| Message | Thank you for compromising. The Republicans did not compromise, while you, even though you do not support our economic policies, gave us trade and finance. Obviously, this is a good cabinet, as we will be enacting our foreign policy. |

| Random fact: Cabinet ministers who disagree seriously with the head of government would usually be expected to resign. Parties within the cabinet may attempt to manoeuvre to replace the head of government though, for example by proposing a new cabinet bill or voting for an early election. |
