THE PRIME MINISTER

Only days after swooping in and grabbing the Primeministership from K.Rudd, Julia Gillard found herself in front of the lens and being cross examined by Mondos Grant Matthews.

The story grabbed the medias attention and Grant even found himself in the newspaper! Check out some of the news and behind the scenes shots here, here and here. The issue is on shelves now.
