Is it the actuall latch that is loose?  There is a spacer washer behind it.  Is it still there?

yea washer is still there, when you try to shut it  takes at least 2 pennies to get it close to tight .with no spacers the latch is about an 1/8 away from the latch plate

Make sure the hinges and frame are tight. If so replace your weather stripping.
