Hi everyone,
I'd welcome your help with the correct use of capital letters when using titles, especially political titles.
So far I think:
1. "Good morning Minister," should use a capital M
2. "Good morning," said the minister for justice should use lower case m and j
3. The Cabinet should always be referred to with a capital C
For some reason I'm having more trouble with the Chair of an assembly.
4. "Good morning Madam Chair," feels right with capital M and C
5. "Good morning," said the chair feels wrong with a lower case c
So my ideas seem to contradict each other. Anyone able to stop me going insane and having talking chairs in my story?
Thanks
Craig
