British Civil Servant

v2 Chapter 1058: joint intelligence committee

The integration of British Airways this time is a matter of time. No country can support so many aircraft manufacturing companies. If so many companies exist at the same time, it will inevitably cause internal friction in the British aviation industry. The final result will naturally be that no one makes money.

Some industries are naturally suitable for monopoly, and the result of non-monopoly is to tear each other down. If Pamela Mountbatten does not do this, the British government will take the lead in doing so in the future.

Not only the aviation industry and Alan Wilson's impression, but also the British automobile industry and shipbuilding industry have been merged through nationalization, and of course they were all sold by Thatcher in the end.

Alan Wilson, who is about to leave for Basra, is still taking the time to replenish his physical strength. At the same time, he is trying to see if it is effective at Xiameng. He stretched out his hand to the familiar land with abundant aquatic plants. The feedback is very satisfactory, "Personal hygiene pay attention."

"Understood!" Xia Meng muttered softly with a red glow on her face, "I'm really not used to it."

It was another night of experiencing exotic customs. After many days of living in wine pools and meat forests, Alan Wilson became radiant. The diet also got rid of foods such as oysters and leeks.

"It's good to know." Alan Wilson touched Xia Meng's belly in satisfaction and sighed, "Our child may be very promising."

Will it? Xia Meng followed this idea and dreamed, "Mr. Wilson, do you have any dreams? I used to really want to be a star, but now I realize that even becoming a star is nothing in this world."

"Dream?" Alan Wilson was silent for a long time. It seemed that this question was very difficult for him. One day when I can no longer find the value of existence, not so old and weak that I lose the ability to commit suicide, this is my dream."

Xia Meng was startled, and quickly hugged the man's arm and whispered, "Don't think so, there are still many things worth pursuing."

"That's true!" Although he answered so in his mouth, Alan Wilson had a blank expression on his face, wondering if what he just said followed his heart, and after thinking for a long time, he was sure that it was, and he didn't want old age and weakness to be tortured by illness.

Just like nuclear bombs, having a gun and not having to grab it is completely different. Alan Wilson fell asleep with this answer. After breakfast overnight, Alan Wilson kissed Xia Meng's forehead to say goodbye.

Just continue with your own life that balances public and private affairs. The public aspect is to think about the situation in the UK and make filings to deal with it.

Naturally, private matters were dealt with among the ladies of the same status as his wife, waiting for the Basra Conference to be held.

Former cabinet secretary and current director of the Mountbatten Group, Edward Bridges, called him for something, so he naturally did not dare to neglect. Edward Bridges can be of great help to many things in the UK, and he will not because of Retirement is a bit of a snub.

"Norman's health seems to be getting worse. I don't think he can persist until he retires at the age of sixty-five like me." Edward Bridges poured a glass of whiskey for Alan Wilson, but it was Norman Brooke.

"This?" Alan Wilson didn't know why, so he could only say, "Sir Norman may not pay attention to self-cultivation."

"Education is not important, his authority is much greater than mine. His only hobby is to be a carpenter. Even if he is a few years younger, it is still very difficult to persist in this kind of work and rest." Edward Bridges He directly took out a copy of Norman Brook's medical file, "Norman seems to be starting to adjust the personnel of various departments under supervision. If my guess is correct, you will have a new position soon."

Alan Wilson did not take what he said to Edward Bridges today seriously, and a few days later, he was called to No. 70 Whitehall by Norman Brooke, "Alan, the diplomatic work must be obtained With the help of intelligence, you are now the permanent undersecretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and after I... discussed with the prime minister, it was decided that you will be the secretary-general of the Joint Intelligence Committee."

"Since national interests require me to take up this position, I will naturally do my best." Alan Wilson was shocked, but he didn't show it. He wanted to decline, but fortunately he didn't.

The Joint Intelligence Committee is one of the many committees that Norman Brook himself serves concurrently. Of course, the Joint Intelligence Committee is very important. Alan Wilson can use British intelligence forces justifiably.

Norman Brook was slightly tired, which was completely different from the aftereffects of Alan Wilson's rocket ride. It was a manifestation of too much effort, and he ordered, "Your wife, Pamela, just caused Did you know about the earthquake that hit the aviation industry?"

"I know now." Alan Wilson was very frank, and he didn't think there would be any problems with this matter.

Valley/span>"It's a good thing. Although those two companies are considered old-fashioned military enterprises, they are not worth 60 million pounds. The current domestic airlines are highly competitive, and sooner or later they will reach this point. I also understand in my heart , It is impossible for these companies that grew up in the world war to survive.” Norman Brook nodded, “As an aviation power, we need the aviation industry to create jobs. It is very gratifying that the Mountbatten family can do this.”

"The Mountbatten family has indeed made great contributions to the country." Alan Wilson nodded in agreement, "I am very lucky."

"But this is not the reason for you to serve as the Secretary-General of the Joint Intelligence Committee." Norman Brook chuckled, "For important departments, I like to use a small circle of assistants and keep them inactive for a long time. But we also need to consider civilized Inheritance, in fact, is also the time."

Although Norman Brooke said something cryptic, the implication was consistent with what Gerald Edward said. He did not plan to retire at the age of sixty-five, which was entirely out of physical considerations.

For this reason, even if he is less than sixty years old, he has begun to consider the replacement of Whitehall. Alan Wilson is not the only candidate. After a few years, he can find an absolutely passable successor, "By the way, the six parties When the talks are held, the Prime Minister is going to visit Africa, especially the African colonies."

"October? Because of the influence of the independence of French Africa?" Alan Wilson was a little surprised, and then immediately said, "I will immediately prepare the materials of the African colonies and the assessment reports of the local leaders, so that the Prime Minister's trip to Africa can be more convenient. It's been smooth sailing."

The Prime Minister's trip to Africa is related to the independence of the colonies, that's for sure, but Alan Wilson actually hopes that the Prime Minister will pay attention to British Guiana. There is no special reason, that is, it should be independent.

Is there any place in this world that is proud of being colonized? Of course there are, such as Guyana, French Guiana is still a part of France, British Guiana only became independent in 1970, and Dutch Guiana became independent in 1975.

The entire Guyana region belongs to three countries, and its economy is second to none in Latin America. It is much stronger than the Latin American countries that have already become independent. The problem is that Guyana is not willing to be independent at all, regardless of whether it is French, British or Dutch.

Dutch Guiana was still a leader who made a fuss, and the Dutch finally seized the opportunity to kick Guyana out and make it independent. France did not seize this opportunity until the 21st century.

For this colony with no gross value, Allen Wilson meant to get rid of the burden as soon as possible. Some islands can also be used as offshore financial centers. Guyana is obviously a group of uncles.

"I will send MI6 intelligence agents to Guyana to investigate. If it turns out that the locals want to rely on the British and not be independent, it means that the situation is really serious." In front of Norman Brooke, Alan Wilson said He took his first action as Secretary-General of the Joint Intelligence Committee.

The French were only one step slower than the UK and the Netherlands, which caused French Guiana to fall. In the 1970s, the people of French Guiana discovered that the countries after the independence of the colonies were still impoverished, and it was better for them to be honorable French.

"Oh, if I remember correctly, this should be the first time I've heard you so sincerely hope for a colony to be independent." Norman Brook laughed dumbly, "You are the secretary-general of the Joint Intelligence Committee, of course you can be a member of your authority. anything within, but how are you going to do it?"

"Create public opinion that Guyana doesn't want to be independent, and then force it to become independent." Alan Wilson replied, "This shows that Britain has changed its attitude on the colonial issue. Now is also the time, otherwise it will take a long time, and there may be trouble. "

Alan Wilson remembers ~lightnovelpub.net~ Dutch Guiana is not independent, and in the end the Netherlands even agreed to a series of free grants to make Dutch Guiana independent. It is better to get rid of this psoriasis early to be at ease.

Leaving Whitehall No. 70, as the Secretary-General of the British Joint Intelligence Committee, Alan Wilson, who had just taken office, met with the head of MI6, Richard White, and hoped that MI6 would give it a try after he took office. Prove your ability.

"Alan, I thought you were going to do something in Iran." Richard White breathed a sigh of relief, "It turned out to be such a small thing."

"White, don't think it's very simple. The economy in South America is generally not good. If a large part of Guyanese do not want to be independent, this is the trouble for the United Kingdom. We must be better than the Dutch and the French move faster." Allen Wilson spoke solemnly, and hurriedly withdrew the British troops from Guyana. There are so many colonies in Africa that need to be replenished.

A bunch of valuable British colonies have become independent. What is this worthless colony left to do?

"Okay, leave it to me, and you can rest assured." Richard White could only nod. Are there any colonies that don't pursue independence? He found out after a secret investigation.
