Of course, if there were two left wing parties, a new election would be wonderful. A coalition between the CPB and the Labor Party would be much more in line with the majority of the votes then a coalition between the CPB and the Libertarians.

Meh, effectively the same thing happened in TRP's AAR - a big party pulled a small party with it, resulting in a disproportionate share of lefties in the government, so you're not being singled out or anything, these kinds of things happen...

... commies.

The Blimpist charter for joining a government (reject it and risk not governing):

- First of all, any government hoping to count on Blimpist support must promise to leave His Majesty the King, the House of Lords and the Nobility as they are. No cutting power, no extra taxes, no removal of peerages.

- No self-determination for the peoples in the Empire, we know whats best for them.

- The armed forces need agressive expansion, and we should use them to smash our enemies to further peace.

- The British way of life is the pinnacle of human acchievement and should be actively encouraged across the world. The Germans must know the joy of drinking tea, the French must know fish-'n'-chips are superiourto their haute cuisine, the Italians should know tweed andbolwerhats look better than their degenerate fashion. Therefore we demand funds being made available to export our culture and way of life.

- We should give that cornerstone of British society, the Colonels, a tax exemption.

We of the Blimpist party know that we have no choice but to governm with misguided, slightly continental people these days, but we will not joina government not adhering to the above mentioned points.

All of those demands are completely acceptable, indeed some are in our own manifestos and party descriptions. If our coalition could give you all of those five points, I assume you'd become the Chief of Staff for us?

I think it best that this rightist coalition be formed and the next election be held under one man, one vote. Does this meet with your approval, Tommy4ever and the Rightists? After all, with 49% of the house, a new election will be needed soon anyway. (IN HELL)

I think perhaps the best voting system would be OMOV for 80% of the votes, with a further 20% to be determined by the host (I am he) based on the strength and quality of the campaign, and thus representing the huddled masses. It would also encourage some nice politiking, which I think we all love. Objections/erections?

Fine by me. That way I'll have the time to prepare my own voterbase from some random spot to come here, vote, and never be seen again, as well.

Can I also ask that we not let this degenerate into arguing. It is only a game, after all. Besides, I will punish any irregularities ingame as I see fit, so DON'T TEMPT ME FRODO.

Can you not just look at the final vote tally from the last election by just using people's first choice votes?

If I'm honest I cba doing another election so soon after the last one and would drop out if we have to do a whole new election.

In that case, is your coalition formed or will the Communists govern in a minority?

I think it's best we have the first 2 years and then change it, or we'll never get anywhere.

For all I know, the coalition is formed. If hobopuppy or dutchie think of this differently, then let them speak out, otherwise, the new cabinet will be:

Me: PM
Deadly_virus: Chancellor
FlyingDutchie: Chief of Staff
Hobopuppy: Minister of the Interior (or Internal Affairs, whichever you prefer)
Hoi2geek: Foreign Minister

Please oh please allow me to post the programme at least tomorro or something, it's 10 PM on New Years' Eve. :(

This coalition looks good for me.
