ranks. and the mood of borisjohnson's mps could improve if, as expected, covid regulations are lifted in england later this month. but, it is the views of voters that will also influence mps. the conservatives snatched morley and outwood from labour in 2015 and the people here in the market feel they need a new prime minister. it is a bit disgusting, really, when we had to go through everything we had to do, and not, i had my brother's funeral, where we were only allowed the immediate family. they were stood there telling us to do one thing and doing another. ijust think it is disgraceful. i'm 50—50 as to whether i think he should go or not. _ the main thing is, they need a new leader. bye—bye boris. some conservative mps are now saying that it is the reaction on the doorsteps that will determine whether boris johnson is shown the door. iain watson, bbc news. our political correspondent nick eardley is here. what is the latest political reaction to this?— what is the latest political reaction to this?- what is the latest political reaction to this?

the big question is what tory mps do next. we - reaction to this? the big question | is what tory mps do next. we have six of them publicly saying that they think the prime minister should resign. speaking to other mps off the record, there is a considerable number who are unhappy, uncomfortable, many of them waiting to see what happens in this report from the senior civil servant who is looking into all of these allegations of rule breaking at downing street and in other government departments, they are waiting for that report before they stick their heads above the parapet to say what they think should happen next. but it does feel like the pressure in general is building on the government to have a mixture of mps getting a lot of hassle from their constituents, who are saying we are really unhappy about this, then you have the labour party now saying that they think the prime minister broke the law, and that he lied, and that there was industrial scale partying happening in downing street at the time, and then you have the tory chairman oliver dowden saying this morning that there needs to be a culture change in downing street. let's have a listen first to the labor leader. there is industrial scale partying going _ there is industrial scale partying going on— there is industrial scale partying going on at downing street, not much of it is— going on at downing street, not much of it is really— going on at downing street, not much of it is really the night. and the public— of it is really the night. and the public have made up their mind. the facts speak— public have made up their mind. the facts speak for themselves. that public have made up their mind. the facts speak for themselves.- facts speak for themselves. that is the view of — facts speak for themselves. that is the view of the _ facts speak for themselves. that is the view of the labor _ facts speak for themselves. that is the view of the labor leader, - the view of the labor leader, accusing the prime minister notjust of breaking the rules or bending the rules, but breaking the law, now, as well, which is a serious allegation. what is going on in the conservative party? what we heard from a couple of ministers this morning is pointing at the culture in downing street. it feels like that is the way the government is going. saying that there was a problem with people drinking and that needs to be addressed. what was interesting was that when oliver dowden the tory chairman was pushed on this this morning, he said ultimately it is the prime minister is responsible for that culture. it says to me the culture in downing street— it says to me the culture in downing street needs to be addressed and it is essential that when the prime minister— is essential that when the prime minister response to the stuart gray report, _ minister response to the stuart gray report, that he addresses that culture, — report, that he addresses that culture, and i know that the prime minister— culture, and i know that the prime minister is — culture, and i know that the prime minister is committed to doing exactly— minister is committed to doing exactly this. sorry, there are failings, _ exactly this. sorry, there are failings, we should have done better, — failings, we should have done better, much, much better, we need to up— better, much, much better, we need to up our— better, much, much better, we need to up our game and that needs to be addressed _ to up our game and that needs to be addressed and i know that the prime minister— addressed and i know that the prime minister attends —— intends to address— minister attends —— intends to address them. you saw in his statement to parliament him taking responsibility and you will see that when _ responsibility and you will see that when he _ responsibility and you will see that when he responds to the stuart gray report, _ when he responds to the stuart gray report, he _ when he responds to the stuart gray report, he will again take full responsibility but i know from the many— responsibility but i know from the many conversations with the prime minister. _ many conversations with the prime minister, he is in absolutely no doubt — minister, he is in absolutely no doubt that he should and will take responsibility and you will see that in the _ responsibility and you will see that in the statement that he makes to the house — in the statement that he makes to the house of commons when this report— the house of commons when this report is— the house of commons when this report is produced.— the house of commons when this report is produced. oliver dowden s-teakin report is produced. oliver dowden speaking to _ report is produced. oliver dowden speaking to sophie _ report is produced. oliver dowden speaking to sophie ray _ report is produced. oliver dowden speaking to sophie ray worth - report is produced. oliver dowden speaking to sophie ray worth on | report is produced. oliver dowden i speaking to sophie ray worth on the bbc this morning. we expect to see that report next week, the announcement to parliament will be very significant for what that report says. if it put some blame for some suggestion of the prime minister not doing what he should have, then i think that will dramatically increase the pressure on borisjohnson to stand down. you will also get tory mps back in the corridors of power discussing what they have been hearing from constituents over the weekend. that will increase the pressure, too. it is quite clear from ministers and from downing street that boris johnson has no intention of resigning but that could be tested in the next few days by what goes on in the next few days by what goes on in parliament. i'm nowjoined by aletha adu, political reporter at the mirror. where do you see things going? it has been a striking week, hearing the prime minister's so—called apology in the comments to then seeing tory mps going to the 1922 committee, and looking at ministers coming out with their thoughts, they are, and more and more stories of parties taking place. the latest on friday. and we heard that there was a culture in downing street where they were holding parties and gatherings every single friday during lockdown which isjust outrageous and, listening to the tory chairman oliver dowden, the tory chairman oliver dowden, the tory party are taking the public for fools. we are hearing countless reports and stories and hearing from sources within the westminster circle of what was going on, that they were breaking the rules, although we're not hearing from the prime minister, he is avoiding questions, he is to not tell us, in effect what was going on, and instead we are having to wait for this stuart gray report, and going back to what oliver dowden said this morning, —— c gray report. there seem to be a culture within downing street were drinking was allowed, and it needs to be stopped and more needs to be done but ultimately that responsibility lies with boris johnson the prime minister, he sets the tone of what is and is not allowed within westminster. latte the tone of what is and is not allowed within westminster. we read in the papers — allowed within westminster. we read in the papers this— allowed within westminster. we read in the papers this morning, _ allowed within westminster. we read in the papers this morning, there - allowed within westminster. we read in the papers this morning, there is l in the papers this morning, there is operation red meat to save big dog, policy announcements to win back support within the party. aldo those the sorts of measures that might change things? i spoke to one vice chairman of a local constituency this morning, a strong tory seat, and he said his initial reaction was borisjohnson should go immediately, but he says that he is weighing that against his record on other things, and they are weighing up the reaction locally and he said it is mixed, currently.— reaction locally and he said it is mixed, currently. yes, we now have six tory mps — mixed, currently. yes, we now have six tory mps on _ mixed, currently. yes, we now have six tory mps on the _ mixed, currently. yes, we now have six tory mps on the record - mixed, currently. yes, we now have six tory mps on the record calling i six tory mps on the record calling for borisjohnson to resign, tim loughton being the latest, the tories are dipping in the polls and they have been consistently dropping since before christmas. we have seen labour topping the polls, just means the public are quite tired, and that goes for people living within constituencies led by conservative mps. so itjust seems to me that the tories are trying their best to reflect on their record, many mps coming out on media rounds over the last week referring to how strong the economy is, but we are still in a pandemic, we still don't understand what is going on with the latest restrictions, the plan b restriction is set to expire at the end of this month, he can only deviate to other issues so much, because as it still stands, people are frustrated, having to relive the trauma of losing —— losing many of their loved ones who they could not physically be with, they could not see, being isolated for so long, may 2020, this is why the this is so significant because the country had beenin significant because the country had been in lockdown for many weeks and we were all struggling to cope but still making the right decisions and again, it feels as if officials thought it was one rule for them and one rule for everyone else so it will be interesting to see how long the prime minister can cling on, but if there is anyone who can cling on it would be boris because he has a way of making sure that he can make things work for himself, but it is extraordinary that he will not come clean and do the right thing and apologise to the public and explain exactly what has gone on instead of waiting for this sue gray report to come out. let's go back to our top story and the decision by a court in australia to deport novak djokovic — upholding the government's decision to cancel his visa. outside the court, nokak djokovic supporters have expressed anger at the decision to cancel his visa again. another injustice has occurred, another disgraceful episode in government, another, i don't even know what to call it any more. how do you feel? i feel outraged and angered by the fact that he's come here to play tennis. he's come here to bring usjoy, for his fans, notjust the serbian community but anyone who supports him. he's come here to put on a show. this is hisjob. it has nothing to do with privilege or how much money he has. it does not have to do with anything, it has to do with the fact that he was approved to come in to this country and then told to go back as soon as he came to the airport, and then was detained in the airport for eight hours. that is inhumane. we shouldn't have to be doing this, yeah? we should be you know, supporting him, on court, cheering him on like that. but not like this. this is not one battle that we wanted to watch. to be honest. lets cross to perth and speak to daniel estrin, an immigration lawyer. we spoke yesterday and you felt the government lawyers had a strong case and it was unlikely that djokovic would win, that is what has happened, so what is your reaction now? it happened, so what is your reaction now? , ., ., , , , happened, so what is your reaction now? ., , ,, ., now? it is one of little surprise to be honest- _ now? it is one of little surprise to be honest- it _ now? it is one of little surprise to be honest. it became _ now? it is one of little surprise to be honest. it became apparent i now? it is one of little surprise to l be honest. it became apparent that while mr djokovic's lawyers put his case, the palace for the mr was too broad to be attacked on any jurisdictional error basis. quite an extraordinary power, and i'm not surprised by the verdict today. where does this go then? does this set any precedent, say anything about how things will be, going forward? hat about how things will be, going forward? ., . ., , forward? not so much in legalterms but it tives forward? not so much in legalterms but it gives the _ forward? not so much in legalterms but it gives the minister _ forward? not so much in legalterms but it gives the minister confidence l but it gives the minister confidence to be able to use these extraordinary powers in ways he may not have imagined. when he has used them in the past for political agitators, people like david erving, because they were exciting certain discord in the community, mr djokovic is not really in that category so that is a concern, but these powers are nothing new. about 13 years ago a previous immigration minister came out and said that i have godlike powers and i am not comfortable with those, minister chris simmons. he said a mite comfortable with that? notjust because of the concern about playing god but the lack of transparency and accountability for those decisions. so i think what this has brought to the forefront of australia and the world is that these extraordinary powers that ministers are to swoop in and make a decision really at their leisure. d0 in and make a decision really at their leisure.— in and make a decision really at their leisure. , ., ,, ., ,, their leisure. do they take an issue like this into _ their leisure. do they take an issue like this into the _ their leisure. do they take an issue like this into the realm _ their leisure. do they take an issue like this into the realm of- their leisure. do they take an issue like this into the realm of politics l like this into the realm of politics from the law?

it is. it is clearly a political move. the minister - from the law? it is. it is clearly a political move. the minister is i political move. the minister is simply saying i don't like this person, i have certain views about what this person may or may not do and whether that happens or not the threshold is very low, it is made, so it becomes a political decision. what is important to remember in this case is that the court did not agree with the minister's decision, it didn't have to, it neither disagreed or agreed, but he was allowed to do what he was able to do within the framework of the law and that a broad ranging power is a real concern and now is the time to review that, is this correct separation of powers, is this what we want to be seeing in a democracy like australia?
