For three hundred years, the best time for British citizens to live is undoubtedly now. Although Britain's international influence is slowly declining, the existing colonies are still vast, and the Labour Party has established basic welfare policies and medical protection.

The colony was still vast and British citizens were guaranteed, more successfully than Attlee's presidency had historically been. European countries also have their own problems, but for the UK today, it can be said that the situation is very good.

Of course Alan Wilson also talked about this election with his fiancée, supporters of both sides.

"Old England should still support the Conservative Party, and the voice of the aristocracy is not very important. The major families are now transferring their property abroad, and there are many destinations, the United States, Canada, Australia, etc., but since the taxation of Newfoundland. After the adjustment, the destination has been unified a lot, and a lot of money has been linked to the company in Newfoundland." Pamela Mountbatten looked at Alan Wilson approvingly, "It's also thanks to you, my dear."

After the war, the Conservative Party still relied heavily on the support of the Old Englanders. These so-called Old Englanders generally came from the relatively wealthy south of England, and they were mainly people living in the countryside. They were generally more conservative in their thinking and more 'traditional' in their political appeals. Compare gentlemen and aristocrats. The general national stereotype of a gentleman in England is an image of a southern British dress, a top hat, a walking stick, and an umbrella.

"Aren't you helping me? Don't say these things about our relationship. I'm willing to carry the burden for you!" Alan Wilson said indifferently, "but generally I admit that you're right. .But who doesn't like perks?"

Labour's welfare policy originated in "Social Insurance and Related Services" and was widely accepted by British citizens before the end of World War II, but this article "Social Insurance and Related Services" describes the benefits from cradle to grave Imagine, the most impressive vision of a future where white bread can be eaten in every UK.

The so-called cradle-to-grave welfare could be imagined in 1949. Alan Wilson felt that this is similar to the idea of ​​the liberation war that every Chinese should be fed.

So the welfare of this welfare state is not a big deal at the moment. Are you saying that he is not opening his mouth? It's Newfoundland!

It can be said that some openings cannot be blocked once they are opened. Once Newfoundland is used to the current influx of hot money, no one can let Newfoundland raise taxes except for the Newfoundland Parliament itself. Because Newfoundland eats this bowl of rice.

Even the British cabinet has no right to order Newfoundland what to do, it is a royal domain, just as the British Labour Party cannot order the Australian Labour Party what to do, the British Parliament cannot order Newfoundland what to do.

Unless the British send the Royal Navy to blow up Newfoundland, even forcing Newfoundland to become independent is useless. Even if Newfoundland is kicked out, it will still seize the status of a tax haven, independent or not, and Newfoundlanders have already enjoyed the benefits.

Old Englanders, including the aristocracy, were indeed supporters of the Conservative Party before, but the most influential aristocracy among the old Englanders, after taking a breath from Newfoundland, will they still be as supportive as they used to be? Conservatives, it's hard to say.

Moreover, it can be seen from the first election after the war that the British did not reject nationalization. The event that really made the British question liberal capitalism was the world economic crisis that broke out in the 1930s, that is, the Great Depression in the United States. .

During the World War, all the activities of Britain were carried out in an orderly manner under the arrangement of the state. Although the war severely damaged the economy, the price of goods was stable; although the supplies were scarce, there were few disasters of starvation.

Therefore, it is definitely not accidental as people think that the Labour Party came to power, it is absolutely justified.

After the New Year's Day, the warm-up for the general election has actually begun. The British general election is not like the United States, which can be noisy a year in advance, but the whole month before the February general election, the election atmosphere is still very strong.

The streets of London can always see groups supporting the Conservative Party and the Labour Party rallying. When Alan Wilson and Pamela Mountbatten were shopping, they stopped for a while next to the Conservative Party rally and listened to what was going on.

The two held hands and listened for a while, but they did not hear the Conservative Party attacking the Labour Party's nationalization policy. Alan Wilson whispered to his fiancée, "It seems that the Conservative Party has learned to be smart."

"It may be that the defeat of the last general election gave the Conservatives a wake-up call." Pamela Mountbatten smiled, "It seems that Mr. Churchill should have high hopes for regaining the prime minister's position in this general election."

"Maybe it is!" Alan Wilson couldn't help laughing. Looking at Churchill's political experience, it is difficult to say what his political philosophy is. If we have to summarize, what the voters support, what Churchill supports.

The British welfare policy was initiated by the Labour Party, but the Conservative Party did not abolish it after coming back to power. It also worked **** welfare policy, just like the welfare society started by the Conservative Party.

Just like the Toshiba incident, Japan's machine tool technology was shaped by Nippon to be invincible in the world, but many people did not know that the machine tools purchased in the same batch were actually French machine tools. At the same time, there were many high-end machine tools produced by European countries in the Soviet industry.

In the end, Britain, France and Germany, including Sweden, were all fine. Only Japan’s Toshiba Company was severely punished by the United States. This is simply because the United States found a reason to punish Japan, and it has nothing to do with Japan’s machine tool technology. Even if Japan exports a screwdriver, it will punish the Americans if they see it. Japan celebrates the funeral of the Toshiba incident, which is similar to the Conservative Party's chanting of welfare.

The two continued to hang out, some stopped by the Labour Party rallies, and listened to the speeches of Labour Party members. The speech was mainly divided into two parts. The first part was Prime Minister Attlee's last speech in 1945. The British Commonwealth!"

The second part, Alan Wilson, is very familiar, "Make the British Great Again!"

"Hey!" Alan Wilson sighed, interested in how to make Britain great again, and stayed a little longer.

"Dear, believe it or not, I came up with this slogan first!" Alan Wilson lowered his voice.

"Really or not?" Pamela Mountbatten covered her mouth and asked curiously, "This slogan is famous and has a lot of support."

"This is going to start with the last joke I made with Foreign Secretary Ernest Bevin." Alan Wilson motioned for Pamela Mountbatten to follow him. There were so many Labour supporters nearby that it was easy to be heard. Oh no.

"It's so interesting, Margaret won't believe it." Pamela Mountbatten snickered and said loudly before returning to the car.

"Ah? That idiot!" Alan Wilson held his forehead, not thinking it was a good thing.

"Ellen, she's a lot more honest now, she's no longer hostile to you, and sometimes listens to you with gusto." Pamela Mountbatten took the opportunity to mediate the relationship between the two. So she is also the daughter of the king, the younger sister of the crown prince, and has a very high status in the royal family.

Although the two are unlikely to have daily conflicts, it is always impossible to avoid seeing each other, and it is better to maintain a harmonious relationship.

Although the electoral atmosphere has been fired up, an election described by the Labour Party as about the future of Britain's greatness has become a topic of discussion among British citizens from the radio, newspapers and various gatherings, but Alan Wilson is still continuing. run around.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Commonwealth Department, the Colonial Department and the original Indian Affairs Department were in the same block. After the Indian Affairs Department was abolished, the other three departments moved directly to the same building, but they worked on different floors.

On this day, he was in the Colonial Department, and he talked with his colleagues who he was more optimistic about in the general election, and welcomed a guest from afar. The guest was named Charles Brooke, and at this time he entered the Foreign Office building with half a million pounds in cash he got from Pamela Mountbatten.

Alan Wilson happened to be on the floor of the Colonial Department, so naturally he helped to start sharing the work. Everyone was a civil servant in Whitehall, and it was right to help each other, not to mention that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Colonial Department and the Commonwealth Department were all one family.

After learning that Charles Brooke's purpose was to buy back his throne, Alan Wilson and his colleagues in the Colonial Department were surprised, but after consultation, they decided to report it to the foreign secretary who was busy campaigning. The Permanent Undersecretary of the Foreign Office and the head of the Whitehall Civil Service, the Cabinet Secretary knows.

Recently, the Foreign Secretary, like the Prime Minister, is busy with the general election about whether the future of the United Kingdom is great. After consultation with Norman Brooke, Ismay Permanent Secretary and Norman Brooke decided to write a detailed report to the Prime Minister and the Foreign Ministry. The minister explained the matter.

The time selection was submitted when Prime Minister Attlee was anxious to attend the party affairs meeting. The Prime Minister and Foreign Secretary were very busy that day, not only to attend the Labour Party meeting, but also to rush to the constituency to give a campaign speech.

To be the prime minister in the UK must do two things. First, his party must win. At the same time, the prime minister, Attlee himself, must win in his constituency. If Attlee is defeated in his constituency, the prime minister will still be the Labour Party. Prime Minister, but not Attlee.

The current deputy leader of the Labour Party, Herbert Morrison, who was at odds with Attlee, lost his constituency in the election and had to watch Attlee lead the Labour Party until he became Prime Minister.

During the general election, this report, which no one could read carefully, was returned, and what happened was logical. After losing the Sarawak throne for three years, Charles Brooke temporarily regained his throne.

Pamela Mountbatten was very happy and invited Charles Brooke to the reception, of course with Alan Wilson.

"Who are you? Is it you?" After Charles Brook saw Alan Wilson, he looked at the men and women holding hands in consternation.

"Mr. Charles, you forgot so soon. Without me, you may have to work for a long time." Alan Wilson gave Pamela Mountbatten a tender look, "isn't it, dear."

"Yes from a global perspective, and the specific details may be debatable, but we can often come to the same conclusion from an objective point of view." Pamela Mountbatten leaned on the man's shoulder and said, " I think that conclusion, Mr. Charles already knew."
