| Message | "The LCC have attempted no negotiations, given no reason for the change, no explanation, no debate. It is their responsibility to PROPOSE a cabinet, not to impose one and complain when they do not get their way. They can either command a majority of the House or they cannot." Mykail Rafferty, Unionist Leader |

| Message | ~OFFICIAL LCC STATEMENT~ What about this cabinet isn't compromise? What about this cabinet is wrong? The reason for change is that we feel that the people voted in the CNP and LCC to the legistlative branch, and they deserve to have the presence of those two parties in the executive branch. |

| Random fact: When forming a cabinet, try to include as few parties as possible, while still obtaining a majority of the seats. |
| Random quote: The Wolfsheim Virus is not a real actual disease in the conventional medical sense of the term. Rather, it is a cluster of symptoms which are just part of the general socio-economic disease that is capitalism. The main symptoms the sufferers are experiencing are a direct result of capitalist poverty, as in malnutrition, poor housing and so on, combined with psycho-somatic symptoms which are a direct consequence of the contradictions and stresses which are inherent to the capitalist system. ~ Friedrich Pfeiffer, General Secretary of the Dorvish Communist Party |
