Australia's Prime Minister Julia Gillard speaks at the national press club in Canberra, Australia, Thursday, July 15, 2010. Australia's government bolstered its economic credentials ahead of looming elections by releasing new treasury data Wednesday that showed its reversal on a promised mining tax had not diminished its budget forecasts. The latest figures are even better than the treasury's last budget outlook, released in May, which showed Australia's finances would be back in surplus in the 2012-13 fiscal year despite billions of dollars in government stimulus spending to avoid recession. The improvement, largely due to soaring prices for Australian energy and mineral exports, is expected to come despite Prime Minister Julia Gillard abandoning plans to introduce a 40 percent tax on mining companies' burgeoning profits.(AP Photo/Mark Graham)

澳洲总理吉拉德周三(1月30日)出人意料地提前宣佈,今年9月14日為大選日期。吉拉德在記者會上解釋說,提前宣佈日期是為使2013年獲得一種「形式和秩序」,所有各方均能從容做準備,「尋求平靜的和理性的咨詢」,不致過於匆忙投入選戰。迄今,澳洲政府的慣例是,在投票前數周才公佈投票日期,以盡可能縮短選戰期。吉拉德所在的工黨有可能在下屆大選中失利。最新民意調查結果顯示,在野的保守黨將贏得大選。澳洲本届議會將於8月12日解散。
