In a step forward for human rights in Australia, human rights commissioner Tim Wilson has resigned. Wilson, formerly policy director of the right-wing think tank Institute of Public Affairs, was two years into a five year contract.
Unfortunately for the people of Andrew Robb's Victorian electorate Goldstein, Wilson has resigned to seek Liberal Party preselection for the federal seat after Robb decided to retire.
Wilson, who is apparently 鈥渧ery proud鈥 of his work as human rights commissioner, said: 鈥淭his is a tough decision for me, but the right one. The people of Goldstein deserve someone who will fight for them.鈥
Unfortunately they are likely to get Wilson.
