British Civil Servant
Vol 2 Chapter 1082: Honor and Discipline
"It turns out that Kennedy and I still have something in common." Jacqueline's refutation about her brother-in-law and sister-in-law quickly spread to the United Kingdom in this era of globalization. Alan Wilson couldn't help but sigh, both of them are talented people. They should be good friends, but they have to go their separate ways.
Of course, there is only one thing in common. He believes that with his own caution, he should not run into a psychopath.
Alan Wilson still believes that Kennedy's problem will eventually be resolved by the Americans themselves. If the curtain call can be made in that way, it is not as simple as one or two people or one or two forces that offend, but public indignation can only be executed in public. .
In the United States, a country under the rule of law with many parties and many interest groups, who has such a great right to attack the Kennedy brothers? In the president, the presidential candidate assassinated twice in a row and could hide the truth from the public. The answer is only the U.S. government, which is the The U.S. government is composed of many senior politicians and interest groups.
No one person, or a collective of arms dealers, has such a great ability to take down a president and a presidential candidate.
Don't worry, just wait with peace of mind. Alan Wilson has to fill in useless content for the report of the leak investigation. Even if he takes time to eat melons, he can't always care about things outside the UK.
Now that the crisis PR about Aiden is over, voters have chosen to forgive the Prime Minister's drug dependence.
Of course, Aiden himself has also publicly stated that he will get rid of drug dependence to prevent drug dependence from affecting his ability to judge government affairs.
This is of course false. From Norman Brooke, Alan Wilson learned that Aiden is now suspicious of the Conservative Party, and it is only because the Labour Party is eyeing it that he has not made a big deal.
He will also be questioned in the House of Commons, where the current shadow foreign secretary is Harold Wilson. Labour has been very concerned about whether Britain's position on the Iranian oil crisis is shaken.
Busy with being questioned and launching leak investigations, that's what Alan Wilson has been up against recently, can't you check all of them? But still pretend to do your best.
"I don't know the Prime Minister's health. In fact, I haven't seen the Prime Minister a few times." Mrs Thatcher, a backbencher, looked at the old acquaintance in front of her and pretended to calmly cooperate with the other party's inquiry.
"Margaret..." Ellen Wilson was interrupted by Mrs Thatcher as soon as she spoke. "It's better to be called Mrs Thatcher, Sir Ellen. Work is work, and it's better to be more formal."
"Okay, Mrs Thatcher." Alan Wilson showed a bitter smile, as if saddened by the relationship between the two, "I don't have any special questions, my respected MP. But please answer today's inquiry. Keep it secret, don't leak it, and the same with your husband."
Alan Wilson, who finally communicated with Mrs Thatcher again, tried his best to defuse the awkward atmosphere between the two. If possible, he hoped that the two could live in peace in the future.
The dialogue is dull, and compared to many years ago, it seems that the past cannot be recalled, which is full of emotion.
At the end of the final inquiry, Alan Wilson extended his hand as a farewell, and Mrs Thatcher hesitated, and held it together with the outstretched hand. Then he watched the man's back disappear from sight, and only looked back after a long time.
At No. 10 Downing Street, the Prime Minister's official residence, Norman Brook is also discussing with Prime Minister Eden about some job adjustments. For foreign affairs, Norman Brook highly praised, "My colleagues all believe that the current diplomatic team is post-war. At the most powerful time, in addition to your personal concern, the Prime Minister, the Foreign Secretary Macmillan also contributed, and Allen said that the Foreign Secretary's work attitude was admirable, and he had nothing to help."
"Can't you say that?" Aiden frowned, not happy because he was praised by the cabinet secretary.
"How could it be? If it wasn't for the Foreign Secretary's visit to New Delhi, how could we get India to listen to the UK? You know that now Nehru is single-minded about making India a great power, which is actually a tough guy to deal with. He's not just prime minister He is also the foreign minister and controls the whole of India.”
Norman Brooke said with admiration, "Including India in the Six-Party Talks is definitely a proud work. This is recognized by everyone."
"Actually, I think Macmillan can be made to pay attention to more things. Now the country still has many things to care about." Aiden said his thoughts word by word, "Norman, a country cannot only have diplomacy. Of course, It's just a half-baked idea of mine, if the Foreign Office is so well-loved for Macmillan?"
"The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Whitehall love every government!" Norman Brooke responded solemnly, and then the conversation changed, "Our duty is to ensure the stable operation of the government, if Macmillan is suddenly left? Will it cause the government The decision was misunderstood? I think there is a way to do it.”
"How?" Aiden asked immediately, waiting for Norman Brooke's answer.
"There are not many options for changing departments. After all, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is an important department, I think? In exchange, is it possible to let Macmillan have a part-time job first, and I think we can arrange him to be the president of Oxford University first, so as to dispel doubts. When the time comes to reorganize the cabinet, then it will be logical to move it. Most ministers will not object."
Of course, this decision will have to be approved by the Oxford University Council, the highest authority. But for Norman Brook, this matter is not difficult.
How else could Norman Brooke maintain a rapport with every head of government? Once such a thing happens, Norman Brooke never shy away, but stands in the prime minister's perspective and does his best to solve the problem for the prime minister.
When the cabinet secretary was busy solving problems for the Prime Minister, Alan Wilson finally completed the leak investigation report, with the strongest answer, it seemed to be a lengthy written proof of his own: "Conclusive Evidence - Leak Report Details ".
The material is mostly dry narrative, but there are also occasional expressions of indignation at the slanderous innuendo received, which is simply the indignation of the House of Commons. The statement about the internal investigation is...
Crafting a fiction until it is determined that it should be the truth, and then spreading it as a fact?
The whole process is, cannot and will not allow objections. Gossip does harm the Prime Minister without prejudice, but when asked whether it is true, the answer is no.
If these facts were told by disinterested people, it would help to improve the credibility of the Prime Minister. On the contrary, the subjective assumptions made out of thin air have no opinion of one's own; and the media are full of echoes. Sublime inquiries are completely useless.
"I'm going to deal with this useless **** in my life?" Don't give it to the Prime Minister. Alan Wilson spent a lot of spittle on reading it himself. He seemed to have said everything and said nothing.
Now if this report is lost, he will not be sure to do it again. He doesn't know how many brain cells he will have to damage before he can prove this kind of nonsense again. The only useful thing in the report is the self-statement of each person under investigation. , of course, among these people, not with Macmillan.
Quite simply, Alan Wilson was not ordered to investigate Macmillan, either expressly or implicitly.
After a brief hesitation, Alan Wilson decided to make a copy of the report, which may be the pinnacle of his bureaucratic career, and he must keep a copy, maybe he can use it when he writes his memoirs in the future.
He then sent the leak investigation report to Whitehall, through the hands of Norman Brooke, to Prime Minister Aiden.
The report was seen by Prime Minister Eden and then put aside, saying nothing and saying nothing.
No matter from any point of view, as one of the two universities in the UK, the Chancellor of Oxford University is a huge honor. Generally, it is rarely awarded to the incumbent ministers, and it is the honorary part-time job of the Prime Minister or the outgoing Prime Minister.
Naturally, such a great honor cannot be conveyed by ordinary people. The current cabinet secretary, Norman Brooke, came forward with a warm attitude and personally expressed the Prime Minister's praise for Macmillan's work, "Harold, a great honor, I all envious."
"Norman, why did the Prime Minister grant me the position of Chancellor of Oxford University." Macmillan was puzzled, even a little confused, why did it suddenly fall on him?
"Maybe it's to commend the minister's outstanding contribution in the field of diplomacy~www.wuxiaspot.com~ After the minister has been busy for more than a year, we...the prime minister has all looked at it." Norman Brooke snorted, "Nothing. There is no doubt that the honor of the Chancellor of Oxford University is absolutely extraordinary, and being able to serve at this time is the same treatment as many prime ministers."
Of course, Norman Brooke could not say that this is an appropriate punishment for Macmillan, disobedience to authority, disrespectful words and deeds, and behavior that does not conform to ministers. Although this is indeed punishment, it is also an honor.
Punishment and honor are not contradictory at some point, they are only reflected in different stages of the same event.
As for Macmillan's unease, Norman Brooke persuaded Macmillan to give up the idea.
In the end, Macmillan naturally accepted this honor. At some point in the future, this may also become one of Macmillan's contemptible incriminating evidence, but whether it is incriminating in the end depends on what Prime Minister Aiden thinks at that time.
In this way, Macmillan took the position of Chancellor of Oxford University at the same time as Foreign Secretary.
At the same time, Aiden was thinking about when the time for a cabinet reshuffle would come to make an adjustment to the ministers.
