British Civil Servant

v2 Chapter 1609: 1 game of chess

Looking at the old Chernenko, Mrs Thatcher knew that if she wanted to deal with the Soviet Union for a long time, she might have to see who was the next generation of Soviet leaders, and it seemed that there was some **** with a map on her head. Come into view.

After Alan Wilson completed the inspection, he appeared in front of Mrs. Thatcher and Bush Sr. with ice cream, leaving the two British and American leaders who attended the event unclear.

"Sir, this is an official visit." Mrs Thatcher's eyes glanced at the cabinet secretary's flexible tongue, and she said solemnly.

"Isn't this a serious investigation?" Alan Wilson answered with the same seriousness, holding the ice cream, "The purpose of this visit is to find out the weaknesses of the Soviet Union."

"Then I don't know what weakness Jazz discovered in the Soviet Union." Bush Sr. joked. The head of the British civil service is really an interesting person.

"There is only one flavor of ice cream in the Soviet Union, which is a big gain." Alan Wilson, a frugal person, still did not waste the ice cream he bought in exchange for rubles, "There are too few choices, it may be done in the planned economy. It can greatly save tedious work, but it leaves the public without the right to choose. Although adding various additives to ice cream is not a clever way, from the purpose of deception, the look and feel are completely different. Also, ice cream is too cheap ."

"I don't know what the real exchange rate of the ruble is now. Converted into US dollars or American ice cream, which is lower, but I intuitively feel that it is cheaper than British products. As a frigid country, the Soviet Union kept food costs so low. a good idea."

Not only was Mrs Thatcher not persuaded, she even felt that the cabinet secretary in front of her was blackmailing Britain. Does it mean that prices in Britain are too high?

There must be this meaning, but Ellen Wilson's main purpose is to seek truth from facts and unilaterally express his views. If the Prime Minister thinks that he is blackmailing her, why not reflect on it? Is there a mistake in governance in some respects?

Mrs. Thatcher still described her harvest to Bush Sr. from a macro perspective. "I think that the two younger members of the current Soviet high-level committees will be the future leaders of the Soviet Union."

Just as Bush Sr. was about to say, Alan Wilson said first, "This is the same as Mr. Bush's future election for president. It's a high probability thing, and it's also a big gain?"

"Sir, it's hard to say what's going to happen in the future." It's not that Bush Sr didn't mean it, but he is now the vice president, and President Reagan's approval rating is still so high, he can't say that he has this idea.

Later, when there were only two people left, Alan Wilson asked who Mrs Thatcher was talking about, and when he heard it was the map head, the contempt in his eyes flashed away but he didn't speak.

In fact, until the moment when the Soviet Union collapsed, as an enemy for decades, the free world could not believe that there were such idiots in this world. In a few years, the situation turned sharply downward. Although the British Empire collapsed completely after the war, it was only after more than two decades of struggle that it raised its hand and surrendered in the 1970s.

"What are you thinking? Do you know that young commissioner?" Mrs Thatcher asked curiously when Alan Wilson was silent.

"I don't know, do you ask Chernenko to know the mayor of Birmingham?" Alan Wilson paused and changed the conversation, "I can't know the previous campus Conservative Party chairmen, right?"

"You?" Mrs Thatcher became anxious, but there was no specific action yet. Alan Wilson's cold eyes swept over, making the famous Iron Lady stunned.

Wu Shangquan put his hands in his pockets, thought for a moment and left a back to the female prime minister and said, "At present, some economists believe that the Soviet Union has encountered temporary difficulties, and we also have temporary difficulties. It depends on who we defeat first. Temporary difficulties will be able to take the lead in the next confrontation."

"I will definitely defeat the trade unions and rejuvenate the British economy." Mrs Thatcher's tone did not seem to be giving orders, but seemed to convince the man in front of her to believe in herself.

"There is a gap in size between the United Kingdom and the United States and the Soviet Union, and this gap cannot be filled under normal circumstances."

Alan Wilson made the narrative in a neutral tone, unless the result of the Soviet capitulation was that the United States remained on the side, surrendered to the United Kingdom alone, and the United Kingdom integrated the physical strength of the Soviet Union?

Thinking of this, Alan Wilson's eyes flashed thoughtful eyes, who said no? He and the son of the Czar of Culture are now head of the General Administration.

Maybe it can play a key role at a critical moment. At this time, the emperor is just a small, literal anti-rebel worker, and his elder son is already a senior security cadre.

Compared with his eldest son, what kind of young warrior is a map head who is already in his early fifties? The real young Zhuang faction is the son of the cultural czar. Can't the son of a tsar be a leader? Who said no?

After attending Andropov's funeral, Mrs Thatcher was obviously still angry because of the cold look of the cabinet secretary, and she didn't speak on the return flight.

"I'm not Mr. Thatcher. In principle, I shouldn't bear the cold violence of a woman." Alan Wilson rebuked, "As a prime minister, you are very unprofessional."

"You have never regarded me as prime minister, and you don't respect me." Mrs. Thatcher complained incessantly, "You also arranged for my son Mark to be involved in arms sales with Saudi Arabia."

"What's the matter? Doesn't a man need wealth to prove his excellence? I'm treating him as my own son. Except for my two sons, I have never been so good to the crown prince." Alan Wilson meant something. He opened his mouth, equally yin and yang, "If it wasn't for your indifferent attitude towards me, we wouldn't have gotten to where we are today."

Is it my fault? Mrs Thatcher looked indignant, don't you have any responsibility to come to this day? Obviously it can be done naturally, but it has to get on the bus first, and there is no sincerity afterwards.

Just as an old incident is about to be revealed to the world, the control tower of London International Airport has made the two mainstays of the United Kingdom, the national pillars, brake at a critical point, and there is no debate about who should bow their heads.

After getting off the plane, Alan Wilson took the initiative and said, "I want to talk to the coal union. If the discussion of the strike can be resolved, the strike can be resolved invisible, and there will be no well-known confrontation. That would be great. But the coal If the union doesn't appreciate it, then we can't blame it."

"Of course it's the best." Mrs Thatcher rarely said so charmingly. "Anyway, the strike is a harm to the country. If there is really no way, the coal union must understand that they It's absolutely impossible to win."

Let's be honest, the government's purpose is not to preserve the almost unprofitable mining industry, of which coal is just a proxy.

With adequate preparations for this, coupled with the cooperation with Saudi Arabia in energy, the possibility of the coal union winning is almost impossible. It lost to Margaret Thatcher in history, and it is even more impossible to win the mom-and-pop shop now.

According to the reliable sources of MI5 lurking at the headquarters of the coal union, the coal union is expected to start a strike in March. After Alan Wilson returned to London, he started to contact the coal union and expressed his last goodwill on behalf of the government. The strike at the opening of the card cannot be stopped, and the government can also use this to show that it has done its best.

Coal miners union leader Arthur Scargill was invited to discuss with cabinet secretary Alan Wilson about the pros and cons of mining for the country, and the entire conversation was tracked by the BBC.

At the same time, Mrs Thatcher was faced with another matter. The news that the former Minister of Industry’s criminal behavior was accepted by the London Metropolitan Police was considered by the Prime Minister as contempt for herself. It is not ruled out that some people hope that by cracking down on her 's loyal supporter, giving her the possibility of embarrassing her.

From Arthur Scargill's point of view, the Thatcher government is full of malicious intent. Last year, considering that 20 of the country's 175 coal mines were not only uneconomical, but also cost the government's huge investment, The losses were severe, so it was decided to close them.

The closure of these mines involves the unemployment of about 20,000 miners. Although the government has indicated that these miners will be properly resettled, the government has not followed up.

The promise was very good, but in the end it was not done. Alan Wilson knew that this was also the norm. In the process of privatization, Mrs Thatcher really meant to kill or bury it. The public spending that was saved was eventually sent out as unemployment benefits. .

"First of all, I express my sincere admiration for Mr. Arthur's concern for unemployed miners~lightnovelpub.net~. My admiration is absolutely sincere. The miners just want to have a job, not to get unemployment benefits and do nothing. The UK has such a situation. workers are the luck of the country."

Alan Wilson slowed down, and then changed the subject, "But the government has its own considerations in banning coal mines. Overall, this is a big chess game."

Once upon a time, Alan Wilson and the other people hated the remarks of the Big Chess Party, but in this position, he must also take this statement.

"Is the cabinet secretary trying to say, the kind of service industry the Prime Minister said?" Arthur Scargill asked rhetorically with a sneer, obviously not interested in the so-called service industry.

"Of course not, but the reconstruction and upgrading of the manufacturing industry." Allen Wilson said straightly, "In the construction of communication networks and high-end manufacturing, workers are not only called miners, but workers in other industries are not only more decent, but also more Great rewards. Looking at the working conditions of coal miners, no matter what we do to protect them, the working conditions in coal mines are dangerous.”
