Chapter 190 Ellen the Feminist
Although it was an impromptu idea, in order to preserve his great image in front of Pamela Mountbatten, Ellen Wilson was prepared to do battle against the feudal dross of British India, and in the process, to discredit the Indians in the world.
If that could not be done, first the reputation of the Indians in the British colonies would be corrupted.
Mere corruption that can only be called slander, for the true British gentleman, must have a positive role, there is a negative role in order to have a sense of reality, Alan Wilson has already booked the positive role.
When the British Empire went to war against India’s long-standing tradition of self-immolation of widows, it finally eradicated the cultural traditions of Hindus that had been passed down in South Asia for thousands of years, although it did not change the fact that widows were looked down upon, but it was always a good thing.
He was also not prepared to bring about a sea change in British India, and in his heart he had already predetermined the failure of this big move.
The purpose of doing so was simply to accentuate the positive international image of Britain and, incidentally, to stomp the international image of the Indians into the Marianas Trench.
How it was done is a good question; any kind of mass movement inevitably expands as soon as it starts.
Alan Wilson could not have succeeded in wiping out the feudal dross of India, but couldn’t it have failed? Perhaps the day when failure is officially admitted will make many Indians rejoice and triumph over the British colonizers in this matter.
Before leaving, the Assistant Commissioner of British India, decided to make customized hats for the Indians as a rape superpower, so that in the future, when people in other countries think of India, they will be able to think of this impression.
After repeated assurances, Pamela Mountbatten finally believe Alan Wilson, this time ready to really do battle against backward customs in British India, with a little anticipation asked, “Can it work?”
Certainly not! Alan Wilson said with a sincere look, “Yes, I am willing to give one hundred percent.”
What to take to succeed, even if 100,000 British civil servants are out to arrest, but also can not catch many people, British India’s population in the end no one knows how much, even if it can not catch up with the Republic of China, I guess it is not much worse.
But Alan Wilson would dare to make this guarantee, although the action is doomed to failure, but want to make things sensational is much simpler, catch a few tens of thousands of people shot, followed by the announcement of the success of the stage, laying down the flag can be.
Taking advantage of Pamela Mountbatten, appeared this man is very important to me this feeling at the same time, Allen Wilson came up and whispered, “Pamela, kiss, just a little.”
“Why are you like this.” Pamela Mountbatten squirmed, dodging Zhang’s approaching mouth.
Boo …… Alan Wilson vowed to bring all the rapists he caught to justice, to wage war on the thousands of years of Hindu tradition of disrespecting women, and temples that kept holy women, considering the presence of Brahmin elders in such temples, could be liberalized on one side, and exempted from imprisonment for a certain amount of money in fines.
This may even be a revenue generating move, this matter should be discussed with the judiciary in British India, we can’t use a big building program to make the administrative officials rake in the money and let the judicial officials watch, this is also not conducive to the unity of the civil service community.
Judicial officials are an important part of the British Indian civil service, naturally also originated in the East India Company period, and even just started, as an exchange with the East India Company, the appointment of the Governor and his Council of Counselors to the King, the British government can then use this to influence the rule of the company. Prior to this time the judicial power was vested exclusively in the Company.
It was only after the Act of 1773, when the Viceroy established the Supreme Court at Calcutta, which was the King’s court, consisting of a Chief Justice and three judges, all appointed by the King, to hear cases of the Company’s employees and British subjects in India, that the judicial power reverted to the Viceroy.
The new assistant commissioner mended his ways with sincerity, apologizing for his foolishness in thinking only of the executive officers at the beginning and forgetting the judicial officers, so after preparing Christmas presents for the executive officers, he entered the Supreme Court of British India with New Year’s Day presents, a solo pleasure.
At the same time as the Assistant Commissioner stepped through the doors of the Supreme Court of British India, Edward Bridges, Cabinet Secretary, 10 Downing Street, Prime Minister Adderley’s official residence, handed in his outlook on the great building program in British India and his assessment of the economic boost to the British mainland.
“Isn’t it a little too Soviet?” Prime Minister Adderley asked with some misgivings after reading it, “It’s hard not to be reminded of such a plan when it was, and is, the Soviet Five Year Plan.”
“It is not the same, Honorable Prime Minister. This one plan is our British plan.” Edward Bridges mused for a moment and opened his mouth, “To say that it is not the same, this is mainly from a macroscopic point of view, according to the different foundations of different places, which will ultimately lead to the emergence of subtle differences in the whole thing, looking at the overall burden of the whole situation rather than focusing on the basic rules of a certain individual, logically speaking, all things in the world are connected, and the emergence of two more or less similar approaches is very normal, just as it is with drinking, the British love whisky, are also respecting the right of the Soviets to love vodka, we are not saying that only whisky is a drink and vodka is not.”
“So in regards to this specific plan, certain places may have similar effects to the Soviet Union, but that doesn’t prove that it’s called Sovietization, as nationalization is now, only the rednecks in the U.S. are making a fuss about it, and even the current opposition party isn’t putting a damper on your claims of nationalization, Prime Minister.”
“I would have expected you to object.” Prime Minister Adderley finished digesting Edward Bridges’ arguments before laughing, “Nationalization, after all, was met with quite a bit of dissent.”
“I respect all of the Prime Minister’s instructions and am willing to cooperate as much as possible.” Edward Bridges flatly said, “Specifically, in order to meet the needs of British India, while releasing out some of the technical input to British India, for the current local economy can be collected is a giant very big boost, if the local industry can’t be satisfied for a while, but also let the British Occupation Zone to help, anyway, now the British Occupation Zone’s economic policy is also in the Trade Commission’s hands, and as soon as Britain comes out of the war quagmire, there is a chance of putting the problem to rest.”
“Good, and now it’s comforting to know that the Soviet Union is withdrawing its troops from Iran as planned.” Prime Minister Adderley nodded, “The Americans are caught up in Asia for the time being, whether it’s the Korean Peninsula, the fight over Hokkaido, or mediation with China.”
“But it’s always a good idea to watch out for the Indians, who I’ve always felt have ambitions that don’t match their capabilities.”
If Alan Wilson were here, he would have exclaimed, Churchill? Can’t! Ed Riley would! The comments about the Indians in particular are almost right on the money. Very much in keeping with India’s post-Independence style.
“Ambition has to have the conditions for realization, and as things stand, people in many places have some way to go before they can realize their ambitions.” Edward Bridges is not Prime Minister Airdrie, who knows the situation in British India now very well, and has specifically already inquired, what the PML-N stands for as well as what it is determined to do.
The situation in British India now is not at all what the Parliamentary Lords said in Parliament, how to retain the integrity of British India, the possibility of this is almost gone.
While Edward Bridges was thinking so, Prime Minister Adderley also said this at the same time, “Isn’t it true that a lot of the media is a little bit too liberal in its coverage of the Parliament, that decisions on British India are leaking out so easily, and by the way, isn’t it true that there is too much coverage of British India lately, and it is very negative.”
“I think the negativity may be to the Indians.” Edward Bridges stated nonchalantly, “Regarding all the bad habits of the Indians, I personally think that it will only increase Britain’s efforts in leading the backward regions, and being able to be understood by the majority of the citizens is not necessarily a bad thing.”
As the Cabinet Secretary’s most favored young back in British India, Alan Wilson is also preparing for war with such bad habits.
For this purpose the understanding of the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of British India must necessarily be sought, and first of all it must be ascertained that the other party is an Englishman.
Once established it was time to talk it over, and on hearing that Allen Wilson had decided to declare war on cases of injury to women, Justice Clarke said noncommittally, “Cases of this kind are not generally reported by Indians, and there is not enough evidence to show that they are worth much trouble.”
“In fact, according to the law of the land, how can the existence of temples keeping holy women be permitted under the rule of the British Empire?” Alan Wilson said tautly, “What a price we paid to prohibit widows from setting themselves on fire back in the day, but that generation of British Indian civil servants were widely acclaimed. Now that the status of British India is unknown and no one can see a future, if we are bound to go, why can’t we leave a small but honorable legacy?”
“Ellen, you’re a feminist?” Clark cocked his head questioningly, “But I admit you have a point, we are supposed to be doing something to make India less ugly.”
“That’s a wise decision.” Alan Wilson bowed his head slightly and said, “In fact the fines imposed on certain temples could be used to set up a women’s foundation dedicated to focusing on women’s issues in India, on the premise of applying to London. Of course the amount of this fine, and what percentage to take out and put into the women’s foundation, I have no suggestions.”
From Paris, Allen Wilson saved the humiliated women of France, and in Bonn he established the German Women’s Working Labor Bureau.
Now in New Delhi, he is still trying to make a name for himself starting with women’s emancipation, but it’s all about getting the support of British Indian judicial officials.
