[Appleby] Notice of Intent, Cabinet and a Cat.gif
Sir Humphrey Appleby
Good morning gentlemen o/,
First things first, a grateful thanks to the good people of UKRP & ESO who may be surprised to find me as their CP candidate.
This was heroically achieved without the need for a fair democratic process after successfully trolling that TUP is a national threat and must not be allowed power at all costs. Nicking the treasury, giving us Keers & Kravenn and generally being an easy target to name but a few of their many, many transgressions…
And now onto the formulaic filler CP manifesto we all love and cherish:-
[Paragraph of generic ‘let’s rebuild the eUK hurr durr’]
[Paragraph of generic ‘I did dis, n’ bug****red off]
[Random Silly Picture To Break the Sheer Monotony of Text HERE]
[Paragraph of generic jingoistic trash for the random serbs in British Patriots]
[Paragraph of generic programs we’re already doing, they’ll stay, etc]
[Cat gif]
Having saved ourselves a good 20/30mins of the usual waffle, let’s talk business. I’ve asked the best and brightest from around the eUK if they want to muck about for a term, and to my surprise, all are game. As a bonus plot twist I’d even pegged Wayne to nick and systemically blow up the MoD, at least until his better half reminded him he’s off cruising with Grampa Alfag for the month…
So with the nefarious ringleaders of the unofficial opposition sailing off into the sunset I hope you’ll join me in despair at our proposed government for February:-
Prime Minister & Co-MoD - Paul T
Minister of Defence – Chaz
Minister of Finance – Huey
Minister of Forig Affairs – Aaron
Minister of Education – Voodoo
I genuinely believe we have the best man for the job in each of these roles – they have years of active experience across the whole of government and I’m confident they’d do a brilliant job in the many tasks ahead.
If you’d like to potentially join us in gov for the month then please do drop me a message, unless you’re another Ajay we’d probably love to have you. In the next couple of days we’ll be discussing realistic goals we want to set each department beyond simply what we want to keep n suchlike.
Cheers lads o7,
Appleby

If the best people for the ministerial jobs have been picked, why hasn't that happened for CP?
Will the real CP MVP please stand up ..
Isn't the best CP not the one who hs the best People around him?
Nobody rules alone, the Keys are the People that are in place doing what they are best at for the Country.
A Leader recognizes this and Lets then freely do their work in their terrain.
A CP needs help to push a few in-game buttons?
I never thought that Appleby was that dumb as to need help but as you seen to know him well ...

Begs the question, "how do you know what CP's or members of Congress can and can't do?"
Unless you're just guessing for the sake of a good moan. In which case, carry on.
@VodooMike71
So you're saying that being CP is more than pushing a few buttons?
The only thing more is meta which isn't needed to play the game.
It seems that meta exists solely to provide some sort of achievement for those players that really should get out more in RL.
but without meta you wouldn't have a reason for existing Sexa
Neither would you, Humphs.
Oddly enough, it looks very similar to Ash Brandon's proposed Cabinet... the best people around him!
Pushing buttons is the least part of being CP. Indeed, I was CP under the dictatorship and had no buttons to press. But there was still plenty to do.
In my experience 75% of your time as CP is spent dealing with wars and foreign affairs: war, avoiding war, helping allies in their wars, and securing help for our own wars. None of that is "meta" - most of it is admin and strategy (and - in my case - article writing as well).
Are you going to steal the treasury again like you did in the past?
absolutely
Who would be the CP in your cabinet?
Ash Brandon

I find your cat gif, promoting inter cat racism. You should immediately print a retraction and set aside 200k cc in funds to help educate cats in not picking on other cats based on their fur colour.
"Paragraph of generic programs we’re already doing"
Programs? Surely you mean programmes?
American spy exposed!
I, ...
err
>_>
Would Wales still retain its First Minister that's what the people really care about
If the government of Saudi Arabia is prepared to drop off a few brown envelops I'm sure we can talk business...
You have successfully donated 0.01 GBP. If the user accepts, the amount will appear shortly in the citizen account.
Please Appleby, make it happen!
YOU DID A TERrible job this month though ;P
Is Wales now Liberated?
Please be reminded the job is for a whole month not just 1 week.
To be fair, Apples lasted at least 9 days last time before Poke Mongo stole him away
Good luck
Better that Ash Who Brandon (just)
glorious praise
Great .gif

Oh. I meant help out as in...help out lol. Wayne deserves to be MoD imho
he's ******* off to the canaries and none of us are remotely envious with this weather
I'll be here to hold your hand for a week or so. You are a big boy, you can handle a week without me bro!
Good luck mate!

looking forward to another month of working together if you stay on as Canada's MoFA 🙂
MoFA or not I'll be around 😃
MoFA is a bit of a fail. AMD ain't covered himself in glory with the role lately.
Harsh you weren't here for my highlights
I can only judge from when I've been here. In the 3 months that I've been back, I don't think a MoFA article has been published. Even though there has been ample chance to do so... you know, like joining an alliance.
Step it up AMD, I'll be in the cabinet this term and rest assured, you'll be badgered day and night (you'll get a weeks break) if you ain't pulling your weight.
What highlights?
There hasn't even been an MoFA article for 5 months.
Oh yeah, it's all supar sekrit, I forgot about that, my bad...
problem is nobody else seems to want it these days
I would personally get no greater pleasure than to fire Aaron in the most sadistically creative way possible - but it would be cutting the nose to spite the face
rest assured though if there aren't regular updates I may get my wish 😛
I mentioned many years ago that the MoD and MoFA should be heavily connected, ideally the same guys. When/if he fails, I'm sure me, Chaz and Pauly will step in for you in that area 😉
in the old days it actually was - there was a senior Minister responsible for coordinating both in tangent
the last time both ministries were unified was under my last term with Saville as MoDaFA if I remember right -
but tbh the best way forward is cabinet working as a group to sorting out issues as opposed to Ministers only focusing on their own department
Yeah, I've never been a fan of 'Your this, so you can only do that' kind of cabinet.
I just let my cabinet do as they pleased. As long as you have guys that understand the narrative, everything will be rosy.
I still ain't voting for you though. If Zaphod wins, I get 0.5g...
tbh the four horsemen of the apocalypse are more likely an occurrence than your vote for me at this stage 😛
Well with us in MoD, the Four Horsemen could make an appearance...
remind me to send off that cannabis club membership card...
Looking forward to being in a cabinet with Wayne.
