State Politician of the Month

This month's State Politican of the Month is Ian Hunter, who bears the noble crown previously awarded on this website to Ann Bressington and Sandra Kanck. Go South Australian politics.

I found this in The Advertiser, no snidey pinko comment necessary because we've already said it all...

A LABOR MP has described parliamentary prayers as an "archaic practice" and a waste of time, angering fellow politicians.
Legislative Council backbencher Ian Hunter wrote a letter to The Advertiser after it was reported he was reading a book during prayers.
"Of course, as an atheist, I don't say prayers," he said.
"I see them as just one more example of an archaic practice which wastes the time of MPs.
"However, I am a polite fellow generally, and rather than cause a fuss for my colleagues who may take some comfort in such practices at the commencement of each parliamentary session, I prefer to improve my mind by reading."

Go Ian Hunter!
