v2 Chapter 812: subway delay

"I believe that the Cabinet will follow the professional advice of Whitehall." Alan Wilson spoke at the right time, expressing the highest respect to the supreme authority in a restrained but flattering tone.

"Actually, you can't just follow professional opinions." Norman Brook first recognized the professional authority of Alan Wilson in a general direction, but then changed the subject, "There are some problems within the Labour Party, although it is in our From the standpoint, we shouldn't say much, but it's better not to have any impact on the country."

"Wow!" As soon as Alan Wilson heard what the cabinet secretary said, he immediately asked for confirmation with a willingness to hear the details.

Norman Brooke said noncommittally, "Although it can't be called young and ignorant anger, it is very rare to continue to this day. Maybe there will be results after a while."

The dispute between Prime Minister Attlee and Foreign Secretary Morrison, the No. 1 figure of the Labour Party, stemmed from the crucial election when the Labour Party fought for the leadership of the Labour Party. Morrison, who was expected to be the leader of the Labour Party, lost the election. If he did not lose his parliamentary seat in 1931, then he would not be Clement Richard Attlee but him as Labour leader and future Prime Minister, a blow that he could never let go of.

Aiden replaced the aged and long-unpopular Churchill, ushering in a new era for the Conservative Party. It means that the Conservative Party has been replaced and replaced, while the Labour Party is still the same.

When Alan Wilson heard this, Lu Bu's face appeared in front of him for no reason. "A man was born between heaven and earth, how can he live in a low world for a long time!"

Morrison is also popular, passionate about voters and highly regarded within Labour. In the original history, since Attlee was counterattacked by Churchill in 1951, the Labour Party returned to Morrison's hands.

Just like what Norman Brooke said, the two had a bad relationship in 1931, but it has continued to this day.

After the war, because the Labour Party was in opposition for a long time and there were not many people in the party who had governing experience, several super ministers appeared, and several super ministers were in charge of multiple departments, and Morrison was one of them.

After the death of Ernest Bevan, Morrison became the foreign secretary and the number two figure in the Labour Party.

Morrison is qualified to challenge Attlee in terms of qualifications and popularity.

What Norman Brooke said has results, it is estimated that when the Prime Minister will remove Morrison from the cabinet. It could be next month, it could be next year, everything is hard to say, it depends on Attlee's patience.

"My God." Alan Wilson, who walked out of Whitehall, was not happy to hear the ruling party's gossip. They're already the ruling party, so what else is there to do?

Although he returned because of the independence of Sudan, Alan Wilson still called friends and drew closer to his colleagues in London.

He works overseas, and he can't distance himself from his friends in London, which helps to know what's going on in China at the first time.

He naturally had friends at the London City Hall. Markins immediately responded positively and wanted to go around London with Alan Wilson. The urban transformation due to the London smog incident was visible to everyone.

There is also the invisible, Markins pointed to the underpass, "The subway expansion planned in 1948 has already started. This project is no smaller than the urban reconstruction project."

"That's really gratifying." Alan Wilson was stunned, and then said with great interest, "Then let's go to the subway and see how the world's first subway operates. I'm also going to be in Kuala Lumpur. , Singapore to build two subways. If feasible, the order of subway equipment, of course, depends on domestic companies.”

"This is very pleasing." Markins' eyes lit up. As a senior official of the London City Hall, of course he has connections with relevant companies, and he saw the business opportunities at a glance.

The London Underground has been running for more than 100 years. In the early days, in order to draw the smoke from steam locomotives out of the ground, the tunnels built had to be drilled with ventilation holes.

As the two talked, they entered the nearest subway station in Whitehall, and waited to go to the East District to have a look. After all, it was due to him, the High Commissioner of Malaya. While waiting for the subway, the two had endless things to say, and the time was 1:1. point past.

He had finished smoking a cigarette, and the subway had not come yet. At the end, Markins looked at his watch frequently, frowning slightly, "The subway has a fixed line, why is it so late?"

At this moment, the belated subway finally heard Lord Sheffield's call.

And the passengers at this station are already very impatient, almost all of them are angry, and they are obviously very dissatisfied with the late arrival of the subway.

"It seems that the subway delay is beyond the normal range?" Alan Wilson said as he heard the noise of dissatisfaction around him.

"It should be, I don't sit for a long time." Markins has his own private car, this time he just went out with his friends to check the operation of the subway. When Alan Wilson returned to Kuala Lumpur, he asked The subway plan is well-informed.

The subway had just stopped, and in the carriage facing the two, a group of passengers got off the train scoldingly. The two policemen got off the train while twisting a woman with blood on her face, and the woman was obviously in a drunken state and was twisted out. He was still struggling and yelling, "What are you doing, I'm not leaving."

"Quickly drag this **** away, Mr. Police Officer." A passenger in the same compartment shouted impatiently, obviously he was also delayed, which caused dissatisfaction.

Compared with the passengers who were in a hurry, Alan Wilson obviously had time and was curious to understand the ins and outs. It was finally determined to be an ordinary drunken trouble case.

As a British gentleman, the two had a friendly onlooker, and even missed this train. But the matter did not end, one of the officers apparently knew Markins and greeted embarrassedly, "Lord Sheffield, why are you here."

"I accompany my friends to do the subway and look around. I didn't expect that there would be unexpected gains." Makins replied with a wry smile.

Ellen Wilson looked at the woman curiously, what was wrong with her, and her expression was the standard expression of eating melon islands, and asked Markins' friends, "What are you going to do?"

"Stuck in the police station for a few days. We have dealt with many similar things." The police officer said indifferently, but the scratches on his face were still very conspicuous.

"Oh, that's it." Alan Wilson looked at the scratches on the other's face and asked sideways, "Does this happen often? I mean, something like that."

The two policemen nodded. Although the reputation of drinking in England is not as good as that of the Soviets, it is actually not bad at all.

Why didn't you put on the hat of an alcoholic? Is this a problem? Don't look at who has the hegemony of public opinion?

While the two sides were talking, the woman was still swearing, accusing the police of violent law enforcement, but the two police officers didn't care. It was obviously not the first time they had faced such a thing. They just apologized to the two Whitehall civil servants.

"Actually, this doesn't have the effect of killing a hundred people. So the London subway is often delayed? And the environment of the subway is not good?" Alan Wilson took his gaze back from the woman and questioned the two policemen, what's so special about this? There is no capitalism at all, so who will pay for the late losses?

Who will accompany the loss of passengers on the entire subway line? The Labour cabinet seems to be claiming to combine the advantages of capitalism and socialism, not the disadvantages of both.

"Record the identity of this woman." Alan Wilson looked at Markins, Lord Sheffield looked indifferent, and continued, "Calculate the additional costs and losses along the entire route due to the delay, and then sue her, I believe that the court will send the bill to her house, this is a positive case, and I believe there will be very few things like this on the subway line in the future."

"Ellen, this is just a woman." Makins said in surprise, "She can't afford this money in her life."

"I have eyes, Markins, I can see that this is a woman." Alan Wilson pointed to his own eyes and said, "I love women, and my wife is a woman. But we have to be responsible to the whole country, otherwise we will later How to run the country? You can't let her go just because she's a woman."

Alan Wilson is righteous and upholds national justice. He certainly understands the consequences of putting this list of losses on a woman~lightnovelpub.net~ Isn't it a social death? Even if one person pays an unbearable price for his life, it can reduce similar incidents in the entire city, which is a good deal.

Even in London, Alan Wilson still did not change the true character of the Saigon boxing champion. He just made this woman pay a little price, at most social death. If she wants to commit suicide, that is her freedom.

"Maybe it's a good idea." As a professional bureaucrat, Markins said to the two police officers, "Just do it."

"That's right." Alan Wilson said with admiration, "This is also in London. If you are in a country of peace, let alone challenge the public sentiment of the citizens, you should be stoned if you dare to take the subway."

Out of gentlemanly manners, the two waved goodbye to the police, and waited here for the next subway stop before heading to the East District.

While the two are doing one good deed every day, the Cabinet Office is drafting a professional opinion on the partition of Sudan, explaining how to avoid the tragedy of British India, and to reduce the possibility of colonial conflicts while Britain makes the colonies independent.

After Norman Brooke's professional opinion came out, he took it to 10 Downing Street and asked Prime Minister Attlee to pay attention.

"The partition of British India caused a lot of casualties." Attlee had some doubts and seemed unable to make up his mind.

"That's because when the two major religions are together, casualties are not paid attention to." Norman Brooke said, "We invite both sides to talk. Even if there is a fight, as long as it doesn't affect others."
