and on a side note, I dont think any government employs offers a position as party "Environmentalist", it may be more likely they are minister for the environment.

Prime Minister: Dave Mohammed
Deputy Prime Minister: Jamie Lyon
Propaganda chief: Dan Brown
Environmentalist: Haile Gebrselassie
Foreign negotiator: Michael Vaughan


By popular demand, the two greatest humans on Earth take the reigns. Dan Brown can write any old bollocks and get people to read it, so he's handling my propaganda. Not sure exactly what official role "environmentalist" comes under, but Gebrselassie is my minister for transport and will replace every car with a pair of trainers ASAP. That's envionmental enough isn't it? And Michael Vaughan's years of handling French people make him the ideal candidate to take care of my foreign affairs.

I did take it seriously. Every single one of those appointments would be perfect.

Maybe not Mr Kipling, but I needed to fit in the "exceedingly good" gag somewhere. Tim Harford can fill in anyway.
