| Message | As you wish, but then when it will be possible to give Head of State some special powers we should grant him |

| Message | Absolutely. The power to hold elections whenever the HoS wants would be a good one. I was going to suggest that making the HoS and HoG would still be a good idea. However, that could easily mean that Randomist infiltration could secure the most powerful position for a counter-revolutionary or a fool. |

| Message | We will not support the integration of Head of State and Head of Government as this is a step along the road to giving one party too much power. At present we are undecided over who can present cabinets, we feel that letting all parties supply them leaves the government open to hijack by many smaller minority parties, such as the randomists. Is there an allowance to ensure the larger parties can but smaller ones cannot? |

| Message | Cabinet proposals still need 50% of the assembly to vote in favour for their passage, so hijacking is not really a worry. |
