You appointed a Shadow Minister for the Study of End-times? I learned that in Philosophy :D.

Also, I would appoint a cabinet, I know who I'm having, but I can't. Due to me not having actually been invited for form a government yet >_>...

And now "running the country" is the least important position...

Interesting...

Edit: hang on...

OBJECTION!

pokemaniac john is not currently an MP and as such cannot occupy a position in the shadow cabinet.

Is it in the constitution?

Please note that I haven't actually checked, and it could well be.

Well no it isn't, because there was no point in it being in there until now. It should be though.

Making it a complete irrelevance at the moment.

Therefore he is allowed in.

Can't meet the current stringent criteria for shadow cabinet positions?

Apply for a Sub-Prime position from only 3 Votes Per Session (V.P.S.)

For only 3 votes along party lines during a session get a position in the shadow cabinet!

Small Print

[size0]Votes along party lines not valid for statement motions.
Whip votes not included in V.P.S.
Whip votes are defined to be Emergency Powers Motions, Motions of confidence and declarations of war.
Cabinet Member may choose which bills to repay votes on.
Penalty for non-payment is a vote to repeal the Declaration of International Neutrality.

In all fairness, yes he is. I don't think there's anything banning it (CC0, you know best as ever, without PJ around).

It is fairly strange to create departments though...
