The story of how TLRP became so powerful
In the new Likatonian Government the Third Likatonian Republican Party have both the Defence and Foreign Affairs ministry even though they only have 4 seats in the Senate and diserve only 1 ministry. A former member of Likatonia First has come to us to explain why this is the case and how a great injustice was served. The story starts by the Moderates pushing for the opposition to unite to get into government. After arguements from the Likatonian Peoples League and Likatonia First both the Socialist People's Party and the Libertarian Nationalist party agreed to the cabinet. However the TLRP refused due to them only getting the Science department. They realised tghey had the balance of power and said they would go with the parties who would give them the most. After negations with the Moderates, the TRLP would be given Defence which they liked but then the LPL decided they should give them two departments to keep them onside. This deal stoped all hopes of fair representaion in the cabinet as now it was certain that they were to be given two departments. In this cabinet they were proposied to be given Defence and Science. This deal look promising until the SPP, which took over negoating from Mod, said they could do better than that and would give them Defence nd Internal Affairs. This means that they would have more positions in the big 6 than a party with roughly 4 times as meany seats and 6 times as many seats. This in the whisleblowers eyes is a terrible deal for democray and shows that a party with the balance of power can get whatever they want and this can be shown by what Likatonia First did next. LPL gave them the right to negotate a new cabinet so they did. What they gave them was the parties dream, Foreign Affairs and Defence. This is definatly the wost cabinet in the eyes of the whistleblower as it gives the TLRP all of the power they want and is ashamed to be part of a party who negotated this deal. He thought the press should know about it and thas why he came to us at Likatonian News. LF and LPL hapily agreed to this which most backbenchers thought was terrible for each party. However in these deals no party is safe as allof them would have had to agree to overepresentation of a party in their cabinet which means they are all as bad as eachother. Now that the whistleblower has told the stroy we will have to wait to see how events evolve.
