The nation has shaken its head today, as it remembers that Mark Latham was almost elected as the Prime Minister of Australia.

This comes after the man responsible for the most famous handshake in Australia history announced that he will be joining the very thin ranks of One Nation this morning.

Latham will run for NSW Parliment and lead the state branch of One Nation.

The former leader of the Labor Party has told reporters that he is thinking about taking time out of his busy schedule out of bashing taxi drivers and abusing people on Twitter to cast himself back into public life.

This announcement is a scary reminder to the country, that the man who viciously trolled anti-violence campaigner and Australian of The Year Rosie Batty out of the public spotlight, almost surged to beat John Howard in the election of 2004, in what could have been an incredible moment for the country.

The realisation has come after years of watching the maverick commentator both explode and implode across a variety of mediums.

Latham however, who had been banned from ever rejoining the Labor party, told our reporters that the nation has no idea how much better off it would have been with him steering the ship.

“This country’s gone fucking mad,” he said to us over the phone.

“Cultural Marxism. Political Correctness. Feminazis. Wake up you fucking clowns. We are heading towards becoming like a Soviet state dictatorship.”

“But I’m back. Let me tell you that. I’m ready to save this country from divisive identity politics by dividing people based upon their identity.”

“Besides, I need to get elected because I’m gonna have a very big fucking legal bill to pay in a couple of months because of that defamation shit.”
