Tokyo: I loaded the love advice system

Chapter 418 Chapter 417: First Meeting

Congress, House of Representatives.

In the fan-shaped venue, there are rows of seats.

In the upper right corner of each position, there is a name plate of a member of the assembly. Ritsu Ninomiya is a member of Tokyo's tenth district, so he found his seat in the front position.

The MPs on both sides of him were not seated yet.

Bored, he sat in the seat and looked towards the stage. He saw two seats in the center, one was the speaker's seat, the other was the chief affairs officer's seat, and the left and right sides were the affairs bureau seats and ministers' seats.

The prime minister's seat is also in the ministerial seat.

Of course, there is also a special seat on the second floor called the throne room, dedicated to the neon emperor.

View from the seats.

In the entire parliament, the emperor was overlooking all living beings on the second floor. The speaker was below one person and above ten thousand people. Whether it was the cabinet prime minister or ministers, they could only stand on both sides.

But let’s talk about actual rights.

Neither the throne on the second floor nor the speaker's seat in the center can compete with the ministers' seats on both sides.

One cabinet prime minister and nineteen cabinet ministers jointly control the direction of the entire country.

at this time.

The stage was full except for the speaker's seat, the secretariat seat and the briefing press box.

The seats of the Prime Minister and Cabinet Ministers were empty.

In addition to the official announcement of the election results today, another major topic is the election for cabinet prime minister.

However, the election of the prime minister does not require a referendum like in Western countries with presidential systems. The prime minister is elected by the House of Representatives, and is generally held by the president of the majority party in the House of Representatives.

Nowadays, the neon party dominates.

People from the Liberal Democratic Party account for nearly 300 seats in the entire parliament.

Therefore, the selection of the cabinet prime minister is nominally a campaign, but in fact there is no suspense at all, it is just a formality.

Since there is no suspense about the choice of Prime Minister of the Cabinet.

Of course.

There is no suspense in the selection of the nineteen cabinet ministers. After all, the cabinet ministers are appointed by the prime minister. After the new cabinet prime minister takes office, he can freely form a cabinet that obeys his orders.

Say so.

In fact, the cabinet is not of the same mind.

The ministerial seats have long been carved up by various forces, so in a sense, cabinet ministers are the spokespersons of the top wealthy plutocrats. Once the interests of the famous plutocrats are touched, they will quarrel every minute.

The cabinet is in such chaos.

The House will only become more chaotic.

Members of the opposition party are waiting to find fault every day, but they will not give you the face of the cabinet and the prime minister. They will slap a resolution of no confidence in the cabinet on the table and demand that the cabinet be dissolved on the spot.

Just once.

An opposition member of the House of Representatives publicly insulted the Prime Minister as a lackey of a prominent plutocrat during a budget meeting in the House of Representatives. There was even a famous scene of a fight between members.

So it looks like a serious and aloof parliament.

In his opinion, it is no different from a wet market, except that it is still chaotic.

The votes for the Prime Minister's election have just come out.

In the end, Toda Nagamasa was elected with an overwhelming vote of 298 votes.

An opposition member of the Reform Party scolded the camera on the spot: "Objection! When Mr. Toda served as Chief Cabinet Secretary, he was a loyal lackey of the Zaibatsu and the Ministry of Finance. He and the cabinet he formed will inevitably fail. Protect the interests of the people and step down! Step down! Step down!”

"Get down, you plutocrat's lackey."

"Baga Yalu, you have made the cabinet hereditary, which is simply shameless."

"..."

Facing the torrent of abuse from opposition members, the new Prime Minister and the cabinet members he appointed remained unmoved. Even the more than 300 members of the Liberal Democratic Party were snoring in their seats. , some secretly play with their mobile phones, and the more diligent ones are holding a foreign language textbook, wondering which language they are learning.

<divclass="contentadv">See here.

Ninomiya Ritsu's inherent impression of the House of Representatives was instantly shattered.

Where is the promised high-level body with the highest authority to determine the direction of the country?

That's it? That's it? That's it?

Make sense.

He felt that the scolding wars in Huaguo Food Market were better than theirs.

"Ninomiya-kun, is this your first time being elected to the House of Representatives? How about it? Are you disappointed in the House of Representatives?" A 37-year-old female congressman named Nakano Ikumi sitting next to her asked casually.

Ninomiya Ryu coughed: "This... is indeed a bit abstract."

“The opposition parties only account for 465/1 of the 3 seats in the parliament, and because they are not united, they cannot change the direction of any resolution, so they can only vent verbally. As for threatening to file a cabinet resolution of no confidence, listen. It's all good once you hear it. Even if it is brought up, the vote at the meeting will not pass." Nakano Ikumi seemed to be in a good mood and said more.

"But Nakano-san..."

Ninomiya Ritsu lowered his voice: "I remember that in the last parliament, it seemed that the cabinet passed a resolution of no confidence, which led to the dissolution of the House of Representatives in advance, and the general election started several months in advance."

"The situation was different last term."

Nakano Ikumi shook his head and said: "At that time, the Prime Minister acted arbitrarily and stood on the opposite side of most of the famous plutocrats, which led to the passage of the cabinet's no-confidence resolution. But even if the resolution was passed, neither party could get anything good, and this Your Excellency, the Prime Minister, is actually a confidant of the previous term and will continue to pursue the ideas of the previous term.”

There was a pause.

Ikumi Nakano reminded: "So Ninomiya-kun, even if the election is over, don't forget to maintain your popularity. It is best to give speeches and hold activities in the constituency frequently. This term of the House of Representatives may not last four years. "

"Nakano-san, thank you for the reminder."

"You're welcome, you are just a few years older than my daughter, so I couldn't help but nag a little more."

"..."

The two chatted happily.

Thanks to Nakano Ikumi's detailed introduction.

He finally realized why, even though the general election was over, many congressmen would continue to speak on the streets, hand out leaflets, and say hello to the residents in the constituency for several months.

It turns out the real reason is here.

indeed.

Parliamentarians have a high status, but they are also extremely unstable.

There was once a House of Representatives that lasted only one month before being disbanded.

So no one can guarantee it.

Will this term of the House of Representatives be dissolved early?

But the good news is.

The new prime minister has a high reputation and should not be so prone to trouble. It is hard to say whether this term of the House of Representatives can last for four years, but within two years there should be no need to worry about being dissolved early.

evening.

The first House meeting has come to an end.

This meeting decided on the candidates for the Prime Minister of the Cabinet, as well as all Cabinet Ministers and Deputy Ministers.

Probably within this week.

The newly formed Toda Cabinet will inevitably hold its first cabinet meeting.

At that time, at the first cabinet meeting

Decisions will be made on the positions of administrative officers and deputy ministers of affairs in various agencies such as the Ministry of Justice.

He would definitely not be able to win over the political officer.

But some other positions may be up for grabs.
