| Message | A strong centre-right coalition cabinet that takes into account the president's party first and then the number of seats each other party has. |

| Message | Dear Mr Horncastle, Well, we thought three cabinet positions for 125 seats out of a 454-seat block seemed more than reasonable. However, we are always open to compromise and seeing as you are now de-activating the Left Wing Bloc there is more scope for this. We thank you for this move. Please propose another cabinet - but please take into account the Defence role for my party. If this is acceptable we will vote yes immediately and move forward together. Yours Faithfully, Xirtes Fisk |
