Britain's David Cameron takes power; Brown out

Britain's Prime Minister Gordon Brown (R) stands with Conservative Party leader David Cameron and Liberal Democrat leader Nick Clegg during a Victory in Europe (VE) day ceremony in central London May 8, 2010. Clegg sought backing from senior party members on Saturday for a possible deal with the Conservatives after an election in which no party won an outright majority. The centre-right Conservatives under Cameron won the most parliamentary seats in Thursday's election but need the support of other parties to form a stable government that can tackle a record budget deficit.

Britain's Prime Minister Gordon Brown, wearing a Sky News microphone, speaks to local resident Gillian Duffy, 65, while campaigning for Britain's May 6 General Election in Rochdale, England, Wednesday April 28, 2010. Brown was caught on microphone describing a voter he had just spoken to - apparently Duffy - as a "bigoted woman". The comments were made as he got into his car, not realising that he had the microphone pinned to his jacket. He told an aide: "That was a disaster - they should never have put me with that woman. Whose idea was that? It's just ridiculous..." Asked what she had said, he replied: "Everything, she was just a bigoted woman."(AP Photo< Lewis Whyld-pa) **UNITED KINGDOM OUT: NO SALES: NO ARCHIVE:** (AP)
