[Appleby] Cabinet, IKEA and an IKEA Cat
Sir Humphrey Appleby
Introducing IKEA Cat!
Good afternoon Britain!
As promised, I today reveal my cabinet. I have chosen based on who I think has the most potential for each ministry, based on their contributions on the forums and ideas towards furthering the productivity of their chosen ministries this January. There were a couple of close calls in some Ministries, so I have chosen to introduce a couple of Deputy Ministers to help assist the head of that Ministry. I am very confident that these individuals will prove themselves more than capable to carry out the tasks outlined in my Prime Ministerial manifesto.
Prime Minister – Sir Humphrey Appleby
Deputy Prime Minister – Daniel Thorrold
Minister of Defence - Artela
Minister of Home Affairs – Mr Woldy
Deputy Minister – Betafoxtrot
Minister of Media – Karacticus
Deputy Minister - GGRyan
Minister of Lulz - Horice P Fossil
Minister of Information – Stefan1992
Deputy Minister - Thomas765
Minister of Legislative Affairs – Darkmantle
Deputy Minister - KaisKais
Minister of Finance – Margaret H Thatcher
Minister of Foreign Affairs – Frerk
Deputy Minister – Keram10
Minister of Trade: Rory Winterborne
Deputy Minister – ProudtobeBritish23
Minister of Recruitment – deVillefort
Deputy Minister – Goku Jones
Minister of Technology - Draaglom
Apologies to those that applied but did not get accepted, hopefully next term you will be luckier. You can still gain valuable experience by applying to different ministries on the 6th, as well as helping out the country by signing on as an apprentice.

Finally finished with these bloody electoral articles. Oh, and vote SHA o/
im not in the cabinet? shame on you.
meh
needs moar boobies
^ not very inspiring... vote Frerk!
Well now, the result of last week's competition when we asked you to find a derogatory term for the Belgians. Well, the response was enormous and we took quite a long time sorting out the winners. There were some very clever entries. Mrs Hatred of Leicester Said 'let's not call them anything, let's just ignore them'. And a Mr St John of Huntingdon said he couldn't think of anything more derogatory than 'Belgians'. But in the end we settled on three choices: number three ... 'The Sprouts', sent in by Mrs Vicious of Hastings... very nice; number two..... 'The Phlegms', from Mrs Childmolester of Worthing; but the winner was undoubtedly from Mrs No-Supper-For-You from Norwood in Lancashire... 'Miserable Fat Belgian Bastards'!
Horice (:
(Love you really Frerk)
Don't worry Horice, I'm Dutch.
Oh Fuc.....i'm mixing you up with that Shadow fellow.
Horice ):
Darkmantle - I lol'd
also, Frerk over keram10? Really?
also, Ministry of Media - Kara and GGRyan, the most active people atm?
Now you say so... Why am I picked over Keram
Didn't Darkmantle just get involved with freezing out the NZ president from the NZ treasury?
Also, how can you both make taxes fairer and increase expenditure whilst we have a shrinking population? We aren't even top 20 anymore.
This seems very solid and reasonable.
What Daniecox said^
Looks like I'm voting for Frerk even tho i prefer your economics.
gluck!
Needs more votes...
More votes? I just added mine to make 621....
There was a hint of sarcasm in there. 🙂
Splendid! Good luck with your term in office, Sir Appleby!
Definitely not org-voted.
he bought votes
Naw, none of Frerk's were Org voted either.
*facepalm*
Three names that stand out: Beta for uM (rubbish by his own admission), Mantle (just stole from NZ treasury) and Goku for uM (would have picked him for Minister as he seems to have the most ideas).
No offence intended to anyone mentioned.
My god, vote for this man... he has Thatcher in his cabinet!
Pure sex!
Hai Appleby!
