British civil servant

Work-for-relief, Keynesianism, Alan Wilson felt that after passing this village, there would be no such shop, and while the British shipbuilding industry was still doing well, he would get on the horse as soon as he could.

"Sir, of course we pay attention to the shipbuilding industry, and we also pay attention to the employment of shipbuilders." Dennis Healey, just then the phone from the Ministry of Defense rang.

Makins went to answer the phone, "Is the Secretary-General there? Something happened. The Pakistani side declared the general election illegal. Diplomats from the consulate in Dhaka said that bloody conflicts broke out between the Bangladeshis who took to the streets to protest and the military."

"And then there was the financial summit in Washington, where Japan responded with a bow and apology for our disregard for pro-property rights and currency manipulation."

"Bow down and apologize, and I will not change it." Alan Wilson got up and walked out directly, and turned back at the door, "Makins, complete the construction plan of the destroyer fleet."

The first thousand 380 nine chapters beauty trap

The role of the destroyer fleet is very important. Without the cover of the destroyer fleet, the aircraft carrier is really a target.

As for the British Royal Navy, it doesn’t need to learn from the US Navy, but insists on nuclear power. The national conditions of the two countries are different. If the United States can really build an all-nuclear fleet, then naturally there is nothing to say. It must be higher than the British Royal Navy. first gear.

But the U.S.’s all-nuclear fleet is impossible. The combat radius of the U.S. Navy depends on how far the destroyer fleet can run, not how far the nuclear-powered aircraft carrier can run. The wooden barrel theory, the shortcomings determine the overall performance, not the strengths No matter how far the nuclear power runs, it cannot be separated from the destroyer fleet to act on its own.

"Okay, Secretary-General." Makins raised his hand, indicating that everything was on him, and watched the supreme authority leave.

Dennis Healey couldn't help but get tired of seeing this. He is the real Minister of Defense, not the Secretary-General of the Cabinet, "Makins, it seems that you all attach great importance to the development of armaments. Has there ever been a minister of defense who told you about the development of armaments? Should enough be enough?"

"Disarmament?" Makins heard Dennis Healey's words, and immediately recalled, "But at that time, I was not the permanent undersecretary of the Ministry of Defense. I heard that the Conservative Party's Defense Secretary Duncan had such thought, that was a long time ago."

Yahya Khan, the leader of the Pakistani military, blatantly overturned the general election that had already had a result.Although Saddam was cheating, he still pretended to have a high approval rating, but Yahya Khan didn't even say anything.

The congratulatory documents from the UK have already been sent out, but Yahya Khan overturned this decision, which is undoubtedly a slap in the face of the UK, which is unbearable.

As the prime minister of a world power, Harold Wilson still feels overwhelmed by this outcome, even though it has been discussed before.

Alan Wilson was in this situation. When he arrived at No. [-] Downing Street, this matter should have been discussed with the Foreign Secretary. It was aimed at Japan, and now only Alan Wilson, who is also the executive deputy minister, is left in London.

"Prime Minister, it seems that there has been a result that we did not expect." When Alan Wilson came, he happened to meet the Prime Minister's expression of concern, and immediately said, "We have tried our best to maintain peace. You can have a clear conscience."

"Since you can't afford to lose, don't start a general election." Harold Wilson cursed the military leader Yahya Khan, what is this?What else can I get?

Alan Wilson knew that the prime minister was afraid of affecting the approval rate, but it didn't matter, as long as the final result was good, it would not affect the Labor Party's approval rate. "Britain has done everything. It is Pakistan's own problem, but maybe It will be seized by India."

"You mean that India will take the opportunity to attack Pakistan?" Harold Wilson pondered for a while. "Indeed, this possibility was conceived at the beginning. How about Indira?"

"Iron Lady with a strong wrist." Alan Wilson did not hide his opinion, and highly admired Indira Gandhi's style.

After several years, Indira Gandhi has settled the internal constraints of the Congress Party, won the support of the general public inside and outside the party with his left-wing image, and introduced some radical measures.

Restraining the economic activities of large consortiums, forcing the implementation of a new industrial license system, expanding production by monopoly consortiums, and opening up new products to establish new enterprises all require government approval.

In his memory, few people touch family planning in electing countries, but Indira Gandhi really implemented it, and it changed the propaganda and education during the Nehru period, and implemented it in a very radical way. Simply put, Sterilizing people, sterilizing 400 million people in one year, the method is unheard of.Does old fairy Modi dare to do this?He was too scared to do that.

However, Alan Wilson still did not explain to the Prime Minister that the impact of the India-Pakistan war this time was that India completely adopted a pro-Soviet policy, and only dared to dismember the pro-American Pakistan through its tying up with the Soviet Union.

From India's point of view, India does not need an ally of a maritime power at all, and a maritime power is of no use to help India.

Later generations of India have always resisted the pressure of the United States and refused to condemn Russia, because Russia is a powerful country in the army, and the United States is stronger than the navy.Even if a Russian soldier does not come out, it will be useful. Even if the United States sends a navy across two oceans, it will not help India.

Even if Russia is only half of the national power of the United States, India doesn't need Russia to say anything, and it will post it by itself. Obviously, the Soviet Union in this era has the strength to attract India.

However, in front of the current British Prime Minister, it is hard for him to say that Britain is about to lose India. It is useless to say it, and it can't change anything. The national attributes of the United Kingdom are just like the United States. It is a maritime power.

After deliberation, the two felt that it would be better to wait and see what happened. We, Great Britain, have led the world for hundreds of years, so naturally we do not lack strategic determination.

Of course, Harold Wilson also agreed that the British army in the Middle East and Far East should make some necessary contingency preparations, which are still being carried out secretly.

In the apartment, Xia Meng was busy preparing food, preparing to show her husband a man of the same status, and beside her was a boy who led the way. The boy had black hair and black eyes, but his outline had some mixed-race features, and he complained that he was only doing work for a while. , "Mom, is this considered child labor?"

"Stop talking nonsense, you are my son." Xia Meng put on a mother's majesty on her face, and kept the spoon in her hand, stirring simple dishes, scrambled eggs with leeks.

The knock on the door just at this time made Xia Meng not care about continuing to be a cook, so she ran to open the door. A pack of wolfberries was handed in through the crack of the door. Alan Wilson said while changing his shoes, "Burn some water On this day, there are always countless things waiting for me."

"My son is back." Xia Meng reminded in a low voice, the red tide on her face showed that she was very embarrassed now.

"What's the matter? I'll be back when I come back." Alan Wilson didn't feel much at all, put down his briefcase and said, "Speaking of which, you should take care of it. It doesn't work if you always put it in Xiangjiang."

The head of the family is naturally dignified. Alan Wilson sat down directly and took out a newly published book in 1970, titled The American Emperor in the Wind and Storm, read it, and waited for dinner by the way.

In a certain sense, this kind of book can be seen from the name. It is a variant of the theory of the collapse of the United States. From this time to the Reagan period, it can be regarded as a period of high incidence of such books.The next time you want to see this kind of book become popular, it will be after the subprime mortgage crisis in [-].

After a while, Xia Meng cooked the meal and came to ask the head of the family to have dinner. When she saw the book in square characters, she couldn't help saying, "You still care about Dongfang beyond ordinary."

"Where is the population size, you think I'm an idiot like Washington, and you take it for granted that it's okay to pretend to be invisible?" Alan Wilson put down the book and followed Xia Meng, "But I admit that your country's foundation is still very good Yes, I heard that there is neither domestic nor foreign debt, so it can be said that the foundation has been laid, and now we need an opportunity.”

Having neither domestic debt nor foreign debt is indeed a portrayal of a big country at present. Regardless of whether the internal and external leverage is zero, this foundation is good. Anyway, Japan and Europe in later generations are burdened with huge debts, and Japan’s debt is rushing to [-]%. Now, there is no room for fiscal intervention in any situation. Even if the interest rate is raised by [-]%, the interest rate can make Japan unable to pay back. Does Japan like negative interest rates?There is no other way.

The family had a happy meal. Allen Wilson lit a cigar, enjoyed the smoke after the meal and said to Charlotte, "You need to change your accent. Xiangjiang's accent is not uncommon. Next time I see you If your accent is still so severe, I will give you a complete childhood."

"Understood, father." Charlotte's brow was sweating. He was still afraid of this father, and promised to change in a hurry.

"I'm not an adult yet, so I'll call you Sir first. Don't be an example!" Alan Wilson is still practicing the role of a strict father, and he didn't give Xia Meng's son any good face. "In the future, you are not allowed to speak English when you talk to me. My Chinese level is good enough to talk to you. .”

After eating, it was already late, and it was time for Xia Meng to counterattack and reckon. She squeezed into the man's arms to complain for her son, "I think you just don't like our mother and son."

"Don't make trouble, his world will be wider in the future." Alan Wilson didn't mean that Xia Meng guessed right at all, he had only just paid attention to this education issue, and after he paid attention to it, he discovered the problem, such as Albert Te, I've been in Rhodesia for several months now, and I don't know what I'm doing.

Unexpectedly, the old London father knew that the eldest son was almost too happy to leave now, lingering among the tall, red-lipped and white-toothed Slavic hairy girls.

It can’t be blamed that the heir of the supreme authority has never seen the market, and it’s all blamed for Grace’s deliberate calculation of the boy who is not deeply involved in the world and full of curiosity about the world. Didn’t the supreme authority say that as long as Rhodesia doesn’t Independence and marriage are definitely not a problem, so what are you waiting for?

The endless wilderness of Rhodesia has become the best chasing place for boys and girls, and the day is short of being a bed. Although London is approaching the end of the year at this time, the climate here is not cold at all. Albert just Feel the warmth of spring and flowers blooming, as if you are in a paradise.

"Sophia, wait for me." Albert looked like a big licking dog, following his instinct to chase the girl in his heart, and his dissatisfaction with his father's strict order to consider joining the army after a year also disappeared unconsciously.

"Hehe, Sir, if he has nothing to do, he will be tricked by someone. He knows it must be very interesting." Grace murmured proudly to his wife.

The first thousand and 390 chapters of the UAE plan

"It won't be a problem, Jazz's son doesn't seem to be old enough to start a family."

The wife expressed her objection. She had also seen the government-business couple, and she always felt that the Jazz was more talkative. The female president obviously had a different feeling. Although she was very approachable on the surface, she always felt a little distant.

"Honey, your judgment is correct. But what they say is Sir, don't ask me why, I don't know."

Although Grace's answer was in a firm tone, he himself felt that it was unreasonable. Why is it that Alan Wilson has the final say?Instead of Lady Pamela Mountbatten, the spiritual leader of the British nobility?

This Grace didn't know. As the head of the family, how could he have no capital? Of course he had capital, which was all placed in Newfoundland and Malaya, and it was not shown.

"We sent a message of condolences to the leader of the Pakistan People's Party, Ali Bhutto, and regretted the twists and turns in the election." At No. [-] Downing Street, Alan Wilson was reporting the diplomatic actions to implement the Prime Minister's will, although things in East Pakistan were more acute!

Therefore, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs chose to appease the Pakistan People's Party, which is the first party in West Pakistan.

Out of previous life memories, Alan Wilson also happened to have an impression of Ali Butuo, an existence similar to the father of the nation who was killed by the military government.

It is true that Ali Jinnah is the father of Pakistan, but his status is actually similar to that of Gandhi. Pakistan died of illness when it was first established, and his image only exists in symbols.

The Pakistani military government has lasted for such a long time, and Ali Bhutto was the first democratically elected government to come to power. After losing East Pakistan, he began to reform Pakistan.But because of the issue of land reform, Ali Bhutto was still hanged by the military government of the coup.

Although the country of Pakistan also has an electoral system, the largest force in the country is the military. People like Yahya Khan appear one after another.Constantly being in the middle of the democratically elected government and the military government, such swinging left and right is the most harmful to the country, and it is not as good as the democratically elected government in India.It's very simple, even if the United States continues to switch between the king of understanding for four years and the king of sleep for four years, the United States can't stand it.

"It expresses our concern without arousing resentment. Well done." Harold Wilson nodded in praise, expressing his approval for the operation of the cabinet secretary and the slime.

Congratulations to the Pakistan People's Party can also avoid provoking Yahya Khan on the sharp East Pakistan issue, but it is not doing nothing.

"Of course, Prime Minister." Alan Wilson accepted the compliment, we should probably do something about it, but nothing can be done.

The report on East Pakistan cannot start now, and the intensity of the report must be controlled.Any receiving information has a period of fatigue, and the same is true for war information. If we follow up and report on a large area now, when the time comes when public opinion is really needed, British citizens have a period of fatigue, and public opinion will not be able to be aroused.

Zesheng also knows this truth, so he keeps using his actor's instincts to create a sense of presence for his government in the world, fearing that Ukraine will be forgotten, and once he is forgotten, he will end up miserable.

Today's British newspapers can report on the situation in East Pakistan, but they are only fulfilling the duty of freedom of information, and cannot add subjective judgments, especially not to publish irritating photos.Incendiary stories are published only when the government wants them to.

The issue of Pakistan has come to an end. Regarding the G[-] meeting held by the United States, it is also a major event that the United Kingdom is currently paying close attention to.

The conditions of the United States have been brought out. The U.S. dollar has depreciated by 7.89% against gold, and the official price of gold per ounce has been raised from $35 to $38 an ounce; the exchange rate parity has been adjusted, and the U.S. dollar has depreciated by an average of [-]%, while other major European and American currencies have appreciated The allowable range of fluctuations of non-reserve currencies against the U.S. dollar was adjusted from plus or minus [-] percent to plus or minus [-] percent; the US government canceled the [-] percent temporary import surcharge.

This condition looks quite good. People who don't know the truth think that the United States is still doing its best to maintain the Bretton Woods system, and it is not as drastic as the depreciation of $[-] an ounce that the French said before.

In fact, on the contrary, Alan Wilson came up with his own judgment for the prime minister, "If it is really one to seventy, then it means that the United States will continue to maintain the Bretton Woods system. This kind of subtle adjustment proves that the United States is only For the time being, the last exchange of US dollars, according to subsequent investigations, used 800 billion US dollars, which is enough to empty the Fed's gold reserves three times. The depreciation from 35:[-] to [-]:[-] will not solve the problem. How? It takes one to one hundred to balance hedging such a huge dollar.”

"If the United States wants to renege on its debts, it can do it, but now the United States has chosen to renege on its debts in fact, but it does not admit its repudiation. This is very subtle."

"Of course, we cannot withdraw our troops from the Middle East." Harold Wilson knew what the cabinet secretary wanted to say, and this issue had already been discussed last time.

"About the road map for the Middle East, that is, the long-term preservation of British interests in the Middle East, we have some plans. The Prime Minister can look at them and make a judgment based on them." Alan Wilson said, and with the consent of the Prime Minister, he took it over .

In fact, it is a merger. Merger is very much in line with the traditional British management of colonies. However, when the time came to 1970, many people believed that partition was not an option.

But for those emirs in the Middle East, Alan Wilson still believes that the merger, that is, the UAE model, is the most suitable. If they are allowed to be independent, it will only distract the attention of the British army in the Middle East. Even if these emirates merge, it is not one. A country with sufficient size is not a big country in terms of population and area, and it is still within the radiation of the UK's national power, so the method of merging is not bad.

According to this plan, the new United Arab Emirates includes Bahrain and Qatar, Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Sharjah, Ras Al Khaimah, Ajman, Fujairah, and Umm Al Quwain, a total of nine British protectorates. Incorporate a new country called the UAE.

After the establishment of the United Arab Emirates, it will be neighbors with Oman, which is also a British protectorate. There is also an enclave problem, that is, the Musandam Province of Oman. The Musandam Province will be separated by the new United Arab Emirates and become an enclave. Disconnected enclaves on land.

Musandam Province is actually very important. Later generations of Iran will block the Strait of Hormuz at every turn, but the western salient part of the strait exit is Musandam Province.If a military base is built here, it will be able to control the world's energy channels. Tankers filled with oil in the Persian Gulf will pass through here whether they are going east to the Asia-Pacific or west to Europe and the United States.

And the Strait of Hormuz, which connects the Persian Gulf and the Gulf of Oman, is called the gate of oil depots and the throat of the world.Musandam Province.It is like a sharp sword inserted into the Strait of Hormuz. The strategic location is very important. As long as you want to, you can close the strait through Musandam at any time.

Strictly speaking, the current British sphere of influence in the Middle East does not count as Iraq. Of course, the relationship between the Iraqi royal family and the UK is good, which is also true.The three places where the garrison remains, Kuwait, the upcoming UAE, and Oman, are the three places where Britain can still control the situation.

Harold Wilson was very interested in this plan. Retaining the local British influence was the top priority, and there was no safer way than the existence of military bases.

The Prime Minister has to make a wise judgment. Of course, Alan Wilson can't stay here to interfere. He left No. [-] Downing Street and went home to continue his education plan.It's not that he has a preference for children, so he pays special attention to Xia Meng's children, but that he has only one child who is suitable to be a waver of reform and opening up.

It is not appropriate to let Vivien Leigh's son make a high-level comment that we Chinese are too powerful from time to time.

"This war is not over yet." Xia Meng sat on the reserved spot between the man's legs, leaned up against Alan Wilson's shoulder, and watched the news with a man of the same status as her husband.

Xia Meng thinks that this man is a bit old-fashioned, and he is not interested in any entertainment projects, so he pays attention to the news column, but what can she do, she is already like this, so she cautiously makes a suggestion, "Warrior Challenge and the battle between the city" The program is also very good.”

"Isn't that a program produced by Vivienne?" Alan Wilson answered absently, and then said complacently, "You don't know, it is a program designed by me. Fans of these two programs should thank me, pawn Star, Forging Knife Contest, Hercules Competition, you haven't seen these programs yet, it doesn't matter, when Vivienne is ready, they will appear in the future."

The supreme authority is also worried about the spiritual food of the British citizens. He is busier than the prime minister. It is definitely not just talking. Two popular programs are being promoted in European and American countries at the same time.Scholars who talk about soft power just want to have fun, and the supreme authority is an expert in soft power.

"If you have time to go to Australia, you can also watch the women's rugby match, which is sponsored by Pamela." Allen Wilson suggested, embracing Xia Meng's body.

It has also stimulated the enthusiasm of Australians for sports and strengthened the physique of Australians. If British citizens do not object, they can land in the UK at an appropriate time.

At this time, the TV screen changed, and a familiar face appeared. Wick impassionedly attacked Japan's trade protectionism, ignoring the crimes of supporting property rights, manipulating currency and forced labor.

At this moment, countless old white British men sitting in front of the TV applauded loudly, intoxicated by the heroic appearance of the diplomats, what they said was so reasonable, and it should have been a long time ago for Japan to see it.

This meeting is very special. The United States has already defaulted on the contract. If the United Kingdom is still an empire, it must start from the status of strength, but the United Kingdom does not have that strength. Similarly, other European countries are not enough. Grouping is a way, but it is also very easy. Divided by the United States, but grabbing Japan to vent their anger, Britain is still easy to unite with Europe.

The first thousand and 390 chapters of the refugee camp

Trade protectionism, ignoring support for property rights, currency manipulation, and slave labor, these crimes are quite familiar. Except for slave labor, it can be said that they can all be applied to Japan. Does Japan dare to deny it?

Japan is indeed implementing a trade protection policy, and at the same time, it also ignores products that support property rights to prevent Europe and the United States on a large scale. As for currency manipulation, Japan and Germany have long lowered their exchange rates to promote exports with the tacit approval of the United States.

As for slave labor, it may be more accurate to replace it with forced labor.These so-called crimes are not unique to Japan. The latecomer countries all have similar problems to varying degrees. However, it has been 25 years since the end of the World War. Japan is no longer full of devastation.

On TV, Wick has presented a series of evidence. Food and clothing are trivial, but automotive electrical appliances are worth mentioning. Many classic models can find twin brothers in Japanese cars.Mercedes-Benz, BMW, and Porsche are all no exceptions, and there are even Land Rover models, all of which were taken out by Wick for comparison.

Every time Wick paused in his speech, thunderous applause erupted from the venue. Of course, Alan Wilson believed that American TV would definitely focus on the imitated American brands.

"We can't go on like this. For many years we have tolerated Japan's bowing and apologizing, but this is not a problem that can be solved by bowing and apologizing. The patience of the UK and other countries is limited."

Wake sternly criticized, "Today, Japan has participated in the ten-nation summit and participated in the financial summit as a country with strong economic strength. It can no longer continue to base itself on the world with these negative impressions."

"That's right!" Alan Wilson nodded in satisfaction. In a few days, he will be able to hand over the position of executive deputy minister of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. In a few years, there will be no colonies on the British books, and diplomatic work does not need to be held in his hands all the time. My lord Xia Meng said, "What do you think of my subordinates?"

"It's not as good as you." Xia Meng said obediently, satisfying the vanity of supreme authority, "Why do you have to spend so much effort to deal with Japan?"

"Resources in the world are limited, and winners take all among countries. The development and growth of Japan will only increase the power of the United States. Japan is not qualified to raise conditions." Alan Wilson explained coldly, "No more Let's see what happens to Japan in ten years."

He didn't have any prejudice against Japan. Although the Japanese army went south in World War II did make Britain lose its adults, that was all in the past.Alan Wilson is definitely not targeting Japan. If the national strength does not allow it, he would even want to do it with the United States and the Soviet Union.

However, Japan's good days are not long. As long as Japan makes the United States feel pain in semiconductors, it is time for the United States to really start to deal with Japan seriously.

Considering that the power retained by Britain and France is far greater than in history, and the threat of the Soviet Union in Europe makes the United States dare not move Europe casually, the coming of the Plaza Accord will only be brought forward rather than delayed.

In Alan Wilson's time, many people actually didn't know how strong Japan's economy was. Words, in retrospect, the Sino-Japanese joint venture processing factory has been bankrupt for 20 years, and I don’t know how many times it has changed hands.

The Plaza Accord can be regarded as the biggest blow of the United States in the era of peace, which almost broke up the ambitions of the entire Japanese economic circle. Without this agreement, how could there be any lost 30 years?

The TV screen switched to the expression of the Japanese Minister of Foreign Affairs. Alan Wilson put his arms around Xia Meng and smiled, "Look, the Japanese are sometimes embarrassed, but don't be deceived by their superficial skills. Let me tell you, the world's most They are the countries that want your country to die forever."

"You guys are very happy about the infighting among the yellow people in the country?" Xia Meng pinched the man's arm. If it was before, she would never have dared to. Now, Xia Meng has realized the value of her own united front.

"A country with nearly ten million square kilometers and a population of [-] million, can it be promising? Huh?" Alan Wilson pinched Xia Meng's chin and shook his head slightly, "You have been abroad for too long, maybe you have lost a little energy Qi, with the US troops stationed in Japan and South Korea, it is simply impossible for you to say that there is no internal fighting."

In terms of industrial niche, if a big country can't crush Japan and South Korea, how can it pose a threat to Europe and the United States?But if Japan and South Korea are to be crushed, Japan and South Korea will of course hug the thighs of the United States. How can this logical closed loop be broken?

At this meeting, Wick, who attended on his own behalf, had to operate in secret with the Americans in order to make the United States aware of the threat from Japan.The theoretical basis is of course Alan Wilson himself. Wick is just the executor. The basis is that Japan is pulling down the profits of European and American countries. Because Japan is here, everyone's life is not good.

The Japanese economic threat theory has already appeared in the United States in this era, but Alan Wilson has a more specific vocabulary for Japan, such as the shredder of developed countries.
