Julia Gillard - YOU GO GIRL !!!













U.S. President Barack Obama offered his congratulations to Gillard on Thursday saying in a statement that he looks forward to working with the new prime minister "across the broad range of issues on which the United States and Australia currently enjoy strong and deep cooperation."

Gillard becomes Australia's first female prime minster.
She was born in Barry Wales UK, so that South Walean Town is over the Moon at the moment, that one of their own has become the first Female Australian PM.
Julia Gillard  who was originally from Wales in the UK  emigrated to Australia under the "Ten Pound Pom" scheme in 1966. This was an Australian immigration initiative to encourage British workers to emigrate to Australia. As a child Julia Gillard suffered from chronic pneumonia. Following doctor's advice to her parents that she should move to a warmer climate the Gillard family decided to move to Australia.
Julia Gillard had the following to say after becoming Prime Minister:
"I think if there's one girl who looks at the TV screen over the next few days and says 'Gee, I might like to do that in the future', well that's a good thing,"
Gillard has been promoted rapidly since entering parliament in 1998 when she was criticised for being single and childless. Gillard had decided to push to oust the leader after a recent report in the Sydney Morning Herald stated that Rudd and his chief of staff Alister Jordan had tried to sound out backbench support for Rudd. A recent Herald/Nielsen poll also showed that the Government would now lose a General Election.

  1. For a ruling political leader to declare publicly, that whilst they greatly respect other people’s religious views, they do not believe in God – even though “I grew up in the Christian church, a Christian background. I won prizes for catechism, for being able to remember Bible verses. I am steeped in that tradition, but I’ve made decisions in my adult life about my own views”, seems terribly arrogant indeed.

    Terribly arrogant and sad of Miss Gillard (Australia’s first female Prime Minister) to openly declare that she knows God – but she doesn’t need Him. But then again it begs asking if The Prime Minister personally KNOWS GOD or just ‘about’ Him’?
