Chapter 176 Studying Together

Alan Wilson sent the young Iron Lady home as promised, without any misdemeanor during that time.

Even in his heart, Alan Wilson also hesitated, he was sure that he would not get involved with the future Mrs. Thatcher, at least become a family is certainly not possible.

Just think carefully about the scenario of one being the Prime Minister and the other being the Cabinet Secretary, and you will know how difficult this would be in the UK. What’s more, the two men are completely opposite in their thinking, and Alan Wilson wasn’t entirely joking when he said he was a true socialist.

If it was a choice between the Conservative Party and the Labor Party, he would definitely choose the Labor Party, even if he couldn’t say so openly.

Under Labor’s rule, Britain might have all sorts of problems, but it would certainly be a brighter future than dying after an addiction. Giving up industry and engaging in finance is destined to set back Britain’s position in the world to before the Industrial Revolution.

When things are going well, it’s not so bad, but once there’s a breeze, what little is left of Britain’s underpants will be visible to the whole world, and the opposite thinking is true: if this could be a family, there would be a divorce right away, too.

But a historical figure with a halo appeared in front of him, and now is still in the growth period, Alan Wilson can not turn a blind eye to it, and he has already practiced it once at great risk, just on Foltseva.

The Iron Maiden was now an almost defenseless presence to him, and just thinking about it shattered Allen Wilson’s already small sense of morality.

Immoral as it was, he had made up his mind to get the last great thing done before he went to British India. A successful test drive in a domestic car!

Alan Wilson consoled himself with the fact that this was a free society, where there was no concept of chastity and more emphasis was placed on fidelity after marriage. Anyway, now that Mr. Thatcher didn’t know his wife, his own behavior was definitely not considered malicious.

And then again, even if there was a tiny possibility that the two had already known each other, wouldn’t that be better!

At this time Alan Wilson’s transfer order has been issued, just out of the Cabinet Secretary’s care, let him personally decide when to leave, time is running out, he must think of ways to take the initiative.

But at this time Allen Wilson also had to go to see the Minister of Indian Affairs, Pethick Lawrence, in the final analysis, a greedy person desires too much, so it is often into a busy state.

In a sense Margaret Thatcher a few decades later was the same way, too much emphasis on politics, it neglected relationships, resulting in later years in the middle of a long period of loneliness.

“Sir Edward, thought I’d recommended you to travel to New Delhi to find out what’s really happening on the ground.” Ministry of Indian Affairs building, Pethick Lawrence himself in the middle of the office, the new Minister of Indian Affairs, Pethick Lawrence, personally assessed Alan Wilson, “For the British India issue, now the Cabinet argued fiercely, do you think it’s possible to calm down?”

“Out of consideration for the British Empire, I would say yes. Out of consideration for the real state of affairs in the British Empire at the present time, I can only say that the chances are not good. What is done is done, and I am willing to work to carry out the instructions of the Empire.” Alan Wilson held his head high and expressed great confidence in this difficult task.

“Very well, if it comes to the point where British India has to be abandoned, how do you think it would be done in the British Empire’s favor? Just if, and that’s just purely hypothetical.” Pethick Lawrence, quite satisfied with Alan Wilson’s statement, followed up with another question.

“If this is a mere supposition, I will answer it simply. There are some voices which argue that British India should be retained as a whole, and in reality this is not very likely. The PML-N and the Congress Party are on a collision course and would never coexist in one country.” Alan Wilson thought for a moment and said, “Even if Nehru is willing, Ali Jinnah will never be willing, the only feasible way is to partition on the basis of religious population.”

This is also the final realization of the approach, in fact, to the PMLN can not be said to insist on independent statehood selfish, is irresponsible for the entire South Asian subcontinent.

Mahatma Gandhi was assassinated by the Hindus, the problem of South Asia is not only the problem of the religion of peace, Hinduism is equally not a good fight, and finally divided into two countries, has been considered a good result.

The reason why the situation in South Asia is tricky is because it involves a lot of claims and power centers, the United Kingdom does not have the South Asian subcontinent completely under its own rule, in the large British India, there are still many states in a semi-closed semi-independent state, the United Kingdom can only be indirectly ruled over them.

And within British India, there are also a variety of religious hostility, these religions have their own ideas, each of their small groups are likely to repel each other, a hundred years ago, the tearing war may be taken out as a perfect reason for not sharing the same day, and there is no lack of a few attitudes as hard as iron, the call is also as powerful as the wind of the leader, arm a shout can get up a clearing of the entire continent.

The PMLN’s last rallying cry is Ali Jinnah, the Congress side has a much richer pool of talent.

Alan Wilson, if he returned to New Delhi, while he would try to delay the British withdrawal as much as possible, he would also take Ali Jinnah’s health into account and get the partition done while the PML-N leader-is still physically fit.

“Partition seems to be Ali Jinnah’s idea!” As a Minister of Indian Affairs, Pethick Lawrence, though previously passionate about the emancipation of women, was aware of several prestigious leaders in British India.

“Yes, the PML-N has taken a stand that it will not live in a country with Hindus. That’s why I said the plan for a united India would be very difficult to implement.” Alan Wilson said in a frank manner.

Right after World War I, King George V signed and passed an Organic Act for the Government of India, although this act was already trying to apply to India the way the separation of powers government was organized.

But it established a sectarian electoral system, making sectarian strife even more intense, and the vast majority of Indians were not satisfied with the sincerity of the British reforms.

The Congress Party, in particular, boycotted the bill, not to mention the contradictions between the Hindus and the **** and other sectarian disputes have not been broken, such a fight and kill the situation, in order to establish a peaceful democratic society, it is simply a mirage.

In the thirties, the London government came up with another settlement, this time met with even stronger resistance from the Congress Party.

What’s the point of a settlement if you’re going to follow Alan Wilson’s ideas and expect a comeback later?

Rush to unify the idea of fishing for a big one and run, than any bill makes sense. Britain still want to establish a long time to India’s influence, this is not a joke?

However, although so think, he can not say so, politicians often have I want all the naive ideas? But he didn’t realize that being on stage was far less comfortable than being in the House of Commons and forcing his eyes to cry out in opposition.

But this conversation proved the nail in the coffin for Alan Wilson’s return to India.

In the middle of an evening telegram to New Delhi, in which he made it clear that he could go back, he sent the good news, by cable, to Pamela Mountbatten.

“How can I test drive a domestic car?” Allen Wilson, who sent off the telegram, stood by the window thinking hard. The patriotic feeling of supporting domestic cars could not be extinguished for a long time.

Talking about feelings for the Iron Lady kind of people is not useless, just Allen Wilson did not have that time, nothing can not delay his return to New Delhi’s established plan.

It can only be said that Allen Wilson shoulders a multitude of missions, can not put all the energy on the domestic car test drive above.

After that night’s civil service reception, Allen Wilson did meet Margaret once, again the last time he talked about politics on a girls’ school vacation day with the backhandedness of a friend leaving contact information.

Since the Iron Maiden was into politics at such a young age, Alan Wilson would have to go in that direction and be a good mentor to the Iron Maiden’s life as she moved towards maturity.

It was vacation day again, and Margaret, with a heart for progress, again attended the civil service reception, having learned her lesson from before. Alan Wilson did not let him disturb his colleagues, but personally to the future prime minister reception.

During this time the guests and the hosts were talking to each other, and Alan Wilson was presenting his views on the colony to Margaret, attracting the girl’s attention. Lang Lang, the colleagues who were there today already had a drunkenness.

“What time is it? Why are these people already drunk?” Margaret was a bit displeased, but considering that she was just a student, she softened her voice and said, “This is not like what I imagined the Whitehall elite to be like, the last time it was already nighttime, and now it’s only daytime.”

“Even if we work in Whitehall, we’re all just ordinary people. Not to mention on a vacation day, it’s nothing for everyone to take it easy.” Seeing that the time was ripe, Alan Wilson said with some embarrassment, “Why don’t I send you back!”

“Okay!” Margaret actually still had a lot of questions that she hadn’t asked, but seeing that Alan Wilson already had the intention of ending it, she could only answer dryly.

This time Allen Wilson was much more nervous in his heart, and used the same trick to bring Margaret back to his home. Then the expression that he was looking for some information, documents from the same Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Indian Affairs, attracted the girl’s attention.

The two logically stopped at Allen Wilson’s home, it was still early in the day, and broad daylight always gives a false sense of security, and although there was some nervousness when they first came in, Margaret let her guard down between questions and answers.

Taking some documents, asking questions to Alan Wilson, after a while Alan Wilson shook his head and said, “Alcohol this thing, as soon as you start trying to drink yourself unconscious. Oh, by the way, Margaret, you’re an adult, aren’t you? Would you like a drink?”

“I’m not more than a few years younger than you, how can I not be of age.” Margaret asked back defiantly, her young age already primed to embody the nature of people seeing annoyance.
