British civil servant

Alan Wilson went to No. [-] Downing Street. Prime Minister Aiden asked him to go. It is undeniable that he let out a sigh of relief for the beloved Prime Minister, which made Aiden very satisfied.

Aiden also cared about who the leaker might be, and took it very seriously.

"For matters within the Conservative Party, if we speak out, it may damage Whitehall's neutral image." Alan Wilson pondered for a while and said, "But the doctor is fine, this can be ruled out first, will it? Could it have been inadvertently leaked by the Prime Minister's family?"

Alan Wilson first ruled out the doctor's question, and then took the opposite attitude to provide the possibility of leaks by the prime minister's relatives?In fact, there is only one role, which is to lock the scope of suspicion at the top of the Conservative Party.

"It is impossible for my family to disclose the matter of drug dependence." Aiden categorically rejected this suspicion, and followed the two possibilities excluded by Alan Wilson, and began to have doubts about the Conservative Party.

"Investigating the minister is not an easy task after all." Alan Wilson was a little embarrassed. "Even if it is the prime minister's intention, as the affairs officer who implements the cabinet's instructions, it is quite difficult for us. To be honest, we may be in the future. We're troubled."

Today's congressmen and ministers may be tomorrow's prime minister. If the person under investigation, even if it is a secret investigation, becomes the prime minister in the future, then as the direct leader of the investigation, Alan Wilson, secretary-general of the Joint Intelligence Committee, wouldn't he The risk of being counterattacked again?

Aiden is also very clear about this, and it cannot be ruled out that someone is peeping at the artifact, and someone within the Conservative Party wants to replace him as prime minister.

"It's very reasonable for you to suspect...you are worried." Aiden nodded solemnly, and said in a low voice, "So it should be done in secret. Of course, we don't doubt any talented person who is inspired to benefit the country, but to some extent Now it is also for safeguarding national interests, and at this sensitive moment, it is unforgivable that someone is undermining Britain's determination to safeguard national interests."

"I understand, Prime Minister." Sensing the Prime Minister's determination to safeguard national interests, Alan Wilson also took a step forward in thinking, and then asked, "I heard that the Prime Minister is going to invite Soviet astronauts to visit the UK. Confused. Some voices think, will it cause dissatisfaction in the United States?"

"I am an expert in foreign policy." Aiden suddenly frowned slightly after speaking, as if remembering something.

"Then, Prime Minister, I'll go back first." Alan Wilson turned around and left No. [-] Downing Street as if he didn't see Aiden's strange look. It was another day to benefit the society.

Since the invitation was made with the courtesy of the Soviet Union's aerospace industry for the great progress of mankind, it should be within the scope of cultural exchanges.

In the absence of other people's objections, Alan Wilson formally issued a visit invitation to Moscow through diplomatic channels.

Putting on a mask and leaving the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Alan Wilson sneaked into the warm harbor. Hepburn also noticed the recent lace news, "It seems that many people in the United States are very supportive of Kennedy."

"So we hate him, we are British." Alan Wilson replied without thinking, "Although there is no direct evidence, the timing is too coincidental. The cabinet has launched a leak investigation."

"You don't seem very happy." Hepburn judged from the subtle expression on Alan Wilson's face.

"You can't check everything, right? What if something is found?" Alan Wilson shook his head and smiled wryly, "It's hard, it's hard."

Isn't it normal to stand up and down again?Big right and wrong, what facts do we need?

The Constitution of the Second Republic stipulates that any French citizen has the right of association, but the law of the Constituent Assembly stipulates the abolition of workers' clubs, and the workers lose their right of association. Isn't the problem solved?

It is best that Eden himself has a range of doubts in this matter, and then civil servants take advantage of the situation to help the Prime Minister to confirm the result.This is good for everyone. I don't know if Aiden will be able to know after today.

The British side is doing public relations for Aiden's drug dependence, and the American side is doing public relations for Kennedy's private life.It was obvious which side the world was interested in.

Aiden is just an old man, and he is drug dependent because of surgery.

What's the inside story here?Kennedy is different. He has a strong background, is young and rich, and the gossip is about the relationship between men and women, which is something that people like to hear and see. The difficulty of pressing the heat is completely different.

Soon things about Aiden had cooled down in Britain, while coverage of Kennedy intensified.

Despite Kennedy's popularity with the press and the public, negative news about his private life continued to mount.There are too many to respond to, this time in the contest of public opinion, your father or your father...

In terms of public opinion in the English-speaking world, Britain and the United States are on equal footing and have a broad foundation.Starting from the lower three roads to counterattack, it quickly affected the entire English-speaking world.

This is not a problem of Britain and the United States. After the matter of Aiden lost heat, it became a problem of the entire English-speaking world and the United States.

In the name of inviting Yuri Gagarin to show favor to the Soviet Union, discussions arose in the Kremlin.

"Before, I underestimated the United Kingdom and made the Americans flustered." Shelepin said in surprise, "It's been so long, and you still don't let go on the Iran issue?"

"This is beneficial to us." Kozlov made a direct judgment, and there is nothing more gratifying than the fact that the enemy camp is not united.

"Comrade Kozlov's opinion is very important." Fultseva said softly, "Actually, Britain and France are very unwilling to be the followers of the Americans. We must also carry out targeted struggles so that we can win the final victory. Germany China and Japan have been deeply controlled by the United States, and if Britain and France become like this, the situation we face will be much more difficult than it is now."

Although it is a dog-eat-dog struggle within imperialism, Fultseva still unconsciously wants to speak for Britain, with an absolute public heart and absolutely no personal feelings in it.

Gagarin, as No.1 in space, is now undoubtedly the absolute star of the fifth planet. He has received more than a dozen invitations to visit. From the perspective of the Soviet Union, it is natural to make good use of this wave of traffic.

Soon, the Kremlin made a decision regarding the visit invitation from the UK, accepting the visit invitation, together with invitations from France and Italy to form a diplomatic visit this time. There is no need to be so anxious about the time, and some preparations are needed.

After Fultseva returned home, she looked around at herself in the mirror, and a look of dissatisfaction flashed across her face. She should pay close attention to exercise recently to maintain a good physical condition.

On Kennedy's side, he was struggling with shameless personal attacks. He didn't expect his personal affairs to cause such a big disturbance. His wife, Jacqueline, also understood her husband's difficulties, and knew that he should take the initiative to clarify, at least clarifying about her Husband and her sister thing.

Chapter 82 Honor and Punishment

"It turns out that Kennedy and I still have something in common." Jacqueline's rumors about her brother-in-law and sister-in-law quickly spread to the UK in this era of globalization. They should be good friends, but they have to be their own masters.

Of course, this is the only thing they have in common. He believes that with his own care, he should not run into a psychopath.

Alan Wilson still believes that the issue of Kennedy will eventually be resolved by the Americans themselves. If they can call off the curtain in that way, it is not as simple as one or two people, or one or two forces that offend, but public outrage can only be executed in public. .

In the United States, a legal country with many parties and interest groups, who has such a great right to attack the Kennedy brothers? In the case of the president, the presidential candidate has been assassinated twice in a row and can hide the truth from the public. The answer is only the US government, that is, The US government is composed of many senior politicians and interest groups.

No one person, or a group of arms dealers has such a great ability to kill the president and presidential candidates.

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 spares time to eat melons, he can't always care about things outside the UK.

Now that the public relations crisis about Aiden is over, the voters have chosen to forgive the prime minister for his drug dependence.

Of course, Aiden himself also publicly stated that he would 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 Labor Party is eyeing him that he has not made a big move.

He is also questioned by the House of Commons, and Harold Wilson is now the shadow foreign secretary.The Labor Party has been very concerned about whether the UK's position on the Iran oil crisis has wavered.

Busy accepting inquiries and launching leak investigations are the tasks facing Alan Wilson in the near future. Can't they all be investigated?But you have to pretend to do your best.

"I don't know the prime minister's health status. In fact, I haven't seen the prime minister a few times." Mrs. Thatcher, a member of the backbench, looked at the old acquaintance in front of her, pretending to be calm and cooperating with the other party's inquiry.

"Margaret..." Alan Wilson was interrupted by Mrs. Thatcher as soon as he spoke, "It's better to call Mrs. Thatcher, Sir Alan. Work is work, and it's better to be more formal."

"Okay, Mrs. Thatcher." Alan Wilson showed a bitter smile, as if he was sad because of the birth of the two, "Then respectful MP, I don't have any special questions. But please answer today's inquiry. Keep it a secret and don't let it out, even to your husband."

Alan Wilson, who finally got in touch with Mrs. Thatcher again, tried his best to resolve the embarrassing 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 is irretrievable, which is very emotional.

At the end of the questioning, Alan Wilson stretched out his hand as farewell, and Mrs. Thatcher held the extended hand with hesitation on her face.Then he watched the man's back disappear from sight, and he looked away after a long time.

At the Prime Minister’s Residence at No. [-] Downing Street, Norman Brooke is also discussing with Prime Minister Eden about some job adjustments. Regarding foreign affairs, Norman Brooke praised, “Colleagues believe that the current diplomatic team is post-war At the most powerful moment, in addition to your personal concern as the Prime Minister, the Foreign Secretary Macmillan also contributed a lot, and Allen said that the Foreign Secretary’s work attitude is admirable, and he has nothing to help at all.”

"You can't say that, can you?" Aiden frowned, not happy because he was praised by the cabinet secretary.

"How could it be? If it wasn't for the foreign minister's visit to New Delhi, how could we have made India listen to the British? We must know that Nehru is now wholeheartedly committed to making India a powerful country. He is actually a very difficult person to deal with. He is not only the prime minister He also serves as foreign minister and controls the whole of India."

Norman Brook admired, "Including India in the six-party talks is definitely a proud work. This is recognized by everyone."

"Actually, I think that McMillan can focus on more things. Now the country still has a lot of things to care about." Aiden said his thoughts word by word, "Norman, a country can't only have diplomacy. Of course, It's just a half-baked idea on my part, if the Foreign Office is popular with Macmillan?"

"The Foreign Office and Whitehall love every government!" Norman Brooke responded solemnly, and then changed the topic, "Our duty is to ensure the stable operation of the government. If Macmillan is suddenly allowed to leave? Will it cause the government to Misunderstood decision? I think there's a different way."

"What way?" Aiden asked as soon as he heard it, waiting for Norman Brook'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, can we let Macmillan have a part-time job first? I think we can arrange him to be the president of Oxford University first, so as to dispel doubts." .If the cabinet is reorganized at that time, it will be logical to carry out transfers. Most ministers will not object."

Of course, this decision will have to be approved by the Oxford University Council, the highest authority, before it can be implemented.But for Norman Brooke, this matter is not difficult.

Otherwise, how could Norman Brook maintain a harmonious relationship with every head of government?Once this kind of thing happened, Norman Brook never shy away from it, but from the perspective of the prime minister, he personally tried to solve the problem for the prime minister.

While the cabinet secretary was busy solving the prime minister's problems, Alan Wilson finally completed the report of the leak investigation. With the most solid answer, it seemed to be a lengthy written proof of his own: "Conclusive Evidence-Detailed Details of the Leak Report" ".

The material is dry narrative for the most part, but here and there there is an indignation at the slanderous insinuations received, almost in response to the indignation of the House of Commons.The statement about the internal investigation is...

Make it up until it's supposed to be fact, and then spread it as fact?

The whole process is, cannot and will not be allowed to object.Gossip is not without prejudice against the Prime Minister, but when asked if it is true, the answer is no.

If these facts are told by people who have no interest in it, it will help to enhance the credibility of the prime minister. On the contrary, subjective assumptions without any opinions of their own; and the media are all echoers.Noble inquiries are utterly useless.

"Am I going to deal with this useless nonsense for the rest of my life?" Not to mention handing it over to the Prime Minister, Alan Wilson would have had trouble reading it by himself. He seemed to have said everything and said nothing.

Now if this report is lost, he himself is not sure to do it a second time. He does not know how many brain cells will be damaged to demonstrate this nonsense again. The only useful thing in the report is the self-statement of the people under investigation. Of course, among these people, there is no connection with Macmillan.

Quite simply, Alan Wilson was not ordered to investigate Macmillan, either explicitly or implicitly.

After a brief hesitation, Alan Wilson decided to make a copy of the report. This 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.

Then he sent this leak investigation report to Whitehall, and passed it to Prime Minister Eden through the hands of Norman Brooke.

This report was seen by Prime Minister Eden, and then it was put aside, nothing was said, and everything was said.

No matter from any point of view, as one of the two universities in the UK, the president of Oxford University is a great honor. Under normal circumstances, it is rarely awarded to the incumbent ministers. It is the honor 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, personally expressed the Prime Minister's approval of Macmillan's work in a warm manner, "Harold, it is a great honor, and I am grateful for it." Envious."

"Norman, why did the Prime Minister award me the chancellor of Oxford University?" Macmillan was puzzled, and even a little confused, why did he suddenly fall on himself?

"It may be to commend the minister's outstanding contribution in the field of diplomacy. After the minister has been busy for more than a year, we...the prime minister has watched." Norman Brooke laughed, "There is no doubt that the president of Oxford University The honor is absolutely extraordinary, being able to serve at this time is the same treatment as many prime ministers."

Of course, Norman Brooke can't say that this is an appropriate punishment for Macmillan, disobedience to authority, disrespectful words and deeds, and behavior that does not conform to the minister. Although this is indeed punishment, it is also an honor.

Punishment and honor are not contradictory at some point, they are just reflected in different stages of the same event.

As for the uneasiness shown by Macmillan, Norman Brook persuaded Macmillan to dismiss the idea.

In the end, Macmillan naturally accepted this honor. At some point in the future, this may also become one of Macmillan's despicable evidences, but whether it is a criminal evidence in the end depends on what Prime Minister Eden thinks at that time.

In this way, Macmillan served as the chancellor of Oxford University in his capacity as foreign secretary.

At the same time, Aiden was thinking about when the time for cabinet reshuffle would come, and he could make an adjustment to the ministers.

Chapter 83 The Bay of Pigs Incident

Bang... Norman Brooke took a sip and put down his glass. He is not good at drinking, so just take a sip. "Do you know why the Prime Minister finally adopted my suggestion?"

"I don't understand, sir!" Alan Wilson also put down his glass, with a guessing meaning, "Are you suspicious of the foreign secretary's disloyalty? Suspected that he was the one who leaked it?"

"This is just one aspect. Reliability is of course very important, but there are other reasons." Norman Brook chuckled and said, "This time the Iranian oil crisis, after all, our opponent is extraordinary, Although we have tried our best up to now, it is also a fact that we are under pressure from the United States anytime and anywhere. You are the permanent deputy minister of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and you know it best."

Alan Wilson nodded, and Norman Brooke continued, "The cabinet will naturally do its best to strive for a result that is beneficial to the UK, but if it ends up being counterproductive? Naturally, there will be no accountability, but someone needs to be brave enough to bear it. An explanation."

"So Macmillan's position as Foreign Secretary will not be changed for the time being, and Macmillan will feel relieved after a while."

Norman Brook said, "This is the current value of the foreign minister, and it is also the prime minister's own idea. We are just pushing the boat along the way and creating a condition that should be done."

The first leader enjoys flowers and applause, while the second leader takes the blame and resigns?Allen Wilson sighed secretly, sure enough!The whole world is self-taught in this field. The so-called other countries will not be so good, it is just the imagination of ordinary people.

Once Britain finally has to compromise, Eden will be out of luck for Macmillan in order to ensure that his approval rating does not drop.

Everyone in Whitehall naturally knows that the Prime Minister is personally concerned about the current British foreign policy, but the voters don't know that Macmillan still holds the post of Foreign Secretary.It is indeed a matter of course that the responsibility for compromise should be attributed to the foreign secretary.

"The Prime Minister is already invincible." Alan Wilson sighed. After all, Aiden has many years of experience as a foreign minister and avoided the mines of the Suez Canal War. Usually, it is really not to be underestimated.

"Actually, aren't they all politicians like this?" Norman Brooke said in a condescending tone, "Those mediocre and impetuous guys think about everything--prosperity, promotion and wealth, and increasingly rich life! Once things don't go well It’s either a “lack of opportunity,” or someone is obstructing it.”

"Every floor is the same, people have greed, and naturally politicians have it, some people could have accepted a city council position and be free there, have their own house, and grow flowers and vegetables in the backyard. But There is a stubborn pride, too much faith in one's ability and science, not to want to bury oneself in a barren place with only three streets and a pile of pigs. There, in obscurity, playing cards in Parliament."

"So the obstinacy of the rapacious commoner expects rich patients to come to his doctor, school hires, family visits in his own car, and a dowry blonde for his wife. He believes in the right to After obtaining these happiness, but the happiness did not come for a long time, he gradually became depressed, desolate, and full of resentment towards life."

"Day after day, more and more hours of nail-biting, hateful silence; on better days, full of biting witticisms--that harsh sound like a cold blade."

Alan Wilson was silent. He could feel that when Norman Brook said these words, he seemed to have seen it with his own eyes. Maybe it was a friend from the past, maybe the relationship between the two had been very good.

"The top management is also full of mediocre people with their own sophistication, but as long as you don't think you are extremely smart and have self-knowledge, even if something goes wrong, there is still a chance to make amends."

After accepting the post of president of Oxford University, everything was calm as usual. After a few days, McMillan also let go of his worries. The sun will rise as usual tomorrow morning, nothing special.

Alan Wilson has nothing else to do, just looking for troubles in Germany and Japan, which are deeply controlled by the United States.Especially the Hellman Petroleum Company, which is trying to poach the British corner.

The Dragoon sisters had to accept the iron fist of the Saigon boxing champion, and were frequently investigated by the British Joint Intelligence Committee. For this reason, they traveled across the Strait, which also aroused protests from the Federal Government of Germany.

"The defeated country has nothing to protest, unless it wants to betray the free world." Alan Wilson, with half a cigar in his mouth, was full of satisfaction, and leaned lazily on the head of the bed. What's the matter with asking for trouble? You can just laugh secretly?"

The warmth in the room is very good, and the dragoon sisters don't need to wear a disguise, lying naked on the side, listening to the man's whining and weird words, saying that Britain has the greatest sincerity, this is such a vulgar language.

"How are the sons still studying?" Putting down the cigar, Alan Wilson squeezed between the two sisters, with rain and dew on each shoulder, like a loving father.

Following the Hanskoch brothers of the two sisters, Alan Wilson still gave high hopes. The Federal Republic of Germany is an old powerhouse. Although it has lost the territory of the GDR, its population is still higher than that of Britain and France.Now the economy has surpassed France and ranks second in Europe.

The number one in Europe is naturally the UK. From this point of view, Alan Wilson is worthy of the UK. Over the years, he has traveled around the entire earth to create such a situation. Let alone a backbench member, even a special princess He accepted the treatment with peace of mind.

"You still know that you have a child." Anna held her head up and showed her pride, saying how this man gave birth to his first child. In Moscow, across the Iron Curtain, the cultural tsar was sweating profusely, reshaping his body through exercise, sending out bursts There was a muffled hum.

Although Anna lives like a rice bug, she is absolutely relentless when it comes to educating the next generation.The standard is to pin your hopes on your children. What your mother can't do, you must do when you grow up.

If it is a family with ordinary conditions, Anna's method of transferring pressure will only bring huge pressure to the brothers, which is harmful to their growth. However, the Hellman Manor in Bonn has this condition to support the guarantee of all the growth of the brothers.

Even Pokina is very satisfied with Anna's performance. The two brothers are very good, which makes her mother very pleased.

"When they grow up, they should know the existence of my father." Alan Wilson also showed his uncompromising character of selfishness when he opened his mouth.When the child is born, the woman will take care of it, and when it comes to picking peaches, there must be a father like myself.

"Why, hey..." Anna just expressed her dissatisfaction, and one of her palms precisely landed on her buttocks. In an instant, Anna burst into tears, "I gave birth to you for nothing, I was so young at that time..."

"An incident happened in Germany recently, and it should have lasted for a long time. A large number of deformed children were born..." Pokina opened her mouth to divert the man's attention. "Now there are some rumors spreading in the society, and the government is also very embarrassing."
