AUSTRALIA: Rudd’s party pie causes vomit fit - (The Sydney Morning Herald/AAP)
June 4, 2008 – 5:16 pmAustralian Prime Minister Kevin Rudd was cited as saying a party pie or something else savoury - not a dagwood dog - may have been responsible for a vomiting bug that felled him last month.
Mr Rudd was struck down with severe stomach pains hours after watching his beloved Brisbane Broncos beat the Wests Tigers in Sydney on May 3.
He recovered in time to speak at the NSW Labor conference the next day but looked unwell, sparking rumours the 50-year-old had suffered a minor heart attack.
