Aussie politician calls former chums 'A-grade arseholes': BBC

[emad]

The former leader of Australia's opposition Labor Party, Mark Latham, has hit out at several past colleagues, calling them "A-grade arseholes".

In his newly published biography, Mr Latham also described his successor, Kim Beazley, as a "stand-for-nothing".

Mr Latham, who was criticised inside the party for Labor's crushing election defeat last year, is well known for his outbursts of vulgar language.

He resigned as leader in January, citing health reasons.
