So the minister of international relations cannot summon the ambassadors?
Interesting...

It's not a coalition.
We're just letting Sir William Buttersworth in the cabinet.

Meaning that the government is made up of members of more than one party. It is therefore a coalition.

If, hypothetically speaking, there were more members of Ostentia First they might not necessarily be in the cabinet.
The agreement isn't with Ostentia First, it's with Sir William Buttersworth.
ERGO, no coalition.

There is a difference between having cabinet members and having a coalition. Even if all the members are in the cabinet, they're still in the opposition...

I mark Miniplenty doubleplusungood. I mark Miniluv doubleplusungood.
Why?
You have to pick someone other than yourself for these positions.

Not true actually. There are no rules against pluralism, either in Ostentia or the UK.
Cieran - January 29, 2009 08:09 PM (GMT)
I filled about four roles last time. You can't fill five roles with a cabinet of three...

Indeed
I myself have managed to be Waffler, MP, Opposition leader, MPC, Head of the Royalist party(Exilia) and First Lord of the Admiralty(Exilia) simulatneously without incident.

In the days of the LMIATPEFO, was there not a one man cabinet?
Sir William Buttersworth - January 29, 2009 10:36 PM (GMT)
Whilst I am still the Chairman of Ostentia First, I have contracted my services to the Boo Party because of my vastly superior Foreign Affairs skills.

Only between 2 other nations.
We can still stand at the side line and tut tut to ourselves.
Plus, foreign affairs encompasses foreign trade and exploration.
