Diggers Rogers How important is the cabinet in the executive branch of government? There is a large debate as to how important the cabinet is within the executive branch of US government. It can be compared and contrasted to that of the British government, where there are three key differences; the PM is head of the collective executive, whereas the president is the head if a singular executive. Secondly, the PM is head of the executive only because he commands the support of his party; on the other hand, the President is elected directly into the oval office. Finally, almost all of the UK’s political decisions are taken within cabinet, but the US’s decisions are rarely taken by the cabinet, and more by a few chosen advisers such as EXOP.
