 You don't need to be an 'investor' to invest in Singletrack: 6 days left: 95% of target - Find out more
Recent economy, politics, we're-all-doomed threads on the STW chat forum suggest that many STWers are actually quite clever and actually have valuable things to say. The problem is, I don't think Dave reads the forum... so aren't we just weeing in the wind here?
If only we could use our super powers for good...
That got me thinking - if STW was a political party, who would be in your cabinet?
what is a normal cabinet made up of that i'd need to pick people for?
Any of these really....
Prime Minister [warning: smoothness required]
Chancellor
Home Office
Defence
Work & Pensions
Health
Education
Transport
Environment
I volunteer to be Paymaster General. That sounds like a cool position. 🙂
Prime Minister: binners.... its fun to blame binners.
Chancellor: yeti, he works on a computer with spreadsheets you know.
Home Office: emsz, its a wimminz job to keep things clean around the home/office isnt it?
Defence: ton, fish pie for anyone who binners doesnt like.
Work & Pensions: stoner, he'a already retired so he must be good at that kinda thing.
Health: iDave, its time we had a skinny generation of kids.
Education: bullheart, he's a deputy head and has a kid on the way, so not only does he know his stuff but could do with another promotion.
Transport: peterpoddy, capable of riding bikes, motorbikes and driving cars.
Environment: TJ, he knows stuff about bananas any everything!
Elfin for The Arts.
Sounds neat. Oh, there's a Chief Whip position going too, if you're interested Phil!
sounds sexy, and i'm quite qualified for being sexy. i'm assuming its a sexy role?
Oh it's a sexy role alright... if you enjoy being all dominant and spanky.
i'm guessing it involves persuading people to do things? i'm quite good at that, oh and did i mention i'm sexy?
Can I baggsie the Minister without Portfolio role. Always wanted to get highly paid but have no responsibilities 🙂

Everyone welcome. Welcome aboard!
Sweet- can I start linning my pockets now or di I have to wait? Who's got the expenses and travel forms?
Well, Binners hasn't formally accepted the PM position yet, so let's not be hasty. And even when he does he'll have to chat to the Queen about it first.
Seven, patience. Pocket lining can wait... 😀
It's all coming together. We have:
Prime Minister: binners.... its fun to blame binners.
Chancellor: yeti, he works on a computer with spreadsheets you know.
Home Office: emsz, its a wimminz job to keep things clean around the home/office isnt it?
Defence: ton, fish pie for anyone who binners doesnt like.

Minister without Portfolio: seven, who's going to be highly paid for doing diddly squat
Paymaster General: Camo16: it's the only way I'm going to be a General

A few places left up for grabs:
Minister for Wales: Don Simon?

Minister for Northern Ireland: ilovemygears isn't around any more, is he?
Minister for Women and Equality:
Now I've even got a slogan:
The STW Party
More opinions than you can shake a stick at. And boy do we like to shake sticks
surely it should be
[i]The STW Party
More opinions than you can shake a pair of Bombers at at. And boy do we like to wee in shoes [/i]
its the law that 'Party' always follows the word 'Sexy' if i'm involved in the project.
iDave; minister for sport
Junkyard; Science minister

So Flashheart is Miss Moneypenny.
I've been to France a couple of times on holiday, and worked in Germany for a bot. Any chance that would qualify me to be something to do with Europe?
You know it, Jamie! 🙂
Can I have Minister of Agruculture and Fisheries please?
(in a "I'll bung you one, if you bung me one, nudge nudge" kindaway)
worked in Germany for a [b]bot[/b].
was going to ask, but don't think I'll bother
Can I be minister in charge of the handouts for cleaning moats and renting porn on sky.?
I want Science.
Who's foreign secretary?
Mark or Drac for chief whip.
i like the sound of a foreign secretary.... sounds sexy in a cheap and tacky porn sort of way.
molgrips for 'minister of trying to enforce new running techniques'
you may want science Molgrips but I have been chosen.
Ok what you swapping it for ?
I'm going to be really honest...
If you give me the job of Minister for Education, I'm going to change the National Curriculum to include subjects such as Top Gun studies, sexology and freestyle limbo.
A vote for me is a vote for lunacy.
Ok what you swapping it for ?
There are no SWAPS!
Plus, Phil, you can't be Foreign Secretary because you're chief whip.
That has BEEN DECIDED!
Honestly people, let's save the country not bicker amongst ourselves!
Like the motto:
