British Civil Servant

Vol 2 Chapter 1596: Interviews and Elections

"According to the TV series, I should call the Secretary-General of the Cabinet Sir." This time the host Alexander started the interview in a relaxed tone, "Thank you Sir for coming to the BBC during his busy schedule. I don't know how it treats our work. evaluate."

"Very good, Alexander, David Attenborough and I are good friends, and we are both frequent visitors to the Paleontological Association. You know, I have also made achievements in this area, and I have also participated in the publication of related books in Commonwealth countries, If it weren't for the many things going on in Whitehall, I think I might have to go all over the world from time to time. David and I have a lot to talk about when it comes to nature documentaries."

Allen Weir talks high and endlessly in praise of David Attenborough, part one of the "Life Trilogy" curated, written and hosted live by David Attenborough The Evolution of Life airs on the BBC.

This is an epoch-making work in the history of natural history documentaries, through the shooting of typical creatures in various geological periods around the world.

Covering the entire history of the evolution of life on Earth, it has made breakthrough contributions in terms of special shooting techniques in different field environments, program production, and the depth and breadth of investigations into the living world.

This is not to evade nonsense. It is easy for the cabinet secretary to fool a noob in this regard. First of all, he is really a member of the British Paleontological Association, and he really knows David Attenborough. The other party shoots a documentary The fee is sponsored by the Mountbatten Group.

His daughter Pamela was very helpful, and then digging down to Mrs Thatcher's daughter Carol.

Although the secretary-general of the cabinet is very professional, this is not what the people who eat melons care about. Alexander even felt that the other party's appearance of having experienced many battles meant that he, the secretary-general of the cabinet, knew all about the internal affairs of the BBC. There are also friends with higher status, so as to warn him not to ask random questions.

The stunned host waited until Alan Wilson finished talking about the nature documentary before continuing to ask, "I was shocked by Jazz's profound knowledge."

"What's so shocking, it's nothing compared to my invention of the mouse."

Alan Wilson responded with a smile, "However, there will be even bigger surprises in a few years. By then, you will know what a revolution in communication is. In terms of appearance patents in mobile phones, it may even let me An extra income. The current project that Whitehall is fully promoting is the national coverage of the cellular mobile phone network. We are already slower than Japan in this regard, which is unacceptable."

"Mobile telephony has been considered by Whitehall as a new growth point, as some low-end jobs disappear, providing more skilled employment to solve the unemployment problem."

"Oh, that's really good news." Alexander said very happily, "I believe that the citizens listening to the radio at this time will definitely be interested in the new industry that Sir is talking about."

"This will be a communications revolution, reducing the entire planet to the concept of a global village." A well-known ignorant scholar, cabinet secretary-general Alan Wilson, proposed a new concept at this time to express his optimism for the communications industry , while the host on the opposite side was full of confusion.

Originally, I wanted to interview the Secretary-General of the Cabinet before the election, and increase the ratings by taking advantage of the third season of the minister's hit, but it seemed a bit off topic.

The development of electronic communication is not what ordinary people care about. Alexander continued to guide the core of the discussion, "In the TV series, Sir, as the Secretary-General of the Cabinet, is known as the most powerful person in Britain. But how does Sir view this issue. Your existence Is it so unshakable, it seems that Jazz has been the secretary-general of the cabinet for many years and has led the power center of Whitehall for many years."

"The most powerful person in Britain? If I were really so powerful, the nationalization of coal mines would not have happened. I was firmly opposed to the nationalization of coal at that time, because coal is not a scarce commodity, and its added value is also very low. Nationalization The disadvantages outweigh the advantages, especially in the long run."

Alan Wilson shook his head seriously, "As for my being elected as the cabinet secretary, there seems to be a reason that my wife is a famous rich man, so I will not embezzle myself."

Alexander had a gossiping face, he was sure that this was a topic that the audience cared about, and he hoped that the other party would say more with an instigated expression.

Alan Wilson did not live up to this wish, and said in a complaining tone, "Of course I am not happy for this reason. In fact, Ali Khan, the richest man in the world and the Maharaja of Hyderabad at that time, were on good terms between me and me 40 years ago." My friend also helped to handle a deposit of seven million pounds. In fact, there are such friends, some not too big numbers, it is really difficult to tempt me."

The seven million pounds in 1945 can be turned into tens of millions now. Alan Wilson used this to show his integrity, and at the same time denied that he was the most powerful person in Britain. He opposed the nationalization of coal mines , and eventually the coal mines were nationalized.

"Whitehall is only the seat of a department that implements cabinet policies. In fact, if the prime minister wants to abolish the size of the civil service, I have no choice."

It's not completely impossible. For example, the two foundations in Whitehall, the cabinet cannot intervene, because this is not only British money, but also funds from other places. The government has no right to use it without the knowledge of other regions. funds inside.

But Alan Wilson can, he used to be the chief executive of Newfoundland and Malaya, and the speaker of Rhodesia is still his relative.

When Alexander asked what he thought of the series of The Minister, Alan Wilson quite let himself go, "If I really have such power as in the show, I guess I should find some mistresses anyway, let Hepburn, Vivien Leigh, Taylor, Monroe, Heidi Rama, and Ingrid Bergman are the best stars to play, but the Soviet spies are so powerful, why don’t they attack me. Let me find my own united front value, otherwise I will die Jealous of Whitehall in the TV series."

The supreme authority expressed half-truths and half-false accusations against fate. Most citizens who watched the interview would smile heartily, but a few people did not think so. For example, Ms. Hepburn and Ms. Monroe who were also watching, Not only did she not laugh, but she also scolded men of the same status as her husband as shameless.

"Jazz is really humorous, but I have to say it from a man's point of view, it's too frank." Alexander said with a look of admiration, "I don't know what Jazz thinks about this election. Whitehall is leaning towards the Labor Party. The idea is still the idea of ​​the Conservative Party.”

"Whitehall civil servants must uphold the basic principle of neutrality, and no matter which party it is, it cannot destroy this principle. If the ruling party is determined to destroy this principle? I don't want to use the word enemy to describe it, but I can't find any other To be honest, I don’t even object to some of the cabinet’s monitoring measures against Whitehall, but every monitoring measure must have no loopholes, and only Her Majesty the Queen herself can be exempted from such monitoring. Apart from this, the UK cannot have any exception."

At this time, Alan Wilson was the one described in the series, the person who controlled the country, there was a silence in the studio, but the silence ended immediately, Alan Wilson added, "Just kidding, don't be so nervous, Some congressmen are a little bit stupid, but our system allows such people to exist."

That's all for the topic of the general election. Alan Wilson just connoted the elected members, not to mention criticizing, and then went on to work on his own affairs.

Most of the comments in the London media also tend to believe that if the general election is early, the Conservative Party will get a majority of votes. Of course, the development history of the post-war British political situation has repeatedly shown that voters cannot be "one-sided".

But it is important to observe from the political platforms of each party that the Conservative Party has a slight advantage with its clear political platform.

Mrs. Thatcher advocated as much as possible to ensure that financiers and entrepreneurs have a relatively good investment environment, so as to prosper the domestic economy and enhance the competitiveness of British enterprises in the international market.

Compared with the clear-cut policies of the Conservative Party, the Labor Party is much less. In terms of domestic policy, Labor has only one rallying cry: jobs. The Labor Party did experience economic stagnation during Callaghan's administration, and was also affected by the oil crisis caused by Iran.

The biggest problem for the Labor Party is not the economic problem. After all, during the post-war Labor Party period, Alan Wilson led Whitehall to output with all his strength, and the results were quite impressive. Except for the late 1970s, most of the time when the Labor Party was in power, the economy was also Go ahead.

The problem is that the Social Democratic Party, a party split from the Labor Party, diverted the supporters of the Labor Party. The Social Democratic Party and the Liberal Party also formed an alliance. As for the alliance between the Social Democratic Party and the Liberal Party, voters were even more confused.

They criticize Margaret Thatcher's "monarism" policy and the Labor Party's policy, but their own policy is very unclear~www.wuxiaspot.com~ The coalition can only play a role in spreading votes in the general election. Possibly competing with two traditional parties.

The nationalist enthusiasm aroused by the victory of the Falkland Islands War has not diminished, and the "heroic image" of Margaret Thatcher still exists. This is an important political capital for the Conservative Party.

When the two parties were fully preparing for the general election, Alan Wilson fined the Japanese company Nissan 10 million pounds. This company once privately stated that if the Labor Party wins the general election, it will suspend its investment plan in the UK. interference in British elections.

Then he went to No. 10 Downing Street with the punishment document, and conveyed another matter, "Of course we should support the deployment of Pershing missiles in Europe, but France will not allow its own country to deploy such weapons, and of course the UK cannot, and the UK is not without it. Nuclear weapons, deployed in countries like Germany and Italy."

"Oh, good." Mrs. Thatcher hurriedly stood up and said, "I'm going to Buckingham Palace."

"Then I wish the Prime Minister all the best." Alan Wilson was well aware of Mrs. Thatcher's purpose. A few hours later, Queen Elizabeth officially announced the dissolution of Parliament.
