Gillard II government
The Gillard II government ruled Australia from September 14, 2010 to June 27, 2013. It was a Labor Party government .
Since December 3, 2007, a laboratory government ruled by Prime Minister Kevin Rudd . After a decline in the popularity of Rudd in the opinion polls, his deputy Julia Gillard challenged him and was elected the new Prime Minister by the Laboratory Group on June 24, 2010. In the early parliamentary elections on August 21, 2010 , Labor lost 11 seats and only got 72 of the 150 seats in the House of Representatives . Labor could only maintain a slim majority with the support of a member of the Greens and three independents. Julia Gillard remained Prime Minister of a laboratory government. When Gillard's popularity declined in 2013, Rudd challenged her and was elected new Prime Minister by the party on June 26, 2013.
