Israel Folau to Take Rugby Australia to Federal Court Over Contract Termination

It looks like he took Senator Abetz's advice!

From MSN.Com

Sacked former rugby international Israel Folau has launched legal proceedings with the Fair Work Commission against Rugby Australia and the Waratahs for breach of contract.

Folau's lawyers said under Section 772 of the Fair Work Act it was unlawful to terminate employment on the basis of religion.

In a statement, Folau said: "No Australian of any faith should be fired for practising their religion."

His lawyers said he was seeking substantial remedies.

However, he is Pope, and I pray for him every day.), the legitimacy of the House of Windsor or of the claims of the Elder Line of the House of France, or attacks on the legitimacy of any of the currently ruling Houses of Europe.
