Actually if you look at the anti vax legislation he proposed he gained the support of 4 LNP Senators, Canavan, Antic, Rennick and McLachlan, along with Palmer’s Babet, all of whom are in the whacky Roberts club anyway.
But only 6 votes out of 76 in the Senate will ensure that type of legislation has zero chance of ever getting up.
So despite our spelling challenged mate’s assertions, vaccine mandates are legal and will not be overruled by legislation.

you mightbe under the misconceptiion the legal world is exactly as it appears to the laymen and is simple and straightforward. It isnt. So to spell it out if the policy is introduced improperly then it possibly has no grounds and anyone sacked mightve been sacked wrongfuly and been discriminated against. A employer mandate esp one brung in improperly is compleetly different to an SOP.
Employee groups, unions and OH&S groups were consulted before implementation of the policy. Courts have upheld mandates, the government will not legislate against them. What happened was 100% legal if the proper HR processes were followed.
