A non or partly-functioning government usually with several vacant ministerial posts and a caretaker Prime Minister, who can only do certain things until a successor is elected. Usually, this is seen as a reason that a general election must be called.
“We have a zombie government and a prime minister missing in action. The country deserves better during this time of national crisis.” - Christine Jardine, Liberal Democrat MP

A retard "But I'm religious! The church can't be a shadow government!"
Hym "So... They aren't an unelected body that influences politicians and billionaires and millionaires and every other kind of 'aire' to shape public policy and perception to control the behavior of the people in out country? It's not direct and/or indirect control of people's moral framework, is it? Like, you don't have millions of people who have ceded (entirely) their personal morality and their own claim to shape the moral landscape to an overarching body of authority and they're not going to act in accordance with that authority, indefinitely, are they? Because that SOUNDS like a shadow government to me!"
A different retard "It's not the religion! It's the nationalism and fundamentalism (taking the religion literally, like, actually believing the shit makes it "fundamentalism" and is, therefore, the bad kind of religion)!"
Hym "And what's difference nationalism and religion? You're either on the side of God or you're not. ("I mEaNt ThE cOuNtRy!" She interjects) It's a 'religious country.' The religion IS the country. What's the difference between the fundamentalism and religion? You're either doing what the religion or you're not! What would religious on-fundamentalism look like? It's religion but instead of doing what's in the religion they just do something else... THAT'S religious non-fundamentalism. It doesn't even make sense."

It’s part of girl math; it’s cash, however if you buy something with “government coupons” it voids the cost of the item, making it “free”

A corporate entity, like the one that owns the buildings people live in, work in, shop in, dine in, play in, the doctor's offices they go to, and so on.
