Message | Every single (active) party is included. Would this be feasible? |
Date | 09:47:45, September 09, 2005 CET | From | National People's Gang | To | Debating the Cabinet Proposal of March 2108 |
Message | Yes |
Date | 22:11:38, September 09, 2005 CET | From | CNT/AFL | To | Debating the Cabinet Proposal of March 2108 |
Message | Opposed, an Inclusive Cabinet is pointless unless it is enshrined in law, as soon as we lose power the Capitalists will not try to compromise their power by offering us cabinet positions. |
Date | 14:30:31, September 10, 2005 CET | From | National People's Gang | To | Debating the Cabinet Proposal of March 2108 |
Message | In the light of this proposal not even attracting comment from the parties on the right, we're likely to vote against but will refrain from voting either way until later. |
Date | 18:11:15, September 10, 2005 CET | From | Cooperative Commonwealth Federation | To | Debating the Cabinet Proposal of March 2108 |
Message | We are willing to support this if the Conservatives and TIC want this sort of cabinet. If they do not, of course, we will vote no: we would not wish to press any party into cabinet that had not agreed to serve. |
Date | 18:49:37, September 10, 2005 CET | From | Tuesday Is Coming | To | Debating the Cabinet Proposal of March 2108 |
Message | I agree to serve in this cabinet if the other parties are willing. However I feel that, as no "balanced" cabinets were passed under our majority(some were proposed, but not passed for whatever reasons), that there is no reason for TiC to be included in such a cabinet. The liberals of Lodamun have sat on the sidelines for quite some time, now it's their turn to play. |

Random fact: By default the head of government is the ultimate authority within a national government. In general terms, heads of government are expected to consult with cabinet colleagues (including those from other parties) before making significant decisions but they remain responsible for government action. |
