Chapter 264

"The success rate of 5% is too low, and once Yuri can come out of the retreat, all our efforts will become meaningless."

After thinking for a moment, Prime Minister Braun rubbed his brows and replied.

Minister Bond on the side frowned, and reminded meaningfully: "My lord, this is a matter appointed by the upper and lower parliaments and Queen Victoria.

The result is not whether we succeed, but whether we do it or not!

Of course, as long as we don't fail too much, we can all confess the past. "

After Prime Minister Braun heard these words, he immediately had the illusion that he had become a scapegoat reserve. You must know that three prime ministers have stepped down under the hands of Yuri!
When the American Confederation was victorious, the British changed their cabinet. When the British expedition to North America was defeated, the British changed their cabinet again. When the South American strategy collapsed, the British still changed their cabinet...

Then the situation of the Anglo-Afghan war made the British change the cabinet again!
It is this series of cabinet changes that have made politicians deeply realize that although the cabinet position holds great power, is it not a ready-made scapegoat?

In the previous series of failures, many decisions were pressured and influenced by the British royal family, but when they failed, how could they not see the shadow of the British royal family?
All those public opinions blamed the cabinet one by one, leading the public to criticize, and no one questioned the British royal family!
Of course, the current Prime Minister Braun does not dare to go against the will of the British royal family.

The constitutional system of false monarchs does put the monarch under the constitution, but other people are still under the monarch!

Prime Minister Braun is not the ignorant people outside who would naively think that the cabinet has more power than the royal family...

The so-called constitutional system of false monarchs is nothing more than allowing the royal family to move from the foreground to the background. The influence of the royal family in the government has never been lower!
If the monarch really lost the slightest bit of rights, he would have been overthrown long ago...

After all, no one likes to have an uncle on top of their head to support and serve them.

Not overturning it does not mean that politicians have discovered their conscience, but that they cannot do it!
Of course, the constitutional system of false monarchs has a certain degree of binding force on the monarch, and the constitution is the dividing line, so it is still fundamentally different from the autocratic monarchy system.

The autocratic monarchy system is actually similar to those real monarchy constitutional systems.

It's just that the former doesn't have a fig leaf, and the latter puts one on himself...

Even in Britain during Yuri's previous life, the royal family had strong political, economic and even military influence. It can be said that the royal family's advice was indispensable behind all major events in the UK.

The so-called rubber stamp is just a double act played by the royal family and the government. If you don’t promote yourself as a rubber stamp, how can you take the blame?
Therefore, the constitutional system of the virtual monarch is still useful to the monarch, at least it will not allow the monarch to be overthrown by the revolution.

It is very easy to transfer the object of public hatred from the monarch to the government cabinet. The big deal is that there will be a change of term. Anyway, there are plenty of politicians. No matter how many times the government changes, there will be no shortage of people who want to be officials.

Although Prime Minister Braun was unwilling, he still agreed to the plan recommended by Minister Bond for the sake of the overall situation and his position.

Because he knew that this plan was already a mature version, that is, approved by the royal family!
Of course, whether the royal family nods or not can’t be said publicly. In the public administration process, it was the cabinet represented by Prime Minister Braun who signed the plan, and it has nothing to do with the royal family. Queen Victoria It is impossible to leave evidence!

If Prime Minister Braun can get the House of Lords and the House of Commons to stand in line with him and jointly oppose the royal family's decision, he may be able to fight against it.

However, God knows how many people in the parliament are loyalists of the royalist party. It is too idealistic to let the House of Commons stand beside the cabinet to fight against the royal family...

At least in this era, Prime Minister Braun wouldn't even dare to think about it.

Once Prime Minister Braun tries to turn the Crown into a real rubber stamp, the next day there will be an impeachment from the opposition party in the House of Lords!

The bad history of Prime Minister Braun will be exposed like shit under the eyes of a group of eye-catching flies. After all, who doesn't want to sit in the position of Prime Minister?
In this era, no one who is an official has a clean ass. Even if they clean themselves up, their family members and friends will use the official relationship to seek benefits for themselves in society.

This is like two businessmen negotiating a business at the same time. One businessman has a high bid but has an ordinary background, and the other has a low bid but is the prime minister’s brother-in-law. How do you choose?

It is not necessary for the brother-in-law to take the initiative to bring out the relatives of the prime minister behind him, as long as the other party knows the identity of the brother-in-law, they already have the answer in their hearts.

The idea of ​​official standard is not only popular in Yuri's previous life's hometown, but the whole world is like a bird.

At most, the depth is different.

After the document signed by Prime Minister Braun was released, the London government immediately started to operate at full capacity. The old enemy of the Sauron Empire was not hated by anyone in the British Empire.

Of course, most hate is actually mixed with inner fear.

They worried that if the Sauron Empire continued to grow, it would threaten the world hegemony of the British Empire.

No, to be precise, the Sauron Empire spanned the North and South American continents, and it has already seriously threatened the world hegemony of the British Empire!
In the eyes of the British government, if Yuri hadn't been born, North America should be the backyard of the British.

And the declining South American colonies can also become British economic colonies!
Even with the decline of the Kingdom of Spain to a certain extent, the British can support the independence of South America and disperse into a bunch of small countries, and carry out low-cost economic colonization through diplomatic means, so that South America can completely become the raw material supplier of the heart of British industry.

However, the establishment of the Sauron Empire destroyed everything, and the global trading system of the British Empire was greatly impacted!

Although the British trade blockade against the Sauron Empire has kept the Sauron Empire in financial difficulty, if it weren't for the war dividends and plunder, the government would have gone bankrupt countless times.

But the British themselves feel better?

Making money from trade is a win-win situation. Without the cheap raw materials from the American continent, the British can only make up for it from other colonies, which greatly increases the freight cost. The source and quality of the goods are not as good as the raw materials provided by the American continent!

This undoubtedly caused the British Empire's fiscal revenue to shrink significantly.

Fortunately, the British still have two cash cows, the Nanyang Empire and the Indian Empire. They are rich and powerful, and if they lose money, they will consume it with the Sauron Empire.

While the British were transporting arms to South America one by one, Yuri finally arrived at the mainland of this world empire!
