And we will have the dubous enjoyment of three years of a layabout, pugilistic, foulmouthed Latham. Maybe you should ring his ex to discover what he is really like.
He will probably retrace the steps of some of his precessors:
Gough Whitlam:
(a) The Khemlani Affair (b) Wealth destroying interest rates. (c) Recognition of the murderous Indonesian Soeharto regime. (d) Overnight destruction of the Textile industry (and numerous jobs) by the o/night tariff reduction of 25%. etc. etc.
Paul Keating:
(a) The recession we had to have. (b) the 'secret' treaty with that Indonesian barabarian Soeharto (c) A truly 'in my pocket' RBA, a la Bernie Fraser (d) The promsed tax cut that was never implemented. (e) Foul mouth verbiage in and out of Parliament. etc. etc.
I won't even mention Bob Hawke's (the Silver Budgie) foul mouth and his dubious close relationships with some 'captains of industry'!
