British Civil Servant

v2 Chapter 1745: sign of infighting

Borrowing the Russian president to check and balance the Soviet president can't be blamed for the free world's lack of martial ethics. Isn't the current situation in the Soviet Union chosen by the map leader himself?

It is the map leader himself, who has cultivated his competitors bit by bit. As for London, they are discussing which of the two will be in power, which is more beneficial to the free world.

The premise of this discussion is, of course, that the Khitan people's support for Lithuania's independence this time has made the eyes of the free world shine.

Although the political ability under the map head is enough to make the free world feel gratified, but there is no minimum, only the lower Khitans have appeared, and the status of the map head, a political star, is no longer stable.

"The impact of the poll tax is huge, and the support rate of the Conservative Party has been underestimated for a long time." After the meeting, Middleton discussed with Alan Wilson not the situation in Lithuania, but the domestic political situation. The focus of the party's attack was the poll tax policy.

"This is really difficult." Of course, Alan Wilson is not surprised at all. Regardless of whether the rich or the poor pay the same amount of tax, it can be regarded as an extremely excessive policy in neoliberalism.

Of course, the richest woman is happy, and in a sense, everyone is equal, but the chaos brought about by now cannot be suppressed for a long time, which shows that this time Mrs. Thatcher kicked the iron plate.

Middleton looked at his immediate boss, did he want to remind the prime minister, while Alan Wilson shook his head, "Even if we knew it was a mistake in private, our prime minister is a woman, and you can't expect her to admit her mistake, at least There is no way the policy can be undone until she steps down."

There are still millions of Britons who refuse to pay the poll tax. As for these people’s claims, it seems absurd. The organizers of the refusal to pay the poll tax say that if the people of Eastern European countries can overthrow their governments, then of course British citizens can too.

Mrs. Thatcher certainly never imagined that the victory of the free world that she was so proud of would in turn become a condition for encouraging opponents in her own country.

But the fact is that, isn’t there a saying that things are universally connected, he saw the victory of the free world, and those who opposed the poll tax also saw the victory of their own perspective.

Britain is now facing the largest civil disobedience movement in its history. Attempts to collect the tax were thwarted by this massive resistance movement.

The Thatcher government, which was once indestructible, now has even lower approval ratings than before the privatization reform. After all, only some people were offended by the privatization reform, and many people were beneficiaries. The sale of state-owned enterprises also helped the privatization reform raise a lot funds.

However, the number of beneficiaries is too small compared to the number of victims. There are millions of people who completely refuse to pay the poll tax.

But this number is not all of the opponents. A larger group of people is paying the poll tax, but they still oppose it and support the protesters who refuse to pay the tax to continue to riot.

Regardless of the position of the media, in every poll, more than 80% of the participants stated that they were against the poll tax, but they did not participate in the protest.

In the eyes of the vast majority, it is a blatant class tax. It is ruthlessly taken from the poor and generously given to the rich.

It puts billionaires on the same level as low-wage earners. The final payout will be about the same as an unemployed family in Lambeth.

In order to avoid the poll tax, some people have to rethink the meaning of family, and many people think that the reduction of the poll tax can be solved by being single.

Allen Wilson is quite familiar with this point. As long as I lie down and reduce all consumption, no tax will hurt me. Obviously, the expenses of maintaining a family are greater than that of a single person.

On another level, hundreds of thousands of people have been forced to default on their loans as mortgage lending soared. Home repossessions are on the rise. Homeownership has become a nightmare for millions of people.

Bankers, industrialists and directors gave themselves massive pay rises, and the number of British millionaires increased by 400 per cent in ten years.

For these wealthy people, with the implementation of the poll tax, the tax they pay is much lower than before. There are many opponents of the policy of the Conservative Party government. It only occupied a relative majority before. According to the survey, the Conservative Party will definitely lose in the next general election.

What can Alan Wilson do? He is just a mere civil servant. It's not like he hasn't stopped it. Didn't he object in an interview before, but the objection was invalid.

Putting aside the refusal to pay the poll tax, Alan Wilson will not take the initiative to bring up this topic that makes the Prime Minister unhappy. There are many happy things to talk about, such as Lithuania.

Who will win this confrontation between Tutou and the Khitans? This is not a good conversation topic, and Mrs. Thatcher also enthusiastically joined the discussion, "Who do you think wins?"

"Comparing these two people alone, this is obvious." Alan Wilson replied with a smile. "Things over the past few years have shown that the ability of the map head is really not good."

The Khitan people must have the ability. You must know that Russia was a parliamentary country when it first became independent. At the end of the Soviet Union, the Khitan people also became the president of Russia through elections and fought against the map. The Khitan hit the White House with a backhand, telling his opponents that he was not an idiot like a map leader.

During the shelling of the White House, the parliamentary faction who opposed the Khitans was also a comrade in arms with the Khitans in street politics at the end of the Soviet Union. In theory, they were not afraid of death. At least when the Soviet Union was still there, they all showed a look The appearance of the people pleading for orders suddenly raised their hands and surrendered in the Russian era.

So, people who are not afraid of death do not exist. This Lithuanian incident is really a step towards an armed conflict. He does not believe that Lithuanians really dare to destroy everything and want to be independent.

Mrs. Thatcher is also in a dilemma now. Of course, the leader of the map is more trustworthy in terms of ability. The Khitans seem to be much more difficult to deal with than the leader of the map. However, the temptation to support Lithuania's independence as the president of Russia is too great. Once Lithuania can become independent, theoretically all republics of the Soviet Union can become independent.

In the past, people generally believed that Russia would be the biggest cornerstone to put an end to this possibility. Now judging from the Khitan people's statement, it is not impossible for the Soviet Union to disappear from now on.

Has it finally come to this point? It seems that countries in the free world should find out now. In fact, it is theoretically possible for the Soviet Union to disappear, but I have never been able to believe it.

Alan Wilson believes that Mrs. Thatcher’s embarrassment is also the embarrassment of US President Bush, because the disappearance of the Soviet Union is undoubtedly a pie-in-the-sky dream. Intellectually, everyone knows that this is a dream, so there is really this When the opportunity arises, instead of rushing to it, you will not dare to believe it.

It's like saying that God is everywhere, but when God does appear, people probably think it's a hoax.

The Soviet Union must be planning an unknown conspiracy, which is more likely than the Soviet Union disappearing from now on. This can explain that before the disintegration of the Soviet Union, Britain and the United States kept saying that they wanted to maintain the sovereignty and integrity of the Soviet Union. Everyone really didn’t think it was so stupid event occurs.

Not long after, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Lawson, asked to meet Mrs. Thatcher. Alan Wilson managed to keep the Prime Minister from being unhappy, but the poll tax involved fiscal revenue. The Chancellor of the Exchequer was of course the most worried, and had to discuss the poll tax with the Prime Minister. actual situation of implementation.

The truth is that the resistance to the poll tax, a revolt from Scotland, and later on in England and Wales, has caused panic throughout the Conservative Party.

In some constituencies, more than 50% of the people refused to pay the poll tax. Although this confrontation was softer than the coal strike, it was even bigger.

"Is it possible to alleviate dissatisfaction through certain subsidies?" Mrs. Thatcher has been troubled by the poll tax reform for a long time, and these **** don't understand her painstaking efforts at all.

Everyone pays the same tax. Isn't this what the Labor Party has always advocated for everyone to be equal? ​​Why is it not obeying it now?

It is impossible to revoke the poll tax. Mrs. Thatcher has never backed down since she came to power. If she revokes it without saying a word, doesn't it mean that she is wrong?

Lawson was a little disappointed. He already felt that Mrs. Thatcher was unwilling to revoke the poll tax. In the face of the interests of the entire Conservative Party and her own image ~lightnovelpub.net~ Mrs. Thatcher chose herself.

"There are already signs of internal strife within such a Conservative Party." Alan Wilson flipped through the recent statement records of Conservative Party MPs, while Rose was silent on the sidelines. , nor is it like the cabinet secretary who has the same status as his father, who has no one to control his mouth.

Only when faced with a problem, Ross will answer, such as now, "It is true that many members of the Conservative Party have expressed their dissatisfaction, and there may be only one leader who resigns."

"I don't want the Conservatives to address this issue, the responsibility for the poll tax cannot be placed on Mrs Thatcher herself."

Alan Wilson sounded like he was taking the grievances of another member of the mom-and-pop shop, but it wasn't, emphasizing that "the big hated issue of the poll tax should be blamed for the entire Conservative Party, not Thatcher. one person."

It doesn’t make sense for Mrs. Thatcher to be pushed out as a thunderbolt. The Conservative Party wants to cut it. The new prime minister will come up to understand the public opinion and then abolish the poll tax. Continue to prepare for the next general election, right? Think beautifully.
