Kevin Rudd on Mark Latham after the "Latham Diaries":
I think people right across, those who are members of the party, who support the party and want to see us form the next Government of Australia would've expected better of a former leader of the Australian Labor Party.
I can't recall in our party's history when someone has turned on those who gave him support in the way in which Mark has done.
I mean, reflect for a moment just on this: in Mark's whole career, I don't think there is a single job that he held from the time he left university, which wasn't in some way connected with or supported by the Australian Labor Party.
I think the party has actually treated Mark pretty well through his life so far. It'd be good if some of that was returned by Mark to the party which has supported him for so long.
