Second Martin Ministry (Wiltshire)

Beau Martin formed a majority Conservative government on 12 November 3025, known as the second Martin ministry. His previous government was brought down by a backbench rebellion over the budget, which proposed tax hikes and a new, progressive system of corporation tax. The second Martin ministry is sometimes referred to as the Martin-Lethbridge ministry, due to the strong role of chancellor Basil Lethbridge, who steered the government in a more right-wing direction.

Several members of Martin's first cabinet refused to return, given the chances imposed by Basil Lethbridge, including Lucy Burgers, who was fired as chancellor to make way for Lethbridge, and former prime minister Audrick Hill.
