Foucauldian Fortitude Party declines participation in unity cabinetUSA, DT, RMS, SLD and CFP would form the new cabinetMAGRATHEA, FEBRUARY 2951,
In a statement today in the National Soviet of the Socialist Republic, the Foucauldian Fortitude Party declined participation in a "unity cabinet", stating that "We [FFP] are loath to participate in a cabinet that includes stalwart Leftist League members; as such, we must decline this particular invitation". FFP also stated that the "instability brought on by our party's last participation in a "unity cabinet"" gives them "pause with regards to this proposal."
The 'unity cabinet' referred to there was the "United Ikradon Coalition" of the mid-to-late 2920's and early-to-mid 2930's, alongside USA and the DT. A period where many FFP-members, especially those in the youth-wing named Ikradonian Freedom Alliance, grew disgruntled at the FFP and it's chairperson R.E. Karl, that ultimately led to Karl being unseated in 2938 after several protest by the IFA.

The other parties of Ikradon are working on the details of the cabinet now, mainly on who get's what. The new so-called "SocCom Union" cabinet aims to unite all the socialist and communist parties of Ikradon. This will be the first time in government for the Social & Liberal Democrats, and this would be the continuation of the Dark Templar's participation in government since 2911, where they took part in the Leftist League Coalition with the National Worker's Party and the Progressive Party.
