"What? Do you really think of yourself as Andropov?" Alan Wilson chuckled, "William Whitelow, a good home secretary, was driven to the House of Lords. Do you think he won't take it very seriously? Some say, don’t the House of Lords even have the power to speak? If the Iron Lady doesn’t conform to public opinion, she might not be enough to go to jail.”
"I'll ask Patricia to tell her husband." Pamela Mountbatten was still the same as usual, and was finally persuaded. At this moment, there was a voice at the door, and Arnold pushed the door and entered, followed by Elizabeth Hurley Ladies, follow behind on tiptoe.
Let Elizabeth Hurley go upstairs first, and Arnold sat down to report his work progress. The truth after embellishment was that Miss Geiss was a fledgling girl and was deceived by rhetoric. She was not a lover in the usual sense.
The reason why she has maintained the status of a lover in Parkinson's life for many years is because she firmly believes that one day, although she is not sure which day it will be, but this day will definitely come, she will change her identity and become Parkinson's The wife of the righteous Lord Shun.
It was her conviction that Parkinson would eventually marry her that led her to continue their affair, at least twice for months when her confidence in Parkinson was shaken. terminated their relationship.
Parkinson has more than once persuaded her to continue their relationship with further assurances of a future marriage.
The amazing thing is, how did such a relationship start?It was hard to believe that Mr. Parkinson would have walked into the office on a day when they had first met in [-], when she had just become his secretary.
Prior to her encounter with Parkinson's, she had no experience of love or sex.Cecil Parkinson was her first love and her only man.
"I have already told Miss Geiss that this is a premeditated crime. It turns out that Minister Cecil deliberately made his crime undefinable through mind control." Arnold said his own dialogue, " There is no doubt that it is unfair to a woman who has just entered society to let this scumbag go so easily. As for tomorrow's report."
"That's it." Alan Wilson waved his hand to stop his good son from continuing, and took his wife back to the room. "I have always believed in your ability. This year I will handle some trivial matters, and I will go to work next year."
The supreme authority grabbed his wife's hand and walked quickly, returning to his room, Pamela Mountbatten raised his face, "Why don't you let your son finish talking? Hey, when I think about it, it seems that you and this criminal minister Pretty much the same for me, and I seem to be younger."
"Don't make trouble." Alan Wilson hurriedly separated the relationship, and swore, "I have been aiming to become a life partner with you. You are also my wife now. It is very different from this minister. , so he is cheating, you and I are love that has gone through various tests."
Pamela Mountbatten thought while listening, "It seems to make sense!" As soon as the words fell, the supreme authority grabbed the head of the richest woman and there was a burst of verbal swords, of course it made sense.
"The child is still there." Pamela Mountbatten shyly pushed her husband away, "Are you guilty of guilt? Hmm?"
A day later, major British newspapers and radio and television stations reported the scandal with major news. Political scandals, especially the affair, have always been hot spots for the British media to follow.Public opinion is obviously going to set off a huge wave to drown Parkinson.
The full text of the front page of the "Times" disclosed the ins and outs of this philandering, and the firepower was extremely fierce.
Mrs Thatcher's most valued and admired minister suddenly fell into a scandal. The huge amount of daily work accumulated during the general election almost made the "Iron Lady" breathless, and now this kind of thing happened again , the problem is still an old one, and the situation will not disappear just because of winning the election.
Alan Wilson came to No. [-] Downing Street very frequently this day. He would come here every now and then. It was not the documents of the Iran-Iraq War, or the war trends in Afghanistan and Pakistan, Angola in Africa, and Nicaragua in Latin America. In fact, these are all in the same field. Things don't take so many trips at all.
"Dear Prime Minister, your condition is not good today, you should rest earlier." After learning that several heavyweight members of the House of Lords expressed their opinions successively, and William Whitelow, the speaker of the House of Lords, also criticized the badness of the incident, The authority is here again.
"Are you here to see a joke?" Even if Mrs. Thatcher avoided it, she could see Alan Wilson's purpose.
"Avoidance is not an option. Our Minister of Industry seems to be having a hard time getting through this." Alan Wilson said with a compassionate look, "Premeditated crimes against women are a big problem. Such a situation in the Conservative Party Such a morally depraved criminal is really disgusting."
"Whether it is a crime or not is not decided by public opinion." Mrs. Thatcher angrily denounced the carnival of British public opinion. "The fundamental principle of the law is to never suspect a crime."
"Well said, I have long been displeased with this group of public opinion. My prime minister, you will order me to be exiled to Christmas Island in the South Pacific. How about showing the responsibility of the prime minister? Anyway, they always say that you are our British dictator. Democracy destroyers, let them know that the prime minister's will is above all else."
Mrs. Thatcher rushed directly to chase after the gloating cabinet secretary. The prime minister's office also lacked the dignity of the core of imperial power. The prime minister's eyes suddenly went dark, and Alan Wilson quickly hugged the prime minister and asked, "What's wrong?"
"My eyes have been inflamed for the past few days, and I can't see clearly." Mrs. Thatcher shook her head and stood up. "Let me go, I'm fine."
-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------
"I'd better go to the hospital for an examination." Alan Wilson resumed his businesslike appearance, and said seriously, "This is an absolutely professional suggestion. At this age, I still can't do more than one thing. It turns out that I am as strong as a cow." , doesn’t mean it’s the same now.”
"Well, good." Mrs. Thatcher approved this professional suggestion, and said, "If you can cooperate with my governance, you don't actually hate it. But you always want to see my jokes."
"This is definitely wronged. I never meant it that way." Alan Wilson changed the subject, "I made a clear distinction between this kind of thing, and the best way to do it now is to make a decisive decision."
After being reminded by this, Mrs. Thatcher went to a doctor to diagnose and treat her minor ailment. The conclusion was retinal detachment. This is not good news, especially now that the Conservative Party is still facing scandal-ridden matters, but the illness cannot be delayed , she can only arrange surgery for herself.
Originally, this small ailment, if it is a commoner, can go to the hospital for treatment.But the dignified Prime Minister, who has just won the reelection, is sick, so it's okay! ?Therefore, for the sake of her own face, Mrs. Thatcher had to quietly be admitted to the King Edward Seventh Hospital in the West End of London for surgical treatment.
Alan Wilson then came to visit the prime minister with his wife. In the ward, Mrs. Thatcher's husband was accompanying her. The arrival of the cabinet secretary surprised the prime minister and his wife.
"I still feel that things should not be leaked." Mrs. Thatcher said to the cabinet secretary in front of her.
"If the operation goes well, of course it's easy. This is the basis of all secrecy." Alan Wilson nodded and answered, and after sitting for a while, he took Pamela Mountbatten and left.
At such a critical time, Alan Wilson would have done well to guide the Industry Secretary Cecil Parkinson scandal while the Prime Minister was dealing with personal problems.
"It is indeed a good opportunity. It seems that your luck is good. Sometimes God is on your side." Pamela Mountbatten is not superstitious, but it is the fact now.
"It's better to say that opportunities are always reserved for those who are prepared. If you can see the future, you can go anywhere." Alan Wilson said in an unpredictable tone, and a professional image in front of the richest woman is still necessary, and then reminded , "The Prime Minister is of the same age as us, and being sick now is also a reminder to us to pay attention to our health when we have nothing to do."
Mrs Thatcher's operation was not high in terms of risk, but it would definitely take a period of time for vision to recover. At this time, the scandal of Minister of Industry Cecil Parkinson began to intensify.
Usually the best way at such times is to solve the problem at the source, find Miss Geiss, and negotiate a good deal to solve the problem privately.
But this time it didn't seem to be going in this direction. Cecil Parkinson couldn't find Geiss at all now, and the person involved, or the victim, had already been dealt with by Arnold in advance this time.
It is doomed that this minister with a bright future in the Conservative Party will not pass the test so easily this time.
Cecil Parkinson, as Mrs Thatcher's confidant, is a promising rising star after this general election. Looking at the other side, for example, the Home Secretary William after Mrs Thatcher won the election for the first time ·Whitlow, Secretary of State for Defense was Francis Pym, Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs was someone like Peter Alexander Carrington.
Now he is either being driven to the House of Lords to be the speaker, or he is squatting in the House of Commons as a backbench member. How can he be as chic as a cabinet minister back then.
Mrs. Thatcher flaunted a strong hand, which is actually a great advantage in a country like the Soviet Union, but in a country with an electoral system, don't expect to be able to speak well. Even within the Conservative Party, it is definitely not easy.
If you win, you will counterattack, and if you lose, you will hold grudges. There are also some heavyweight MPs from the Conservative Party who were cleared out by Mrs. Thatcher's reorganization of the cabinet.
Now that the general election has been settled, it is time to teach the bedridden Prime Minister a lesson. Mrs. Thatcher has not been hospitalized for two days. As discussed above, Cecil Parkinson's biggest backer is currently undergoing surgery.
And the operation was not successful, Mrs Thatcher had to be transferred to another hospital for a second operation.At this time, news of the Prime Minister's illness spread like wildfire and spread rapidly.
Former ministers within the Conservative Party seized this opportunity to severely criticize Cecil Parkinson and demanded that Cecil Parkinson step down immediately and not tarnish the reputation of the Conservative Party.
Cecil Parkinson, a minister who was extremely favored by the prime minister, was caught in a dilemma at this time. When Alan Wilson came to visit the prime minister, there was only the blindfolded Iron Lady in the ward. Alan Wilson suggested, "Now At this time, we can only let him step down, otherwise the matter is not something he can take on himself. Prime Minister, you probably don't want to be implicated by this minister who made mistakes, right?"
Stepping down is just the beginning. Alan Wilson must consider letting the minister at least pass the water in the court. Of course, Mrs. Thatcher does not need to know about this.
"It seems that there is really no other way but to step down." Mrs. Thatcher wore a blindfold and could not see. How did she know that the supreme authority was about to kill her favorite supporters, and she couldn't find anyone to put out the fire.
Still bearing the anger of women all over the UK, the truth about a minister using his power to deceive young girls' feelings has been recognized by the public, and his resignation is almost inevitable.
"The most important thing for the prime minister now is to recover from his illness. I think at this time, citizens will not be aggressive when they know the prime minister's illness." Alan Wilson comforted the prime minister while holding his palm.
"Okay, I'll trouble you, uh!" Mrs. Thatcher, whose sight was blocked, was suddenly unable to make a sound, but she immediately understood what was going on, and she broke free and dressed roughly, "Are you crazy?"
"I'm sorry, I can't help but see the fragile side of the Iron Lady." Alan Wilson pretended to be low, but if Mrs. Thatcher could see his expression, she would know that he was laughing now.
Mrs. Thatcher was obviously unprepared for this blow, and her chest heaved violently, obviously wanting to get angry, but in the end she didn't say anything. If she didn't calm down, Cecil Parkinson's incident would be considered a scandal ?How could the prime minister and cabinet secretary be more explosive?
"Why don't you leave?" Although Mrs. Thatcher's vision was blocked, she could still tell that the other party hadn't left and was still staying in the ward.
"Uh, with regard to the negotiations on Pershing missiles and nuclear disarmament, shall we still maintain our previous attitude?" Alan Wilson obviously didn't want to leave yet, and was preparing to report to the Prime Minister.
After a while, I left the ward in high spirits, and at the same time took up the duties of the spokesperson, answering reporters' questions about Mrs Thatcher's current hospitalization and the Cecil Parkinson scandal.
First of all, the Prime Minister was very angry, because the Prime Minister is also a female politician, and she is extremely disgusted with this kind of scandal. When asked about the specific attitude, Alan Wilson replied very frankly, "I am not a member of the cabinet, but I suggest that the Minister of Industry Resign immediately."
Cecil Parkinson will definitely report to Mrs. Thatcher when he resigns, but this has nothing to do with the overall situation. Once Cecil Parkinson resigns and is no longer a minister, an ordinary MP Alan Wilson can handle him at will. It can be said that once Cecil Parkinson cannot avoid the judiciary's involvement without the support of the cabinet.
Afterwards, regardless of the reporters' questions, he went straight back to Whitehall to deal with the German issue, and wentssip about the minister's scandal with his colleagues, apparently they were also interested.
"Germany's attitude is irrelevant, so what if Kohl doesn't like Pershing missiles deployed in Germany? What can he change? To put it bluntly, he is the chancellor of Germany, but in fact we need to take the voice of the Germans seriously. Is it?"
Alan Wilson said in the tone of the chief executive of Malaya, "I have a good way to make Britain, the United States and France pay attention to Germany. Germany will expand its army by 150 million and triple the current German Wehrmacht. Look at our attitude towards Germany. Definitely different."
This is also the best way for Germany to solve problems in future generations. If the German military strength is only 30 to 150, then tens of thousands of U.S. troops stationed in Germany can handle Germany.There are only 20 German troops, and the U.S. troops stationed in Germany are overlords. If there are more than 100 million German troops, the U.S. troops stationed in Germany are hostages.
"Indeed, Germany has no ability to resist. We might as well talk about when the Minister of Industry will resign. I bet within 24 hours." Brest said with a smile, "It seems that the Prime Minister is still very optimistic about this Minister, I wonder if there is some unknown relationship."
"It's better not to spread such remarks. Our prime minister is so mean." Alan Wilson reached out to stop the discussion, even if it was a joke, it should be enough.
In the end, Cecil Parkinson still couldn't bear the pressure and resigned to Mrs. Thatcher. At this time, Mrs. Thatcher had just taken off her blindfold and accepted the other party's resignation.At the time of the election, Cecil Parkinson wanted to solve this problem through divorce, but was opposed by Mrs. Thatcher. Doesn't this mean that the mistress is in power?
But in the end, Mrs. Thatcher did not keep her position as a loyal supporter. After two days and nights of hospitalization, Mrs. Thatcher finally walked out with vigor.When she walked towards the prime minister's car, she was immediately surrounded by a group of journalists and photographers, "Can you see something? How long will it take you to return to the office."
"I can see through all your faults." Mrs. Thatcher seemed very impatient when she asked a question after answering this question.The original fake humor has now turned sharp. She was obviously troubled by the scandal, but she still exposed her true nature at a critical moment. Failure to keep her supporters was a failure in her opinion.
Margaret Thatcher, who had just recovered from her illness, did not know that this was not a matter of not keeping her supporters at all, and her resignation was not the end.
-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------
In order to relax and recuperate from illness, Mrs. Thatcher decided to recuperate for a period of time and went to Switzerland on public holidays for vacation.
Of course, Alan Wilson is very much in favor of it, and it just so happens that he has to deal with some adjustments to the work in Newfoundland. The royal territory of Newfoundland is simply a modern pirate, and Icelanders feel deeply about this.
But I have to admit that the luck of modern pirates is good. Newfoundland, which resolutely defends fishery resources, looked at the vast fishing grounds in the 80s, and felt a sense of pride. What kind of shit is Canada, can it compare with Newfoundland's living conditions?
The construction of national telecommunications has been slow in the United Kingdom, but it has been completed first in Newfoundland. For this reason, the United Kingdom has also laid a submarine optical cable.
This is far from all. Alan Wilson has always known that there is oil in the waters near Newfoundland. When he was the chief executive, he hoped to reverse the local economic situation, but he never found it.In the end, labor was mobilized from Malaya to plug the financial hole.
Up to now, Newfoundland, which is already very rich, has finally detected the news of oil. It is also an offshore financial center, a tax haven, and holds one of the world's four largest fishing grounds. Now it has discovered oil reserves. Considering Newfoundland's small population made Alan Wilson jealous.
"Do you think Newfoundland would like to merge with Canada now?" Holding the prospecting documents, Alan Wilson handed them over to his wife, although there was no need to do anything extra.
Newfoundland has its own parliament, and it is entirely possible to ask Pamela Mountbatten to mine directly, but it is more secure to perform procedural justice.
"The US per capita is [-], Canada is [-], and Newfoundland is [-]. I would not think of merging." Pamela Mountbatten also lamented the luck of Newfoundland residents.
"Resource areas can't be counted in this way. Two years ago, Saudi Arabia's per capita income was [-]. Last year it dropped to [-]. This situation will indeed happen if it occupies a lot of resources, not to mention that Newfoundland is an offshore financial center. There is also a world Well-known fishing grounds." Alan Wilson said that the data does not tell everything.
Even decades later, Saudi Arabia will have a per capita level of over 80. It is not a big dog. Why does it leave the impression of a big dog?That's because at this moment, Saudi Arabia is indeed a very rich country. The oil crisis allowed Saudi Arabia to have a per capita income of nearly [-] in the [-]s.
The income of the resource country is unstable, but it doesn't matter. Newfoundland itself has such a small population that it can completely live on its own. The residents have lost the will to struggle early, which is really pitiful.
"Let the daughter go. The gaming industry is now run by the daughter." Pamela Mountbatten thought for a while and decided to let her daughter go. As she got older, her career ambitions also faded.
"Bring Carol, and the Prime Minister's daughter will follow, which can show London's importance." Alan Wilson suggested this, and the richest woman hesitated and nodded in agreement.
The Speaker of the House of Lords, William Whitelow, insisted that Cecil Parkinson leave the House of Commons, indicating that the scandal was far from over. William Whitelow's call was also supported by a group of Conservative MPs. As for the Labor Party It is even more necessary to support.
After the general election, the leadership of the Labor Party was renewed: Michael Foot stepped down and a young politician, Neil Kinnock, was installed as party leader.In this way, the Conservative Party is facing a young and promising opponent who is very attractive to voters.
Kinnock is a Welsh man who is good at oratory, especially eloquent, and has great lethality.With the passage of time and the tempering of actual combat, he gradually came to the fore in parliamentary debates, and his debate skills have reached a superb and perfect climate.
With the abdication of the older generation such as Foote and Healy, the leadership of the Labor Party has been transferred to the hands of the new generation.
Seeing the internal disputes in the Conservative Party, the Labor Party will naturally not stand by and focus its firepower on Cecil Parkinson, hoping that this supporter of Mrs. Thatcher will completely disappear from the political circle.
"My God, but my friend, having said that, now that I've come to my senses, you're so lucky." When talking about the Cecil Parkinson scandal in front of Profumo, Alan Wilson said Profumo Fu Mo can be considered to have picked it up, if the affair with the underage is exposed, he will be the one facing this kind of slobber now.
And it's not just the issue of minors, but also the turmoil with the Soviet Union, so Alan Wilson should of course stand upright in front of Profumo.
"The Conservative Party is determined not to keep this kind of scum." Profumo expressed his attitude, and must drive this black sheep out of the political circle.
"That's a good point." Alan Wilson nodded in approval, "The Minister of Industry needs a trustworthy person. I don't know if there is a candidate for the Minister. I recommend a reliable person."
"How about John Major, I have a good relationship with him." Profumo proposed the candidate in his mind. In fact, John Major entered the political arena quite late, even before Cecil Parkinson after.
"He? That's right, he's a good candidate." Alan Wilson heard that this was not the rebel of Mrs. Thatcher's late administration, but the rebellion was not obvious, so he immediately agreed to meet him if he had time.
The Cecil Parkinson scandal has intensified after Mrs Thatcher returned from her leave of absence and is already considered the new height of scandal in recent years.
Although on some issues, Alan Wilson respects Congressman Cecil Parkinson, but now it is time to make a decisive decision, "He has no other choice but to leave politics now."
"Is it necessary to do this? Why can't I stop it?" Mrs. Thatcher didn't want to drive out her loyal supporters, thinking that internal and external enemies were too unkind.
"If you win, you will counterattack, and if you lose, you will hold grudges. My Prime Minister, you have never been polite to the Labor Party, and they will naturally not be polite to you." Alan Wilson frowned, this woman is too double-standard, look at you How to treat your opponent, of course how others treat you, always talk about these things, not open-minded at all.
The connoted Mrs. Thatcher squinted at Alan Wilson, and suddenly said, "I'm still feeling a little uncomfortable recently."
"The Prime Minister shouldn't be too old, right?" Alan Wilson glanced suspiciously at Mrs. Thatcher's abdomen. Could it be that there are mountains as tall as mountains, and Greta Garbo is not the only one with extraordinary talents?The Prime Minister also has the physique of an athlete?
Mrs. Thatcher, who winked at the blind man, mocked the cabinet secretary, "Maybe the pornographic news didn't find a really suitable candidate."
"If you look for it, you will definitely find two. One person cannot constitute a scandal, just like a slap in the face cannot slap."
Alan Wilson was not frightened, but he had no intention of arguing with the Prime Minister. He changed his tone and said, "You still have to take a good rest. If you can't do it, ignore the accusations of the Labor Party. You are a woman, what else can they do?"
A woman's tone was irritated, Mrs. Thatcher, the Prime Minister had to prove that he was no worse than anyone else, and decided to talk to Cecil Parkinson to persuade him to resign and temporarily avoid the limelight.
Facing the situation of mass attacks, the Prime Minister cannot always shield the erring MPs, not to mention that Mrs. Thatcher is also a woman. A week later, Cecil Parkinson, who left the Minister of Industry, has understood that it is irreversible. He can only announce his resignation and leave politics.
This is not a problem that can be solved by resignation, but it is too obvious to pursue it immediately. Alan Wilson is discussing the development of British industry with John Major, the new Minister of Industry.
On this issue, Alan Wilson said that the former Minister of Industry believed that the UK should focus on the financial sector, but if John Major doesn't mind, he can continue to plan along this route.
This made John Major very uncomfortable. The former Minister of Industry was so scandal-ridden that he couldn't even be a member of parliament. So he continued to follow the route of a scandal-ridden person after taking office?
"There is also a Whitehall plan about the semiconductor industry and the development of electronic communications. Would you like the minister to take a look?" Seeing that the other party was not interested in his predecessor, Alan Wilson immediately changed his plan.
Obviously, the new minister cannot follow the wrong route, of course it is the wrong route, otherwise why has the other party left the political circle?
Just when the secretary-general of the cabinet kicked the stumbling block away, a coup broke out in Grenada, an island country in the Caribbean and a member of the Commonwealth of Nations. The head of the government, Morris Bishop, was assassinated. new regime.
After the coup, the leaders of the neighboring countries Barbados and Dominica requested Britain, the United States and other countries to send troops to Grenada to help stabilize the local situation, so as to avoid a domino effect and affect the stability of their own countries.
"Violation of international law?" Alan Wilson seemed to have heard a joke, and said eccentrically, "In the eyes of many countries, the Falklands War is a model of violation of international law. However, if you don't fight, you may not be the prime minister now."
"But Grenada has no interests. It is such a small country, and the country's finances are not good." Mrs. Thatcher felt that the secretary-general of the cabinet was connoting herself again, and asked the secretary-general of the cabinet to pay attention to financial issues with a straight face.
"That's not impossible. I suggest legalizing the lottery. In fact, Newfoundland has been operating the Commonwealth's welfare lottery for decades." Alan Wilson said, "But the UK has banned it after all, so It only exists in the word of mouth among the citizens, and if modern technology is used to promote it, such as advertising on TV, I believe it will not be difficult to promote it. Preliminary estimates can bring more than one billion pounds in revenue a year."
