A very sad little Oz political story.
But I loved Leunig's cartoon commentary on the tale so much I've posted it to 2 A2K forums.

Mr Latham, emerging from hiding after a concerted campaign by Labor premiers to end the federal leadership crisis, surprised colleagues by announcing he would also leave Parliament to "look after my health and pursue a normal life" outside politics.
