Michael Atkinson Resigned!!

So, even though he won the seat of Croydon in SA's recent elections, Michael Atkinson MP has resigned from the front bench of the SA House of Representatives, in turn sacrificing his job as the Attorney-General of South Australia.

Michael Atkinson was the only man blocking the passing of an R18 rating for video games in Australia. Hopefully, the new person won't be a puppet of Atkinson's. As well as that, gone is a man who is a prominent supporter of the Internet Censorship scheme, as well as the man who introduced a law stating that all internet bloggers commenting on politics must put their real name and post code after their comment, then backflipped on this law upon realising how stupid it was.

So, he's finally retired. Maybe the new Attorney-General won't be so oppressive?
