MARK Latham has indicated he will be joining Pauline Hanson’s One Nation party, saying an announcement would be made “soon”.
The former Labor leader was asked about rumours of his One Nation move on Ben Fordham’s 2GB program this afternoon.
He told Fordham to “watch this space” and said “you’re on the right path, you’re amazingly close”.
When asked how far away the announcement was, he said: “Soon.”
The Daily Telegraph is reporting Mr Latham will announce the move on Alan Jones’ 2GB program tomorrow morning.
Senator Hanson had previously denied Mr Latham would be a candidate for One Nation at the next federal election after he quite the Liberal Democratic Party in September. He joined the party in May last year.

Mark Latham will send One Nation's intellectual capacity off the charts and therein lies his problem; no-one understands what he's really on about and as per his other political party experiences; it's bound to end in tears!

As for what might happen if he did make into Parliament and he came across Tony Abbott and sought to shake his hand aka the John Howard moment … bring it on I say!
