...or, the bit of the British government most interested in the creative industries, which, as far as we're concerned, means games.
The Secretary Of State of C,M&S is in charge of the department- currently this is James Purnell, in our Labour government.
Traditionally, the party that comes second in the general election forms a "shadow cabinet", or issues its MPs with the roles they would be taking on if they were in power. For the Conservative party, that's Jeremy Hunt (http://www.theyworkforyou.com/mp/jeremy_hunt/south_west_surrey).

Today, Hunt recieved a written answer to his question about how much of the Treasury's £150million R&D budget has been allocated to the games industry.
