| Message | This is my last attempt to get a Cabinet that seems to be reasonably capable of working with each other on most themes. If this doesn't go through, I will consider proposing a more radical alliance. It is past the time that we had a cabinet that is representative of our government, rather than being representative of what the balance of power used to be like decades ago. |

| Message | We are really getting sick and tired of proposing cabinet after cabinet, only for not all of the parties included in the proposals voting for them.... |

| Message | We are really getting sick and tired of proposing cabinet after cabinet, only for not all of the parties included in the proposals voting for them.... Okay, I'm going to make at least two seperate Cabinet proposals.... I will give everyone a day to look at them... Please indicate whether or not you are FOR, or AGAINST... Whichever one has the FULL support of all parties mentioned in it, gets to be sent to the vote.... In fact, no, bugger it... I'm going to propose at least two bills and send them to the vote tonight. I will then hold off my own vote, until everyone else votes during your day/evening over there. When I come back to check them on Monday, my time, whichever one has the votes, gets mine. |

| Message | I would suggest reproposing this cabinet again tommorrow. Trying to pass a cabinet bill on the weekend never works. The only thing I will suggest about the new one is give GHP the defence ministry. |

| Message | Okay, then, but if it doesn't work next time, our patience will have been exhausted. I will propose several Cabinets and act as a "Kingmaker". |
