| Message | Thanks Alexander. I'd say she will remains in post. I think the President trusts her on the economy - you only have to look at his backing for her tax reforms two years ago. I expect she will get the nod from the Premier and when he propose this cabinet to Congress she will receive the backing there too. |

| Message | Well, I see the Republicans receiving a senior role at least. They are long term partners of the Patriots and they have always figure high up. Foreign or defence perhaps? Alexander, I think we should also remind viewers that all these announcements are provisional and will require the approval of Congress to ratify them - but as long as they receive the backing from the parties in the coalition they should get the majority in the House they need. |

| Message | Breaking News.. We now go over to the reporter Steven Davies who is outside the Presidential Palace with some breaking news. Steven... Thank you. Well, just when we thought things were taking a while to resolve we now know exactly why... I can exclusively reveal that Popular Consensus a key ally of the President has collapsed and their 20 Congresspeople will not take up their seats in the house. Now, this means that any cabinet positions offered to them will have to be re-distributed, which surely means a bigger stake for the free market Centrist Party who are anticipated to join the coalition. So when President Moriarty says he is taking his time to get it right for the country he means he is having to come to terms with one big headache. Back to the studio... |
