Loner

the long version

The day Mark Latham became leader of the Labor Party, the pace of Australian politics fired up. A year later this loner would resign from the Parliament a broken figure. What happened in those twelve months to turn the country's most dynamic political performer into a sick and embattled man. This is the story of that dramatic year, the gut-wrenching personal dramas, the plots and intrigues, the loyalties betrayed and a set of demons Mark Latham couldn't keep at bay.
