Chapter 1733: Using History as a Mirror
“These are the documents from Ireland and Iceland, applying to join the EEC.” Placing the document in front of Mrs. Thatcher, Alan Wilson continued, “Whitehall still believes that Britain cannot agree to it in any case, no matter what reason these two countries apply for.”
“Whitehall is as firm as ever.” Mrs. Thatcher took a deep breath and unsurprisingly spoke, “Of course I agree with Whitehall, you’re not going to change your attitude anyway, are you.”
“Iceland took on American white glove responsibilities after the war, competing with British fishermen for fishing grounds. Do you really think I don’t know that, except that I had a good move, letting Newfoundland poke the Icelanders in the ass, and then closing off Iceland’s exports in the EEC, and now, even though the exports have been liberalized, who knows if the Icelanders will look for trouble when they come in. After all, being in Britain’s shoes, couldn’t one be as worried about Iceland assuming the same role as the French are about Britain representing the will of the United States?”
“As for Ireland, no matter what we do, Ireland will emphasize its hatred with Britain, so if we can’t defuse the Irish hatred, we need to find a way to contain it. It’s not the last century anymore, and people of Irish descent are no longer to be underestimated politically, and it’s not as if there’s no possibility of the US making trouble for Britain through Ireland.”
And Ireland wants to join the EEC? Just with the first case of human-to-human transmission of mad cow disease in Europe, this ban on meat exports to Ireland will be enough to keep Ireland’s hands full for a while.
“My Secretary General, who has never been a professional above defense against the United States.” Mrs. Thatcher sighed in her heart, a lot of things she did not know, and is not dwelling on the relationship between the United Kingdom and the United States, are nodding, “Well, every day always talk about work is also fatigue, why not talk about something easy.”
“The matter of Maradona poisoning the Brazilian team is now being rumored.” Alan Wilson gleefully opened his mouth, his face full of smugness, his eyebrows fluttering as he recounted all aspects of the gossip.
Argentina is Britain’s enemy, from the Falklands War after the Falklands War has been an irrevocable fact, supreme authority such a patriot, is never about what the country and the individual has nothing to do with, the country he wants to screw, the individual can not be spared.
That’s what the times saved Argentina, for a hundred years ago he would have hanged the hand of God, five hundred years earlier he would have killed Argentina higher than the wheel.
But since it is a modern society, can not take such a cruel attitude, everything should be objective and neutral, like to the Brazilian team drugged things, equivalent to the scope of the level of labor rehabilitation, then Alan Wilson to Maradona sentenced to a death sentence is not excessive, right?
“Now we have begun to dig deeper, 1978 World Cup, Argentina and Peru that famous fake ball, to mold Argentina in public opinion as a long-term reliance on cheating and fake ball, to achieve good results of the team, this time the victim of drugged is Brazil, Brazil is a long time are the kingdom of soccer, we have to guide if not drugged, will be the Cup of the reasonable results. ”
“Do you do this sort of thing all the time.” Mrs. Thatcher listened to Alan Wilson’s blatant public and private use of his weapon and asked helplessly in return, “You’ve been a Cabinet Secretary for almost thirty years, surely you haven’t done this sort of thing too often. Only this time you’re willing to take it out and share it, aren’t you?”
“Prime Minister, look at what you say, this is all for the interests of the UK to consider, the enemies of the UK will still be looking for trouble in the future if they are having a good time.” Alan Wilson ambiguously said, “In fact, Maradona faced with such an end, it may be more able to maintain influence in the long term, Chaplin is not so?”
The World Cup stage needs sad heroes, Argentina is very suitable for don’t make me cry, said this Alan Wilson directly backwards, “Moreover, and Argentina war is the Prime Minister’s idea, I just after the war has been tightly staring at Argentina, can not let this country from any point of happiness, this is wrong?”
Admittedly, it is rare for Britain to have a Cabinet Secretary with his constancy, but doesn’t that also wipe Mrs. Thatcher’s ass?
What a strong argument, and Mrs. Thatcher couldn’t listen to it anymore; it seemed to her that Alan Wilson had completely let himself go and didn’t care about anyone for the rest of the year or so he had left.
If it were the old days, she would never let the other side of the peace of mind to wait for retirement, but since the last time after a deep conversation, has been a change in the situation, even if she is the Prime Minister, Alan Wilson can not do anything about it.
Just as Mrs. Thatcher should have thought of the problem, Alan Wilson has been the Cabinet Secretary for almost thirty years, must have done countless times to see the light of day, not only through Harold Wilson’s term, but also before the Conservative Party Aidan’s prime ministerial term.
Alan Wilson wants to wait quietly for his retirement, the current government should be happy, not in some minutiae to make him difficult, this is not good for everyone.
Double break, Alan Wilson went to Hawksin Manor, to Albert’s son Aiden to tell a story, a certain big country traditional history story chiseling, to inspire his grandson in the future to better benefit society. Pamela Mountbatten found out when the story was finished, “Very inspiring story, I believe the main character was a great nobleman.”
“Of course, he went on to become Prime Minister.” Alan Wilson replied dryly, “Only the youthfulness of it does not conclude grown up merit. But it’s not his fault, I’m sure it’s understandable that every age has every age’s considerations.”
It doesn’t really matter that Quantico went on to become a bad guy, and Alan Wilson doesn’t want his offspring to be rotten good guys, and can choose to be a good guy, but it’s all self-selection, and once so chosen, one must first be more powerful than the bad guy, and choose to be good out of a moral dimension.
So it’s okay to do something bad, all development has a price to pay, and that price has to be borne by someone, and he can only choose to let others bear it.
“You really labor on education.” The richest woman heard, shaking her head in her heart wondering how her husband was grandfathered, changing the topic, “These days in addition to the comet company’s things, we also conducted a market survey, surprisingly, found that in the East Asian market, some of the economy is relatively poor, Land Rover instead of selling well.”
Alan Wilson knew what was going on as soon as he heard it, and took over the information and glanced at it to explain, “The government purchased the car, and Land Rover sold well in the Northeast and Southwest instead, indicating that the local geography is suitable for Land Rover’s model, and there is no other reason for it.”
The public car goes on the public account, can’t purchase a batch of Big Ben, and then use it inside the deep mountains and old forests, right? Although the Northeast has a large plain, the mountainous area of Changbai Mountain is also large. As for the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau’s big name, it goes without saying that there is no need to think too much when conducting a market analysis.
“Very much so, Arnold brought a message that the GDR has managed to get the Audi Group in the middle of the government procurement list. As for that red BMW, it has already obtained an import license.” Pamela Mountbatten exclaimed, “The GDR is taking this matter very seriously.”
“This is a good start.” Not only did the GDR take it seriously, but so did Alan Wilson, and no one understood better than he did the importance of this to Audi.
Audi and Mercedes-Benz BMW compared to the existence of the gap of the lack of heritage, but Audi in a large country for a period of time as a synonym for the official car, to make up for the gap in this regard.
Otherwise, Audi is even less likely to have a foothold in front of Mercedes-Benz BMW, and the promotion of the Audi brand by a certain large country cannot be overemphasized, otherwise Audi is an ordinary brand, and even if it is on the high end of the station, it is about the same as Cadillac and Lincoln’s sense of existence.
With the population of the GDR, there is no need to get too involved in more industries, to make the optical instruments that are not as good as the Federal Republic of Germany, but are still considered to be the world’s leading optical instruments, and some of the advantageous projects with advanced concepts are completed, and then there are automobiles and electronics, which is basically enough to be used.
“But doesn’t the Soviet side care at all, I heard that Lithuania declared independence.” Pamela Mountbatten inquired, was it that the Soviet Union matter was a little too low in the heat of England.
“What’s there to care about in that little place of two and a half million people. And both we and Washington think that Moscow should not be too irritated.” Allen Wilson replied vaguely, and both London and Washington judged from common sense that Moscow would crack down.
Obviously it wasn’t worth it to get upset with the Soviet Union over a small place of less than three million, and who would really allow their country to become independent? I just didn’t think Maputo would actually allow it. At this current time, whether it’s Britain or the US, securing the territorial integrity of the Soviet Union is the number one priority, otherwise who knows if the Soviets will do a coup?
Two months ago, Lithuania was the first to turn on the Soviet Union, declaring independence. Among the more than ten member states of the Soviet Union, Lithuania was the first regime to declare independence. At that time, Lithuania had a population of just over two million people, a quarter of which were Russians, and the total strength of the Soviet army, even after the map head disarmament of half a million people, was still as high as more than four and a half million people, almost twice the total population of Lithuania.
With this kind of comparison, who would really have acted in favor of Lithuanian independence? Of course it was fine to bash Moscow, but if Moscow really wanted to suppress it, the free world’s counteraction was still bashing, it couldn’t really send in troops, that would be insane.
“Indeed.” Pamela Mountbatten thought for a moment and agreed with her husband, was it really possible to compete with millions of Soviet troops for love and justice? She wouldn’t have chosen that in her place.
“In fact, if they weren’t separated by Poland, the three Baltic States would actually be fine to follow the GDR in the future.” Ellen Wilson began to have a brainstorm again, anyway, idleness is still idleness, still can’t dream?
When the richest woman came back to her senses, Allen Wilson went back to the cause of education, and he thought of a bad guy as the protagonist of the canon, and Pamela Mountbatten whispered brokenly, “Do you still need to make it hard to think? Just tell more of your own story.”
