| Message | For too long the Conservative Party and the National Commonwealth party have monopolised political power in this country and have governed together only to serve themsevles. This cabinet marks a new era for Likatonians. We will bring change to this country and restore pride in Likatonia. - Vernon Bowman, Leader in Congress |

| Message | OOC: Your party and the rest of the new "government" agree only in 40% of issues, I don't know think this will be something stable. It's your choice, I'm just trying a little roleplay in my choices |

| Message | The citizens of Likatonia have voted and their voices have been heard. Although it is well-known that the Environmentalist Party and my party don't agree on every issue, one issue on which we do agree is that the government's purpose is to serve the interests of the people of this nation, first and foremost. The best government is rarely the one that unilaterally pushes through large volumes of new policies. Discourse and compromise are not only helpful, but vital, to ensuring that the government is able to aptly serve the most people in the fairest way possible. Though it is well-known that we don't agree on every issue, The GNP fully supports the cabinet proposal put forth by the Environmentalist Party. Therefore, we are delighted to cast our "yes" vote and we look forward to working closely with the other parties in the upcoming years to continue guiding Likatonia down the path of virtue, prosperity, and freedom. Thank you, and God Bless, Helena Bourne, Leader in Congress |

| Message | OOC: Our parties are new, that's why. My party has only voted on 11 bills which the GNP has took part in and 5 which the Federalist Party has participated in. The Conservatives and Nationalist Commonwealth have voted on 140 bills - you've had much longer to work things out and, indeed, to stagnate the country. |

| Message | OOC: I have a feeling that the Federalist Party will go inactive so this is probably going to hold things up. |
