Description[?]:
| Including the patriotic parties in a coalition government that secures a majority. The ALF have been given the two posts that they wanted, along with two minor posts. The WPP have been given the bulk of the posts they currently hold. The CPP, whom the NF believe to be the more moderate of he four parties in question, have been given the Foreign Ministry as we feel that they will be our best representatives abroad. Lastly the NF have chosen one position, that of Lawspeaker. Although we are not the largest party in the coalition, we are the proposer, and have only asked for this one position and hope the other parties do not mind. In the interests of having a government, and keeping the left out, we hope this cabinet is suitable. ooc: The WPP have not been on in over a day, that could be problematic. |

| Random quote: "A democracy that does not allow limits is not a democracy. Just as a limitless freedom is not freedom, but prevarication. Indeed, any theory of freedom worthy of this name is first of all a limit theory. If we extend the unlimited tolerance even to those who are intolerant, if we are not willing to defend a tolerant society against the attacks of the intolerants, then the tolerants will be destroyed and the tolerance with them! Because, I ask to myself and ask you, given a certain system that we call democratic, which is today the best possible system to allow everyone to live freely and to be able to express their own thoughts, how can the same system admit attacks against its integrity? How can a system refuse the principle of the self-preservation? For this reason, to suppress the apologetics of thalerrism, it's for this reason that the exaltation of exegetes, principles, facts or methods of Thallerism and its anti-democratic aims does not constitute a violation of the freedom of manifestation of thought, but, on the contrary, the celebration of that freedom. The protection of the first premise on which a modern democratic system is based. And this premise must be safeguarded also and above all against itself and its abuses." ~ Malik Astori, Leadership of Liberty and Progress (Istalia) |
