| South Australian Premier Jay Weatherill |
Following last week's announcement by Tasmania that would introduce legislation legalizing gay marriage, South Australia's premier has signed on as well:
South Australian Premier Jay Weatherill told a rally in Adelaide he would legislate for gay marriage at a state level.
On the steps of Parliament House, Mr Weatherill said he would support a Greens bill and allow Labor MPs a conscience vote.
"People should be entitled to express their own identity in any way they wish and the law shouldn't become a barrier to prevent them from doing that," he said."So, from my perspective, it's a simple question of the dignity of the individual. People should be entitled to express their identity in any way they wish and the law shouldn't get in the way."

Forward, kids. Keep moving forward.
