Stepping into this new era of the untested, coalition government has come back after the world war. Will it be able to guide us to prosperity and create a society of peace and advancement? Stepping down of Gordon brown has called the two rivals to act as colleagues and lead the nation into the future. With their reforming agendas and unified purpose to make England prosper; Prime Minister David Cameron and his deputy Nick Clegg have assured the public of achievements. Speaking jointly to the reporters from Downing Street earlier they have shown confidence in each other and faith in their resolutions. It began with Mr. Clegg meeting Mr. Cameron at Downing Street where the two men mapped out their Cabinet. There were some surprising developments, with Theresa May becoming home secretary and Ken Clarke appointed justice secretary. Two important economic posts went to the Lib Dems, with Vince Cable handed the business, innovation and skills brief and David Laws becoming chief secretary to the Treasury. George Osborne became chancellor. William Hague also kept his pre-election brief, becoming foreign secretary. Chris Huhne and Danny Alexander also received Cabinet positions for the Lib Dems. Once the junior ministerial designations are set, many more Lib Dem MPs are expected to have a role in the government.

The government also mapped and presented the areas where they would like to turn things around and the new fields they’d be entering. Their ideas reflected Tory policy, such as immediate plans to cut the deficit or a cap on non-EU immigration, but others clearly showed a high degree of Lib Dem influence, notably over civil liberties, where a Great Repeal Bill has been promised. Will this work, or is this just another lie made up to settle down the anxiety. The government whose foreword is change will have to prove its worth and keep its promises; weve seen our share of failed ideas and assuring monologues by the responsible. Only thing required now are results.
