British Civil Servant

v2 Chapter 1606: star wars

The invasion of Grenada naturally aroused widespread opposition from the international community. In fact, Britain was originally among the opposition, but Alan Wilson persuaded the female prime minister, so the opponents were left with a group of countries headed by the Soviet Union and a certain major power.

When Alan Wilson was on the phone with Washington, he enthusiastically agreed with the just move of the United States, saying that some countries should not be allowed to irresponsibly adopt a pro-Soviet policy. The move of the United States is very good.

"I once heard a sentence, and it was very well said. It is better to kill three thousand by mistake than to let one go. If it is easier to kill them than to persuade them, you should make a decisive decision. However, a country with a population of only 100,000, even if it is What if you kill them all?"

Hearing the murderous voice coming from the microphone, Treasury Secretary Ronald Reagan was also shocked. "Physical removal is not good after all. The Secretary-General's original intention is good, but there is no need to make such a decision."

"In short, the United Kingdom supports the United States in defending its legitimate interests." Alan Wilson defended the special relationship between the United Kingdom and the United States with an authentic London accent, then hung up the phone and left work.

Arriving home in a hurry, Alan Wilson shoulders the mission of being a good husband and accompanies the richest woman whose children are not around. The children have grown up, and as the head of the family, he can't let his wife feel lonely. Pamela Mountbatten is very concerned about this This performance is very satisfied, "It seems that the country is safe recently, and you don't have so much work to do."

"This year is fine, but next year may be a mess. We are going to attack the coal mine, and the mining union knows that the government is going to attack the coal mine."

The national coal miners' union has always been known for its strong militancy in history, and the struggle of the miners can often directly affect the development of the national political situation.

As early as this year's general election was in full swing, coal miners' union leader Arthur Scargill issued an unmistakable threat: "The result of the general election is the greatest disaster Britain has encountered in nearly a century."

To protest the re-election of "such a woman", he vowed to organize a political strike of the miners to show the power of the workers.

The coal miners' strike did not start this year because coal miners' unions and coal miners were divided over launching the nationwide strike. According to the regulations of the British miners' union, a nationwide strike requires the approval of more than 55 percent of the miners. A nationwide strike was not passed at the time of the vote.

However, public opinion preparations for a nationwide strike have not stopped for a year, and the number of workers who advocate a nationwide strike is increasing. The coal miners are about to make a big move, and the situation seems to be in full swing and the sword is unsheathed.

"The government is still going to attack the coal miners." Pamela Mountbatten knew that her husband also supported Margaret Thatcher in this matter, and said, "The coal union is different from other unions, 1926. In the annual strike, the coal union is the main force.”

"Our prime minister is really an iron lady when it comes to dealing with strikes." Alan Wilson sighed, holding his wife's hand, "but I support hard-line policies simply because coal mines are really not profitable, and the local mining industry should be ended. Well. Thatcher's purpose is more than that."

In British political life, the Labour Party is the only major political party that can compete with the Conservative Party, and the social pillar of the Labour Party is the trade union organization. Therefore, the Conservative Party has always targeted trade unions as the main target of attacking the Labour Party, and used the disintegration of trade unions as a means to dismantle trade unions. Destroy the Labour Party.

In her campaign platform for the first general election, Mrs Thatcher took combating trade union forces and weakening trade union power as one of its basic goals.

Speaking of Mrs Thatcher herself, she was even more at odds with trade unions, treating them as "enemies of industry" on the grounds that they "distorted the value of labor and negatively affected the normal functioning of the economy in other areas." and many more.

The coal workers knew they were about to be abandoned, and the government didn't hide it, so this time the strike came clearly, and neither side hid their purpose.

As early as after the general election, Alan Wilson reminded the Labour Party that the Conservative Party wanted to dismantle the Labour Party's fundamentals this time. As for how the Labour Party will respond, Alan Wilson will not interfere. Now Whitehall is promoting industrial upgrading and has the support of the new Minister of Industry.

Even if the coal union is cleaned up, it is necessary to ensure that the power of the union continues to exist, so as to balance the power of the two parties.

When nothing happened today on the British side, the U.S. military operation has already entered the next stage. In response to the isolated and scattered remaining resistance forces in the grid and the complex terrain of the hidden areas, the U.S. military has been divided into parts, with companies and platoons as units, and open spaces. Cooperate, clear the remaining enemies, and hunt down the main leaders of the coup.

At this time, there was good news from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The work that the UK has been doing to the big dog owners has been rewarded. In principle, the formal negotiations on this arms sale can be started.

Of course Alan Wilson did not dare to neglect, and directly called Mrs Thatcher's son Mark over, explained the PUA that I have always treated you as a real son, and then began to teach the experience of making a fortune, "It should be kept in a state of secrecy. Next, get in touch with the Saudi side, this is also for national interests, I think it is more appropriate for you to come forward."

"Secretary-General, I lack experience." Mark hesitated. Of course, he didn't want to go, but just wanted to express his humble character.

This kind of convoluted excuse, of course, is useless in the face of no authority, and it is not heard for a while, and it is said that only the children of the Prime Minister will come forward for this important task, which will make Saudi Arabia feel more sincere. The empire is very good, and it must be done well."

Alan Wilson thought, how can Mark's profit not be millions of pounds this time? This is the treatment of the prime minister's son. No amount of estimation is possible. The UK is still a country ruled by law, and it is impossible to make excessive political donations.

Besides, if Mark gets too much, what will happen to his son? He is also going to keep a copy for his son on the arms sales of strategic missiles.

The U.S. military invasion of Grenada has not yet ended. The prime minister’s son is already excited and has taken a foreign exchange mission to Riyadh. This is the real stealing home. Compared with Saudi Arabia, Grenada can be called nothing. .

The restoration of the traditional relationship between the UK and Saudi Arabia was settled during the US military operation, and the scale of arms sales became more and more clear. Through the feedback from Saudi Arabia, Riyadh is satisfied with the sincerity of the UK, and will also use sincerity to Respond sincerely.

"The Department of Defense's assessment of the Star Wars program?" Alan Wilson took the Department of Defense's budget application, and then said with a smile, "This matter is still under study."

The strategic defense plan of the anti-ballistic missile defense system, commonly known as the Star Wars plan. The plan was approved by US President R. Reagan.

It is planned that $25 billion will be spent in the five fiscal years following fiscal year 1984 to study key technologies for advanced anti-ballistic missile systems and demonstrate possible options for a decision by the early 1990s on whether to How to develop such a system.

But Alan Wilson remembered that, let alone the 1990s, it could not be said to be a success in the next 30 years. This plan was a pit, and the United Kingdom followed suit.

However, the refusal has to be reasonable. Alan Wilson carried Mrs Thatcher out and said, "The Prime Minister has just quarreled with the opposition party in the House of Commons on the issue of the new aircraft carrier. At present, in a short period of time, he has once again invested in the military. The probability is not high, so we need to take into account the financial pressure.”

The Star Wars plan is a pit for the United States. The United Kingdom should not leave its own traces in this pit. However, the Soviet Union must have a follow-up plan. The supreme authority still remembers the name, it seems to be called Red Star Wars.
