Chapter 528 – Labor’s Big Win

Norman Brooke was right, Airdrie did know immediately that the Alloy Tube Project was complete, five years of energy and money had been invested in the Airdrie Cabinet to relaunch the Alloy Tube Project, literally the biggest money swallowing behemoth apart from the nationalization campaign, and today it had finally come to fruition.

Now, unlike in 1945, in addition to maintaining the Labour Party’s campaign proposition of 1945, which was the goal of a Socialist Community of Great Britain, there was the goal of making Britain great again.

Boosting Britain’s post-war majesty to reverse the decline, so it was necessary to discuss with the Labour Party Cabinet Ministers whether to announce the news, and Adderley also listened to his colleagues, after all, it was now too close to the date of the election, and there was a possibility of creating a negative impression if it was leaked out.

“Of course it is announced, I personally believe that it is also a way of showing that we can not only do good home affairs like the voters’ impression, but also defend the interests of the British Empire like the Conservative Party.” Ernest Bevin supports the immediate announcement of this, “Anyway, it’s only a matter of a formal trial, and it’s not a matter of deceiving the electorate that we test it immediately after this election.”

Ernest Bevin, as Foreign Secretary, understands very well the importance of nuclear weapons to the current UK.

The Labour Party’s ruling Adderley Cabinet has not been too active in its decolonization policy on the colonial issue.

It can be said that there is basically no fundamental contradiction between the Labor Party and the Conservative Party on the colonial issue, but the difference lies in the details of some policies.

Not to mention the tin and rubber mines in British Malaya, just past 1949, Britain’s oil imports from Saudi Arabia, Iraq and Iran were roughly three times the size of oil imports from other regions, and these oil companies in Saudi Arabia, Iraq and Iran are basically all British-owned oil companies. The Labour ministers understand very well the support of these colonies and protectorates to the British economy and employment.

The Labor Party of this era is, in fact, a Conservative, except that it can be a one-state Conservative. Just as Stalin’s establishment of Communism in one country overcame Trotsky’s world revolution.

Labour’s One Nation Conservatives were more focused on issues of fairness at home than the Conservatives were, but their gaze was also limited to home; how things were going abroad and in the colonies was of no concern to most Labour ministers.

The Labour Cabinet likewise wants to restore Britain’s majesty, or it would not have endorsed Ernest Bevin’s campaign slogan for the current campaign, Make Britain Great Again. This slogan is already very obvious.

The successful completion of the current alloy tube program has lifted the spirits of the Labor Party Cabinet, and the completion of a project means that no more huge investment is needed to support it, and Britain’s imperial interests are guaranteed, and it can also save money, which is an absolutely good thing.

The news that Britain had completed the construction of nuclear weapons finally appeared in the newspapers, for which the Conservative Party questioned, after all, the restarting of the alloy tube program was something that the Conservative Party, which had long since been reduced to the opposition party, could not possibly be aware of. It was a reboot that took place only after Adderley became Prime Minister.

But the news hitting the press made one of Labour’s two main claims, the Make Britain Great Again slogan, seem all the more real. It brought a new twist to the electorate, but what the final result will be will only be known on the day of the general election.

February was actually extremely important for Alan Wilson as well, as Norman Brooke had hinted earlier that the term of office of the High Commissioner of British Malaya, Gerald Edward, was up, and whether he would stay on or transfer out was extremely important to him, a social agent who had always wanted to work in Malaya.

Objectively speaking, how big a country can grow is directly related to the country’s geographical location and resource endowment. First of all, from the geographical location, it is undeniable that the Soviet Union and the United States are rich in natural resources and mineral resources, able to carry a larger population.

In terms of resource endowment, although it is true that many resource-poor countries can rely on purchasing or even plundering foreign resources to support their own development, but in the final analysis, the long-term development of the country still depends on itself.

As a medium-sized country, the United Kingdom’s own conditions are not bad, coal and iron ore are available, which is not yet considered to be the discovery of the North Sea oil, in the European countries are considered to be very all-round countries.

However, when compared with the United States and the Soviet Union, the United Kingdom does not have many advantages. Britain has a small land area, a lack of resources and a small population.

So the current vast colonies, must find a way to keep some of them, otherwise in the future there is no way to play. For this purpose, Alan Wilson felt that he could be friends with anyone, as long as the conditions allowed.

That’s why he didn’t want Indonesia to be on the side of the U.S. He wanted to unite with Australia to turn Indonesia into a pro-Soviet country under heavy pressure, and he was acting under the banner of General Mountbatten like a soft touch, constantly clearing the way for Pamela Mountbatten’s path to wealth, all for this purpose.

He’s helping Pamela Mountbatten as much as he can right now, and he’s also hoping to borrow his fiancée’s growing financial power later on to offset the route of turning Britain into a financial city. So far it may not have had much effect, but given time, who’s to say another route couldn’t be taken.

It’s enough to have a Japan in this world, and isn’t there any shame in comparing a country like Britain, which used to dominate the world, to Japan?

In February 1950, the first post-war general election in Britain in the true sense of the word began, with supporters of the Conservative and Labor parties coming out of their homes and taking out their votes to determine the party that would run Britain for the next five years.

Both the Labor Cabinet and the Conservative Party as a challenger, whether it was Adderley, the mediocrity in Churchill’s eyes, or Churchill, the egomaniac in Adderley’s eyes, took this general election extraordinarily seriously.

This election was different from the one in 1945, although many polls indicated that the Conservatives would not win easily. But even Churchill himself didn’t think he would lose his pants.

This time was completely different, after several years in opposition, Churchill was well prepared for this election. At least he felt sure he was better prepared than last time.

In fact, it was Churchill himself who thought so, in these two years alone, Alan Wilson could think of the Socialist International, Make Britain Great Again, the introduction of nuclear weapons, and he didn’t even count the three rings of diplomacy he had copied over and sent to Prime Minister Airdrie.

If he hadn’t been a civil servant who couldn’t show which party he was leaning towards, he would now want to go and instruct Aidley on how to lead the Labor Party to victory over the Tories without having to say anything else, just lay out the fact that Churchill was the Father of the Soviet Union.

The logical chain of events for the Father of the Soviet Union went like this: British seizure of battleships – the Goebben incident – Ottoman entry into the war – Imperial Russia in the midst of an Allied siege –Failure of Gallipoli –The blockade continues –The total political, military and economic collapse of Imperial Russia –The February Revolution -October Revolution with a bang -Soviet Union emerges.

It all started when Churchill, then as Secretary of State for the Admiralty, decided that the Ottoman Empire, the boss of peace teaching for centuries, was less valuable than two battleships.

To this day he couldn’t think of any other cards Churchill could have played. On February 22, Alan Wilson took his fiancée Pamela Mountbatten out to vote, and after a long queue at the polling place, the two of them, arm in arm, cast their votes in favor of the Labor Party.

Only Alan Wilson didn’t notice that an acquaintance just happened to see him today, Ms. Margaret, the chairwoman of the school’s Conservative Party, just happened to see the scene.

On that day, February 22, over twenty-six million people across mainland Britain stepped out of their homes to join the first post-war general election to determine the direction of British politics for the next, theoretically, five years.

Newspapers of all stripes analyzed the outcome of the election, with the Labour Party and the Conservative Party each having their own fans.

The UK mainland is not that big, and one day is enough to decide the outcome of the election, which is becoming more and more obvious as the results come in from the major polling stations.

Almost a replica of the 1945 election, the Labor Party was way ahead from the beginning, and reached 330 seats first, and was already sure of victory, and the rest of the time was just a question of how much to win.

By the next day, the entire general election had come to a close, and the Labor Party had won a big victory, capturing three hundred and eighty-eight seats, five seats less than the 1945 general election, but still a resounding victory.

At the end of the election, the Labor Party proved that the victory in 1945 was no accident, and it once again defeated the Conservative Party to gain an absolute majority in the House of Commons of the United Kingdom.

It’s just not clear just how much of this victory has been the effect of the news that Britain is in possession of nuclear weapons.

The victory has been decided, boisterous and noisy for more than a month of the British election came to an end, Alan Wilson put his arm around his fiancée’s shoulder, embodying the usual style of hitting the losers hard, and did not mince words of ridicule, “My dear, do you think that Churchill will be discouraged and quit the political arena?”

“You tell me, dear!” Snuggled in Alan Wilson’s arms, she rubbed the man’s chest and whispered, “Judging by the man’s consistency, he never fought to the end.”

“That makes sense!” Alan Wilson nodded in understanding, then blurted out, “Poor Aiden.”

As a politician, Aiden had been a Conservative Party giant since before the war, and as a result, Churchill had been relying on the Conservative Party leader’s position not to leave, making Aiden, who had long been groomed as the Crown Prince, delayed in advancing further.

“Celebrate, my dear!” Alan Wilson, who was not paying attention to the results of the general election, spoke while his hands were not idle, removing the restraints from Pamela Mountbatten’s body.

“That’s how you celebrate?” Although her mouth said so, Pamela Mountbatten still adjusted her body along with her fiancé’s hands, letting the bonds on her body be lifted as early as possible, the day is better to live a more fulfilling life, so that it is soothing.
