| Message | You mean sir, that you don't see your party present, which is no different from a cabinet put together by you, which excludes the largest party, us. This is a unifying coalition for the benefit of the people. |
| Date | 20:07:07, August 17, 2007 CET | From | Hobrazian Peoples Party | To | Debating the Cabinet Proposal of April 2443 |
| Message | We have commitments to the Front Bench parties and as such can't let any of them out in our cabinet proposals. We do not wish to either. We believe it is very well known that the FPoH and the HPP have a history and do not get along well. Therefore you are excluded. Isn't it better to have a working cabinet that can cooperate in leading the nation, than to fit in the largest party just because they are the largest? Also, any cabinet must be approved by 50% +1 of the Senate which in union will be the largest party (coallition). So don't get to powerhungry and claim a spot like it is FPoH's to own, just because they fill the most seats. We have no regulation and segregation on party seats in the Senate restaurant as we recall, should this also be implemented to fit the party sizes? |
