CANBERRA, AUSTRALIA – JUNE 24: Newly appointed Australian Prime Minister Julia Gillard (R) stands with her partner Tim Mathieson at Government House on June 24, 2010 in Canberra, Australia. Gillard demanded a ballot as party support for Former Prime Minister Kevin Rudd collapsed. However no votes were cast in the caucus held this morning at 09:00 AEST, as Rudd conceded and stood down, making Gillard Australia’s first female Prime Minister, with current treasurer Wayne Swan moving into the role of Deputy.
