This clue could be a double definition.

'press government' is the first definition.
'cabinet' can be an answer for 'press' (press can mean a cupboard). I am not sure about the 'government' bit.

'ministers' is the second definition.
(government ministers)

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for cabinet that I've seen before include "elected ministers" , "The place to display" , "Display cupboard - senior ministers" , "Cupboard; committee" , "up against the wall?" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
