Chapter 996 – Backseat Congressman Thatcher
“Let’s build the large wind tunnel here.” Pamela Mountbatten, wearing a visor, selected the depression where the large wind tunnel would be built to be used as a necessity for development in the fighter jet field.
The development of fighter planes is not something that some shameful copyist can just copy out a shell and be done with it. Even if Alan Wilson was able to do it, the hurdle of a large wind tunnel test had to be passed.
Wind tunnel test for the fluid mechanics aspect of the wind tunnel experiment refers to an aerodynamic experiment in the wind tunnel to place a model of a flying vehicle or other object, to study the flow of gas and its interaction with the model, in order to understand the aerodynamic characteristics of the actual flying vehicle or other object.
Having become Permanent Under-Secretary at the Foreign Office, there wasn’t much in the whole of Britain that could be called a secret from Alan Wilson.
He was able to do some sweeping of British aviation in his public capacity, with very dismal results, at which point he became deeply convinced that the existence of a large number of weapons of anti-human design in Britain was absolutely justified.
But on the other hand, the United Kingdom in the design of so many anti-human errors, can still come up with a passable product, visible Rollo company in the field of the engine to the credit, worthy of the twenty-first century, the United Kingdom a few take the national treasure of the company.
The world’s first wind tunnel in the United Kingdom, and many areas of the same situation of eating old money. The world’s first wind tunnel, in a sense, is also the oldest and smallest wind tunnel facilities. The United States and the Soviet Union invested heavily in wind tunnel facilities to achieve supremacy over Britain.
Britain and France were both top-ranked old aviation advanced countries before the Second World War, however, after the war they suddenly realized that they were lagging behind the U.S. and the Soviet Union, so both countries revitalized their efforts to catch up.
In the second year after the war, the French government decided to war and occupation scattered throughout the country’s research institutions organized together, the formation of the National Aerodynamic Research Agency, and in the Alpine hinterland began to create the Mordaunt test center, the world’s first-class high-power aerodynamic test wind tunnel equipment.
The UK’s actions are quite insincere compared to France’s, and in the spirit of the principle of sufficiency, they are still using old wind tunnels.
The man behind the female president of the Mountbatten Group, in turn, instructed his big-bellied wife to start the telegram for the establishment of the wind tunnel facility. Thus the current scene.
“Mr. Turing, are you able to establish a comprehensive wind tunnel facility? Funding is not a problem, I want the maximum wind tunnel that can theoretically reach the current technological conditions.” Pamela Mountbatten looked at Turing a few meters away and inquired, “Allen is very attached to this matter, I don’t want to disappoint him.”
“Mrs. Wilson, your bond is admirable.” Turing smiled and assured, “I will do everything I can to help.”
“Thank you so much, Alan has always said you are an English treasure. As for the two of us, husband and wife are one.” Pamela Mountbatten nodded with a smile, “You can just say if you have any difficulties, and I will definitely do my best to help.”
Just a few words of exchange, Pamela Mountbatten has been a little sleepy, veiled hand gently caressing the belly, greeted Marina to send herself back to Perth, she is over to conceive the next generation, as the body is getting heavier and heavier, in person should be terminated for the time being.
Aiden, the leader of the Conservative Party, is on his way to Buckingham Palace to accept the appointment of Queen Elizabeth, after which he will officially become the Prime Minister.
In the same state of euphoria as Aidan, there is a couple who, if Alan Wilson were here, he would recognize the chair of the campus Conservative Party, Lady Margaret, now Margaret Thatcher.
But he’s not here, he’s discussing a project with Hepburn about the human body exploring, forgetting about Mrs. Thatcher, who has become a backbench MP, the national treasure doesn’t smell good, the bulbous flower doesn’t smell good, it’s normal for a country girl to be forgotten.
“Darling, I did it.” Mrs. Thatcher, who also entered the House of Commons in this election, hugged her husband, “I’m grateful for your continued support, which has made my dream come true.”
“Congratulations, darling.” Denis Thatcher smiled and encouraged his ten year younger wife, the scenes of Mrs. Thatcher’s busy day until the early hours of the morning were still fresh in her mind, and now at last she was getting what she wanted.
With a wife who was only interested in politics, Dennis Thatcher was going to have to take care of the rest.
He didn’t have to work as hard as his father did when he was young, trying to sell alcohol, coal, lottery tickets and so on.
Whenever he switched to a new trade, he leafleted his friends, nailed a new brass plaque to his door, and talked about the future of the family business. The poor old man, who was old and weak and had suffered a lot, had to run for his life. In the morning stumbled to the city center, only his wife thought he went to the office. By dusk he came home dragging one step at a time.
Dennis Thatcher’s life was much richer than in his father’s day, but there were many extra burdens that came with running into a wife so obsessed with politics, but fortunately it was all worth it, and Mrs. Thatcher got what she wanted.
Arriving at Buckingham Palace, Aidan, the leader of the Conservative Party, officially became the new Prime Minister, when there was still some time to go before a formal cabinet was formed.
But the nail in the coffin was that Harold Wilson’s career as Foreign Secretary had come to an end with the defeat of the Labor Party. There is a new Foreign Secretary on the way here, a short window that will end with the formation of a new Cabinet.
For each department, who will be the new minister for their own department is the top priority that they all face together.
Other departments are fine, but on foreign policy, where the gap between the Conservatives and Labour is probably the widest, there could be a considerable test for diplomats in Whitehall.
What departmental ministers make it into the Cabinet depends on which areas the Prime Minister puts more emphasis on when he takes office, but it is inevitable that ministers from the departments of finance, home affairs, defense and foreign affairs will be Cabinet ministers.
Several giants within the Conservative Party, Harold Macmillan, Alec Douglas-Home and, Rab Butler, will inevitably have a place in the new government, just responsible for which department has not yet been officially announced.
Alan Wilson very much did not want Macmillan to come to the Foreign Office, because this brother’s mother is an American. According to the tradition of ancient China, people with this background are excluded from the princely line. But there is no such preoccupation in Britain.
The previous Tory bigwig with an American mother was none other than Churchill, who led the Admiralty in World War I and Britain in World War II.
Alan Wilson is not good and the cabinet secretary, he felt that this person has a problem, the current he does not have the strength to explicitly oppose a minister, can only hope that do not speculation come true.
To the new Prime Minister Aidan, Alan Wilson has nothing to say, this prime minister although drug addiction, but there is no clear evidence that he has a disloyal heart to the British Empire. Much later analysis suggests that Aiden just didn’t go with the times and still thought of Britain as the pre-war Empire of the Sunset.
Aiden went to the House of Commons after his official inauguration and announced that he would accept Labor’s mixed economic reforms of Britain, adopting a consensus political view of the issues that followed the Conservative Party’s reforms.
The Conservatives endorsed the welfare system while accepting a limited nationalization program and recognizing a certain range of planned economies.
Aidan took over as Prime Minister and acknowledged consensus politics in one of his first speeches in the House of Commons, then turned the tables and said he would form a cabinet immediately, and a few days later the new government was named.
Harold Macmillan, Alec Douglas-Home and, Rab Butler, the Tory giants, were listed, and Elu Wilson, who was just short of going to church services to avoid the choice of Macmillan, was appointed Foreign Secretary.
“It seems that in this part of England, God, his old man, apparently speaks less than myself.” Alan Wilson a face of mushy, for no reason to think of the lyrics of the Internationale, there has never been any savior, nor rely on the gods and emperors.
The new government took office, the United Kingdom ushered in a comeback of the Conservative Party, led by Prime Minister Aidan, Foreign Secretary Macmillan. This configuration is very distressing, if Aidan has a drug dependency as an excuse to make trouble, it is very likely that the successor is the number two person Macmillan.
Replace a prime minister who is a little too arrogant to see the situation with a hardcore pro-American prime minister? Then it would be better to concentrate on helping Aidan make a bit of a mark, while preventing don’t let this Prime Minister let himself go.
The new government was sworn in, and Alan Wilson found an opportunity to go to the House of Commons to see what was going on. There were knighthoods that were not allowed in the House of Commons, but Alan Wilson’s slave baronet was a commoner, and this restriction did not exist for him.
After many years, he once again met Lady Margaret, now a married woman, and now backbencher, Margaret Thatcher. Margaret Thatcher had sort of taken a major step into politics by joining the House of Commons and actually becoming a political figure, rather than the former campus Conservative Party chairman.
Although backbenchers are just ordinary MPs, the British electoral system essentially chooses the leader of the party to be Prime Minister.
This system leads to the fact that once a sufficient number of backbenchers rise up in arms, the prime minister can also be ousted, which is what happened to Margaret Thatcher when she eventually stepped down, so backbenchers don’t carry a lot of political weight.
Margaret Thatcher, who had just become a backbencher, faced her first test in the form of a gaze that left an indelible impression on her life, a gaze that did not move away even a little from the beginning of the discussion in the House of Commons until the end.
The two, who had not seen each other for years, one entering Whitehall and the other the House of Commons, met again on this occasion.
Alan Wilson had wanted to wait for the adjournment of the meeting and find an opportunity to say hello to Margaret, but the other party obviously did not give him this opportunity and left the House of Commons directly after the adjournment.
“What a pity.” Alan Wilson stifled a sigh for his old friend not being able to reunite, in fact, the two could have helped each other, there was absolutely no need to make such a stalemate, but I believe that there is still a chance to meet in the future, but the opportunity to cast a PUA, uh, to explain the misunderstanding.
