You were an Auditor.
The Ministry is responsible for the promotion and preservation of British culture.

It is a sprawling, many-branched institution.

To which department were you appointed?

Bloody icon Cold = 1

The Information Office The Department of Sensibility The Department of Corrections
The Office ingests raw information before it can reach vulnerable citizens, then regurgitates it in terms they should find less distressing.
Silent and subtle, the Office maintains extensive networks of informants. They are also tasked with auditing new books and publication to ensure they don't contain anything unnecessary.
Their task is to determine what constitutes 'Britishness', and identify threats to it.
The Department of Sensibility is considered the heart of the Ministry. It was a solemn place to work: its employees take their responsibilities very seriously indeed.
Why censor when you can correct? A revised word here; an omitted sentence there. Now the whole page says something different; something less troublesome.
Even quintessentially British works like the King James Bible have been found to include unpalatable errors. The Department amends them. More recently, it sometimes amends people, too.
