- University fees could rise by 25pc: Nelson. 05/12/2003. ABC News Online:

- NEWS.com.au | Latham enemies get personal (December 5, 2003) / NEWS.com.au | Beware glass houses (December 5, 2003) (Tony Abbott throwing stones at Mark Latham). The Liberals must be scared of Latham; if they weren't, they'd have just ignored him. On this topic though... I really don't see why Latham's bitter ex-wife has suddenly been given front-page billing. Has anyone verified anything she has said? Is every other pollies' ex-partner going to be interviewed? There must be plenty of ex-husbands and -wives to go with all the politicians; let's give all of them the opportunity to have a bitch about their failed marriage on national television. Because it's just so fucking interesting.
