Latin language of love for Liberal-lurker Latham

Mr Latham, who is presenting a piece for 60 Minutes this Sunday, then Rosetta Stone approached the Opposition Leader as he was set to leave the room. With the second of his controversial "handshake interviews", Mr Latham pressed Mr Abbott about his role in Pauline Hanson's conviction, as well as western Sydney's population pressures.

The pair shook hands before Mr Latham quizzed Mr Abbott about any role he may have had in the 03 imprisonment of Pauline Hanson. Ive interviewed Pauline Hanson and wed like to know, are you willing to apologise for your role in putting her in a prison, Mr Rosetta Stone Spanish Latin Latham said. I dont think that a fair assessment of my role, Mr Abbott responded. Mr Latham went on to ask the Liberal leader about his immigration policy. I was encouraged at the start of the campaign when you and your spokesperson Scott Morrison said you would be slashing the migration program. But then it turned out youve just got the same target as the Gillard government. Mr Latham's presence clearly upset some of the veterans with one yelling: "Piss off, Latham, this isn't about you!" However, Mr Latham said another veteran offered his support, backing his confrontation with Prime Minister Julia Gillard at the weekend and quoting Latin to the effect of "Tell them all to go and get stuffed." Later, at a press conference where reporters were quizzing Mr Abbott on a Labor promise to fund 80 per cent of a new passenger rail link between Parramatta and Epping, Mr Latham again intervened. Labelling the 14-kilometre link the Maxine McKew Rosetta Stone American English memorial rail line, the former Labor leader asked about the likelihood of a new rail for Sydney south-west, where he lives.
