Australian Prime Minister Julia Gillard shakes hands with Opposition Leader Tony Abbott ahead of the first leaders' debate at the National Press Club on July 25, 2010 in Canberra, Australia. Gillard and Abbott will go head-to-head in what is expected to be the only debate prior to the August 21 federal election. The debate was brought forward from its traditional time of 7:30pm to avoid a clash with the popular cooking show MasterChef.
