Chapter 1593 – Britain and Saudi Arabia are moving towards each other
The newspapers carried a full-page speech by the Prime Minister on the Falkland Islands, “We sometimes think that history happens to others, and then we suddenly realize that we are making history on this island.”
In fact, Mrs. Thatcher had her own agenda when she traveled thousands of miles, risking everything, to come to the devastated Falkland Islands.
She not only wanted to make political capital for herself and draw the attention of the nation to her foresight and hard work, but also to iron out the fruits of victory in the war and to find a symbolic place for Britain to land in Latin America, where its influence has been extremely limited, to revitalize the remnants of a nation that once ruled a quarter of the world.
From the time she traveled to the Falkland Islands, Margaret Thatcher had been preparing for the election, except that the first place she canvassed was this remote and isolated island full of less than two thousand people.
What’s the concern for Alan Wilson? It’s not like he’s in the same system as the Prime Minister, and he’s not impressed by the manipulation of a female Prime Minister who clearly wants to be re-elected, but hasn’t been stating her mind.
The cabinet secretary-general of course has his own work, at this time is meeting to discuss, how to avoid the trade unions tend to centralization of the content, mainly to dismantle the trade unions within the undemocratic problem, it is well known that democracy will lead to a scattered, and trade unions such as the workers’ organizations, without a certain degree of centralization, it is impossible to fight against the government.
So the key point to swing the unions is to mold the soil of democracy among the major unions, so that if there is a strike wave, there is no strong leadership in the democratized unions, and the government is in much less trouble.
For example, if there are strikes, there are labor thieves, and using labor thieves to break up strikes is a common option for governments.
But after World War II, the spillover of Soviet influence led to the centralization of trade union structures in various countries, so that a few powerful leaders could use their prestige to rally a wide range of supporters, which made it extremely difficult for governments to take advantage of labor thieves.
And the democratization of the union organization, it seems as if more people discuss, everyone has a say, the erasure of precisely the most important organizational power of the union, a trade union if the organizational power does not exist, how can it be the government side of the rivalry, does not exist leaders, naturally, it is not possible to forcefully curb the emergence of the labor thieves.
So against the unions, the means is to democratize them, the aim is to make them end up in a plate of salsa, and in the event of a wave of strikes, it is important to respect the fact that some workers have the right not to strike, and to avoid isolation from the former leader of the union who suppressed the people who love their work.
When the union leader has no way of suppressing the group that does not follow the strike, allowing the labor thieves to gain influence, such a strike is a broken house to the government, and one kick from the supreme authority it will come crashing down.
“The approach is a good one, but politics has to be balanced, and not too much to dismantle the power of the unions, the Tories are too powerful and in a bad position from our point of view. The government is a transparent government, so the Labour side should know about this, eh? It would be more appropriate to know after the general election. A number of colleagues have suffered temporary job rotations as a result of this privatization, so they may have some grievances in their hearts, but don’t take them out on the general election.”
Alan Wilson, who chaired the meeting, hoped that civil servants should think for the country and not vent their grievances against the Conservative Party just because of civil service layoffs, and he believed that civil servants are sensible.
But if one has to be a supporter of the Labor Party, Whitehall certainly can’t do anything about their colleagues.
With a tone of relief, the doctor dressed in white turned to Suzanne and said, “Ms. Vivienne is not a big problem, she will be fine with more rest and relaxation.”
“Thank you doctor.” Suzanne hurriedly thanked her, looking with concern at her mother who had already woken up leisurely, the Great British Treasure looked in the direction of the door after waking up, “Is no one coming?”
“Who cares so much about you but your daughter me.” Suzanne grumbled in an uncharacteristic manner and began to praise herself, “It’s a good thing I reacted quickly or you would have been in danger.”
“No it wouldn’t have, someone would have come.” Feiwenli stubbornly shook her head, she believed that her man would never leave her alone.
The most important thing between a man and a woman is trust, and was repeatedly sticking to her guns with her daughter when the door to the hospital room was pushed open and Alan Wilson’s figure appeared in the doorway, “Oh, Suzanne you’re here too.”
Politely greeting his ex-husband’s brother’s daughter, Alan Wilson sat down with a bag of bananas and grumbled at Vivienne, “How careless, Vivienne, how much of my work are you holding up, knowing that if I quantify the amount of information I come into contact with in a day, it’s astronomical.”
“I wasn’t paying attention.” Vivienne was PUA’d without realizing it, and admitted her mistake with an apologetic look, “It was all my carelessness, surely there must be other things to keep you busy.”
Suzanne felt like an outsider, just when she was wondering if she should leave, Alan Wilson had already opened his mouth to thank, “Vivian’s side really needs you as a daughter’s companion, this fainting spell was really thanks to you, in no way can I express my gratitude too much.”
“As a daughter, this is all what I should do.” Suzanne replied to the man in front of her, who was on equal footing with her father, “It’s not like David is in London, I have that responsibility.”
“To say that David, he has indeed been very busy lately, cracking a case of cocaine eucalyptus, smuggled into Xiangjiang through Coca Cola, which is considered to be a rare major eucalyptus in recent years.”
Alan Wilson lied without blushing, this eucalyptus case was certainly there, as it had already appeared in the police department’s file.
But in reality, it was just piling up some of the seized results of the past few years, in terms of anti-narcotics in Xiangjiang, into this eucalyptus case. David is also a senior official in Hong Kong, so he still has this power.
Although the eucalyptus was fake, Fei Wenli was very happy, her son’s actions filled her with pride as a mother, and she obediently held on to the peeled banana that was brought to her mouth.
“Anyway, now that you’re of age, you must be careful about your body. I for one am not mentally prepared for the spectacle of grief.” Alan Wilson had the tone of the head of the family and didn’t treat Suzanne as an outsider.
It was a scene that made the daughter of her ex-husband’s brother sigh with relief to be able to do this, and it was inevitable that her mother, who was the Great British Treasure, was deeply impressed, and her mother’s smile hadn’t been broken since the man had come in.
“I’ll be sure to recuperate, and you don’t have to come around so often, it’s not good for you.” Vivienne made a show of being in good spirits and smiled, “You’re so busy all day, this country depends on you.”
Suzanne felt like she was air, but couldn’t help but bristle at the comment, her ex-husband’s brother’s daughter knew nothing about the deep government, of course she thought this country was in the hands of the Prime Minister.
“I’m visiting Yinrak when you’re better.” Alan Wilson was going to make a trip to Saudi Arabia, but was passing through under the guise of visiting Yinrak, something Mrs. Thatcher knew about and approved of immensely.
The Prime Minister, of course, does not know that her son, Mark, has been pulled down by this Cabinet Secretary, but she is equally of the opinion that this army will greatly consolidate her support, and even hopes that it will be quicker, preferably with good news before the general election, and that the Prime Minister’s thoughts, and dreams, have the same status.
This is the start of tens of billions of pounds of arms sales, how can they nod to each other and say a line on the deal? The Saudis do have a huge cash flow in their hands, but no one’s money comes down with the wind.
The prime minister is concerned about what arms sales, or honestly concerned about their own election is better, Yin Lang after all, is the side of the territory of the large population, after the beginning of the Yin Lak hit confused, after a year of adjustment, has adapted to it.
Pushing the battle line back with the advantage of having a large land mass. Faced with the more advanced weaponry of Yinlak’s army, Yinlang took out the post-revolutionary religious fervor to counter it.
Yinlang undertook a rapid mobilization, and Basij militia groups were mobilized, all of whom were Khomeini-trained reserves. Characterized by little military training, let alone combat experience, but very religious, the army included a large number of clergy.
Their combat was characterized by extreme bravery, with 200,000 Basij militiamen spearheading the fight against Yinrak’s armored forces with their flesh and blood.
In the face of such armed forces, Yinlak army is also at a loss, at a disadvantage Yinlak army contracted defense line, a large number of use of landmines to block Yinlak’s charge, shouting Allah is the greatest imam, in the militia’s forefront, with the back of the same them shoulder to shoulder to form a human rampart, like not afraid of bullets as running advance, one after another exploding mines, can not prevent the minefield was pierced.
Yinrak people how to see such a scene, although we all believe in a religion, Yinrak back then to have such a spirit, early to Israel under the horse, still need to build the Middle East Maginot?
To Riyadh’s Allen Wilson, in the conversation with the Saudi side, the two Yin war such as the Soviet-Polish war in the twenties, Poland once turned over to be the master, taking advantage of the collapse of Imperial Russia to ride on the head of the Soviet Union to shit, but the Soviet Union’s military strength is not comparable to Poland, and ultimately counter-attacked into the Polish territory, just the Battle of Warsaw and knelt again in such a process.
When he met the Saudi Crown Prince Abdullah, he said that for the issue of arms sales, the prime minister also attaches great importance to the issue, and is willing to provide the Saudis with more than other countries.
“We are of the same opinion, but it may be opposed by other countries.” Prince Abdullah expressed his approval, “And Saudi Arabia is in a precarious situation, so if there can be a guarantee of security commitments?”
“That is not a problem in the slightest, Britain has always been very interested in defending peace in the Middle East.” Alan Wilson paused when he said this, “However, Crown Prince, security commitments are often accompanied by some economic exchanges, the issue of payment methods, we also have to take our time to find out the ways in which both countries benefit.”
Even the Saudis, tens of billions are not just taken out, let alone the pound, even Kuwait and the UAE, two countries that are still pinched in the hands of Britain, can not do this.
But Alan Wilson already has a program to accept dollar cash, as well as a share of the oil settled in pounds.
