Mark Latham stuck the boot into Mike Baird this morning, following the news Baird would step down as NSW Premier. But Latho’s view of Baird does not apply to all Liberals, with the former Labor leader set to appear at a fundraiser for the Roseville branch of the Liberal Party, speaking at a dinner hosted by the Northern Sydney Conservative Forum. As reported in The Australian today, Latham will speak on the topic “The Fight to Save our Civilisation: Why Social Conservatives and Social Democrats have found Common Cause” on February 22. The organisation has previously hosted Jennifer Oriel and Tom Switzer in similar events, and tickets to this one cost $85 a pop.
Surprised? Not a bit. Latham is a misogynist, facsist Trumpista with a history of violence. Great match for the NSW Liberal hard-right.
Poor Mark. Never recovered from the stress of being the leader of a political party. Still wandering in the poltical wilderness looking for a home that fits his ‘constitution.’
One of the reasons I drifted from the Labor Party towards the Greens. I get why some writers at Crikey are down on the Greens, but, given the ALP picked this man as their leader, can you understand why some folks don’t feel at home there? So many great Labor people, but ‘leadershite’ over the years has done a lot of damage. Now if they could make, say, Linda Burney leader…
Latham’s always been a fruitcake, I’ll never forgive him or the ALP for making me vote for Bronny in the whatever election it was that Latham was Labor Leader, I nearly gagged
