Reborn as a police officer in South Africa

The Conservative cabinet collectively resigned, the Labor Party and the Liberal Party coalition came to power, the positions of the offensive and defensive parties were reversed, and Ramsay Macdonald finally felt the pain of Stanley Baldwin.

Amend the Emergency Banking Act?

no!

why not?

No matter why, it won’t work!

You are being unreasonable

It was you who were unreasonable in the first place!

For the same reason, the pound cannot be devalued, tax rates cannot be increased, social welfare must be increased, and military spending cannot be reduced. As for how the coalition government can do this

who cares!

Anyway, the Conservative MPs in the House of Commons don't care. When the Conservative Party was in power, the Labor Party and the Liberal Party were at fault, and now the Conservative Party is intensifying their efforts.

In this case, Ramsay MacDonald would be damned if he could make a difference.

It cannot be said that it has not made any achievements at all. The coalition government took into account the national conditions of the United Kingdom and suggested that the overseas dominions and colonies should assume more obligations. This point has achieved consensus in the House of Commons.

The problem is that reaching consensus is one thing, but how to do it is another.

The coalition government hopes that the overseas dominions and colonies can make greater contributions, and the overseas colonies and dominions also hope that the mainland can provide more help.

The key to solving the problem lies in Southern Africa. As long as the federal government of Southern Africa agrees, then this matter may succeed.

"So, the key to the problem now is Southern Africa. What should we do to force Southern Africa to agree?" Ramsay McDonald racked his brains and couldn't figure out how to force it.

force?

This word is not appropriate to use here, and the request is more or less the same.

Placed in front of Ramsay Macdonald was a plan formulated overnight by the new Chancellor of the Exchequer, Philip Snowden.

The plan mainly focuses on southern Africa, including requiring southern Africa to provide more gold to help stabilize the pound's exchange rate.

Southern Africa is also required to provide more food and industrial products at cheaper prices to help the locals tide over the difficulties.

In addition, Philip Snowden also hopes that southern African companies can achieve more cooperation with British companies and transfer technology to British companies, so that British products will be more competitive.

Finally, there is defence. The Ministry of Finance hopes that Southern Africa can bear part of the naval military expenditures so that the coalition government can reduce expenditures.

What do you say about this plan?

If Rock saw it, he would probably slap the plan in Philip Snowden's face.

"Southern Africa is an overseas autonomous territory of the British Empire, and this is their obligation." Philip Snowden reiterated the old story. As long as Southern Africa agrees to this plan, the United Kingdom can break out of its cocoon and be reborn.

"Never mention the word 'obligation'. In the previous cabinet, Minister Neville and Minister Winston had contacted the Southern African federal government many times, and the Marquis of Nyasaland had a tough attitude." Foreign Secretary Arthur Hind

Sen frowned. He had no personal relationship with Rock and was not even qualified to contact him.

It is not about taking the initiative to contact the Federal Government of Southern Africa. Arthur Henderson still has the qualifications to contact the Federal Government of Southern Africa as Foreign Secretary. This refers to contacting Roque himself.

"The Marquis of Nyasaland is a nobleman conferred by His Majesty. If possible, we can ask Your Majesty for help." Philip Snowden was very imaginative.

"Oh, your Majesty, don't you want to lose face?" Arthur Henderson sneered, begging to use the word well.

"Gentlemen, I think we cannot pin our hopes on southern Africa. We should solve the problem from ourselves." Margaret Bondfield, the only female minister, lacks experience and starts from herself?

The Commonwealth is the greatest support of the British Empire!

"How do you start from yourself?" Ramsay Macdonald was ill and rushed to the doctor.

"Like lobbying Congress," Margaret Bondfield said matter-of-factly.

Snowden and Henderson were greatly disappointed. Although the Conservative Party lost its majority status, the 260 seats were not much less than the 288 seats. If you think about how the Labor Party attacked the Conservative cabinet before, you will know that Margaret Bond

How naive is Defield's proposal.

"Talk about it in detail, I think this is a good proposal." Ramsay Macdonald had a serious deviation in his own understanding. He probably thought that the Conservative Party would ignore past grievances and take the overall situation into consideration.

Regardless of past grievances

Take the overall situation into consideration

When these two words are translated and typed, they are both suspected of having too many characters.

"We should act separately and find congressmen with whom we have good relationships to defeat them one by one. If we can get the support of some conservative congressmen, then we can pass it." Margaret said seriously. This is indeed the truth. Can we do it?

Easy to say.

"That's it. It's been decided that we will split up." Ramsay MacDonald did not think this was an impossible task.

At the end of the meeting, Snowden and Henderson left the Prime Minister's Office together.

When the two shook hands and said goodbye at the door, Henderson suddenly asked: "Who are you going to find?"

Snowden's expression was dull. The Labor Party and the Conservative Party had already been at odds with each other, so who could they go to now?

Not to mention how entangled the cabinet members of the coalition government are, it is already winter in Pretoria in July. According to the decision of the Olympic Committee, the 1928 Olympic Games will be held in Pretoria, southern Africa, on July 15.

On the one-year countdown to the Olympic Games, the Southern African Olympic Organizing Committee was officially established.

This time, the Olympic Organizing Committee finally had one more member. Winston, as the Governor of Southern Africa, personally served as the Director of the Olympic Organizing Committee. The deputy director was one of the three elders of Southern Africa. Roque was very smart and did not join the Olympic Organizing Committee. Instead, he

Transvaal Governor Hawley and Pretoria Mayor Smith were thrown into the Olympic Organizing Committee.

Yes, this Holly is the same Holly who married Connie, a Boer.

Connie is an absolutely prosperous woman. After marrying Connie, Holly rose to prominence. He first managed the Rock Gold Mine, and then naturally became a Johannesburg city councilor. He successively served as the chairman of the Johannesburg Mining Alliance and the general manager of Nyasaland Company. In this

In the process, he was successfully elected as a member of Congress. Last year, when southern Africa was redrawn into administrative regions, Hawley was elected governor of the Transvaal.

"Lord, the economic crisis broke out this year, and the Transvaal and Pretoria were also seriously affected. Therefore, it is unlikely that we can reproduce the economic miracle of the Commonwealth Games in next year's Olympics." Holly has no confidence. After all, the Commonwealth Games is

Roque single-handedly managed it, and with Roque's influence in southern Africa, various sponsors came one after another, which led to the subsequent economic miracle.

Roque has made it clear that he will not participate in the Olympics, and he doesn't know how much enthusiasm from sponsors will be left. Maybe it will be a thankless effort.

"Haha, don't worry, I don't have high demands on you, as long as you don't lose money." Rock took the initiative to pour coffee for Holly and Smith.

Holly and Smith got up immediately.

Roque motioned to the two of them to relax and not make things too awkward. They were both governors and mayors, so they were somewhat confident.

Rock also really trusts Holly and Smith. After all, they are both Chinese. Smith's Chinese name is Shi Qi.

"There should be no loss of money. Even if the organizing committee loses money, it can make it back in other ways, and maybe it can also stimulate a wave of tourism revenue." Shi Qi was full of longing, and the grand occasion of the Commonwealth Games was still vivid in his mind.

The Commonwealth Games not only did not lose money, but actually made a lot of money. Pretoria gained a large number of sports facilities, the fiscal revenue of the state and municipal governments increased significantly, and the citizens gained a grand multi-sport event. The Federal Government of Southern Africa

What you gain is international prestige.

It should be said that the influence of the Olympic Games on a global scale is still greater than that of the Commonwealth Games. Only a dozen countries and regions participated in the Commonwealth Games, but 44 countries participated in the 1924 Paris Olympics.

"Don't forget that we are currently in the midst of an economic crisis. It's hard to say how many tourists there will be by then." Holly is planning ahead. Even though southern Africa is not affected much by the economic crisis, in the "Times" report, European and American countries are really

awful.

There are now farmers in the United States pouring milk into the Mississippi River. Many terms related to Hoover have appeared in society, such as Hoover Village, Hoover Car, Hoover Blanket, etc.

Hooverville refers to the homeless people in the city who built simple shelters with wooden boards, old iron sheets, oilcloth and even kraft paper. The villages where these huts gather are called "Hoovervilles".

For the same reason, homeless people's begging bags are called "Hoover bags."

Cars that were pulled by animal power because they could not afford fuel were called "Hoover cars."

As for the "Hoover blanket", it is the newspaper covered by homeless people sleeping on benches on the streets.

It's summer in the United States in July, so sleeping under a newspaper is acceptable, but it's winter.

I don’t know how many Americans will freeze to death this winter.

"Holly, don't worry about this problem. The middle class will be most severely affected by the economic crisis. The rich will not be affected at all, and neither will the poor, because they have nothing to lose." Rock's understanding of the economic crisis,

Far more than Holly and Shi Qi.

Although it sounds a bit cruel, it is the truth.

Do you still remember the rich people who stood on the balcony on the second floor with wine glasses during the Wall Street Movement and watched the excitement?

Every economic crisis does not affect the really rich people much.

The rich here do not refer to the nouveau riche who operate with debt. Their risk of fighting an economic crisis is even lower. When the economic crisis broke out, those who committed suicide by jumping from the New York Securities Building were basically these people.

The rich people Rock refers to are those capitalists who truly control all aspects of social economy, such as financial groups like Rockefeller and Morgan.

Compared with the miserable middle class, every economic crisis is a good opportunity for large financial groups to plunder social wealth.

"Fortunately, we are in southern Africa." It took Shi Qi a long time to say this.

"No, I should say, fortunately we have a strong federal government!" Holly flattered without showing any trace, and Shi Qi should learn from it.
