South Australia's opposition party has called for the firing of Attorney-General Michael Atkinson, the man against an R18+ game rating, after he suggested that a West Croydon citizen didn't exist and was a name created by the Liberal Party in order to work against him. It turns out the man did in fact exist and lived a few hundred meters from Atkinson's office. Paranoid, much?

SOUTH Australia's Opposition is calling on Premier Mike Rann to sack his attorney-general after an alleged breach of the ministerial code of conduct.

Yesterday, Attorney-General Michael Atkinson repealed controversial internet censorship laws, enacted last month, that required all internet-based comment on the March 20 election to include the author's real name and postcode.

Those who didn't comply could be hit with fines of $1250 for individuals and businesses could face $5000 penalties.

On Tuesday, Mr Atkinson told DMG Radio the laws were needed because people such as Aaron Fornarino were plants for the Liberal Party.

"I'll give you an example; repeatedly in the AdelaideNow website one will see commentary from Aaron Fornarino of West Croydon. That person doesn't exist," he said.

"That name has been created by the Liberal Party in order to run Liberal Party commentary."

However, it was later revealed Mr Fornarino did exist, residing just a few hundred metres from Mr Atkinson's electorate office.
