Unless Niko Tiliopoulos’s sacking is defeated, it will set a precedent for use throughout the tertiary education industry to victimise and sack educators who refuse, for critical health reasons, to adhere to the intensifying “return to campus” offensive.

    for critical health reasons

    insisting on COVID safety

    Seems really vague. What exactly was she insisting people do? Wear masks? That’d be pretty bonkers.

      Tiliopoulos has severe respiratory and autoimmune conditions, so he cannot risk catching COVID-19, which could be life-threatening. Two doctors, including one appointed by a university review panel, made that assessment of “substantial” risks to his health.

      Seems pretty reasonable to me, also says that thousands students were against his removal, must be a great guy.
