Quinn Fabray (born April 30th, 1972) was the 14th Deputy Prime Minister of the United Kingdom of Malgrave.

Early life and career

Quinn Fabray was born on the outskirts of the rural town of Karlino, and although she is part of a large family by Malgravean standards (having three older brothers) she is the only daughter of Andrew and Susan Fabray. Andrew Fabray being leader of the Agricultural Coalition saw the vote gaining potential in this only daughter and quickly took her along with him on the numerous political events. The noise of the crowd and the feeling of such mass rural support quickly grabbed the young Quinn's attention and drew her into the field of politics at an early age.

In the following years the entire family toured the rural areas of the country, aiming to gain political support among the more social conservative rural population, the constant movement around the country while being supported by political allies which fervently held the same political points of her family only sought to further cement her political positions at that time. After several years of touring with family members she was finally asked to step up to the political plate, and at the age of 14 was finally allowed to attend political conferences herself. It was at this time she started to encounter people which political opinions actually differed from her family and their political allies and she gradually began to challenge her long held beliefs although she still held them in public.

It was during one of these political cultural events in 1998 that Quinn began to finally change into the politician and person she is today, as she was challenged by a rising progressive personality to live inside the city of Epping for a month before evaluating her political positions, something which was accepted rather arrogantly by Quinn at the time who moved into a small apartment in the outskirts of the city. Although she moved into the city in order to challenge the views of a left-wing figure her father and other members of the Malgravean Agricultural Coalition still saw it as a betrayal of ideals, with some members seeing her as corrupted by the ideas of cityfolk moving to kick her from the party, the added insult came when her father publicly dismissed her from the family.

For several years following the incident Quinn continued to live in Epping deciding to finally forge her own political ideas she slowly began to slide to the left-side of the political spectrum finally joining the Progressive Unity Party in 1994. Quinn successfully joined parliament in 1995 when a local MoCR decided to retire from politics. Since then Quinn rose through the system becoming known for her ruthless aggression in both parliament and during meetings with fellow politicians. She first came into the public spotlight in 1997 during a reshuffle when she became Shadow Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development a post she held for five years into government until she became Minister of Culture, Youth, Media and Sports only holding the positions for one year until she was promoted to position of Foreign Minister.

Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development

After he Progressive Unity Party was elected into power during the 2000 Malgravean General Election Quinn Fabray ascended to the position of Agriculture and Rural Development Minister. As Quinn was a former member of the Agricultural Coalition and her father was a prominent member of the organisation her ascension to the role inside government was extremely controversial in the right and left-wing communities. In her brief two year stint in the position Quinn pushed through several unpopular reforms designed to increase automation in the agriculture sector and increase foreign imports of food products.

Minister of Culture, Youth, Media and Sports

In 2002 Quinn was moved to the Ministry of Culture, Youth, Media and Sports following controversial comments she made about the criminal past of a foreign news anchor working for the Malgravean Broadcasting Corporation but this punishment only lasted for a year when she received a promotion during the next forced cabinet reshuffle.

Foreign Minister

During her time as Foreign Minister Quinn Fabray was tasked with further opening the country to the international community, although she has some restrictions in place by the party leadership of the time who was worried about the possible economic and social ramifications of rapidly opening the country into the world economy. At this time she became known for her shrewd and stern negotiations with foreign powers, according to a Royal Malgravean Times article of the time "becoming popular for not bowing to the crude demands of foreigners".

In these years Quinn gained her reputation as a top notch politician managing to open the country into the field of international affairs at such a pace not to worry the current political leadership whilst managing to provide much needed foreign investment into sectors of the economy providing a much needed boost to sectors like tourism and industry.

Deputy Prime Minister

Quinn's successful posting as Foreign Minister both increased her popularity and made her one of the most well known politicians inside the party in the aftermath of the 2009 election and although some party and opposition politicians viewed the decision as unprofessional Quinn was promoted to the position of Deputy Prime Minister.

Currently her time in office has been known for strictly supporting the positions of the Prime Minister on all issues and ensuring fellow politicians and selected allies tow the political line during important votes in parliamentary sessions, a task well suited for her unique aggressive approach to situations

Controversies

According to some Quinn still retains a snippet of political thought retained from when she was a member of the Malgravean Agricultural Coalition which is focused around a strong distrust of certain foreigners and a disliking of large agricultural companies.

Another controversy occurred when in September 2011 it was reported that Quinn verbally and some say physically attacked a member of the general public for accidentally insulting the Prime Minister's short stature and vegan lifestyle something which Quinn has refused to comment on.
