The British Prime Minister actually has greater power than the US President. The US President has to submit cabinet appointments to Congress for review and approval. The British Prime Minister can appoint them directly without the consent of Congress, let alone the king.
In Southern Africa, the power of the Prime Minister has been further amplified. The British Prime Minister can only dissolve the House of Commons, but cannot dissolve the House of Lords. There is only one Congress in Southern Africa, and it can be dissolved at any time.
After the dinner, it was Rock and Winston's private time. Sitting on the large terrace of Eagle Castle, Winston was finally able to open up and talk about his heart.
"Actually, I had known this would happen for a long time, but I didn't know that this day would come so quickly. I thought they would at least wait until their intervention against the new Russian government failed before launching an attack. I didn't expect them to be so impatient." Winston said with a hint of sadness.
After all, I am still unwilling to give up.
This day is not too far away. Russia is about to enter winter at the end of August. The Allied forces must end the war before winter. Otherwise, what awaits the Allied forces will be catastrophe.
Russian troops in winter have unparalleled talent bonuses.
"Them?" Rock realized that Winston had so many political opponents.
"Many people, Neville, Andrew Bonar Law, and even the king who never expresses his opinion easily, they need a scapegoat to be responsible for the continuous decline of the British Empire." Winston knew very well that for the British Empire,
It is said that the concerted efforts during the world war were only an illusion done under special conditions and that this situation is the norm now.
The political environment is indeed bad enough.
The night dew was slightly cool, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse. A large bird that had been unknown until now flew over the Eagle Fort. The sound of whistles and music could be heard faintly in the distance. The lights of Luo City at the foot of the mountain complemented each other with the bright sky above.
"Think of something fun. I will go hunting with you tomorrow. What do you want to hunt? Antelope? Wildebeest? Or a lion." Rock accompanied Winston by eating, drinking, and playing, satisfying all of Winston's requirements.
"There are still lions in Nyasaland?" Winston immediately became energetic when he mentioned hunting.
"Nyaasaland doesn't have it, but Tanganyika does--" Roque's expression was slightly stiff. There was a lion mauling incident in Tanganyika a few days ago, and it is only separated from Luo City by a lake.
In the past few days, the Los Angeles military and police departments have mobilized to find and kill the lion that attacked humans. With the expansion of humans, there are fewer and fewer wild animals in southern Africa, especially large wild animals such as lions and crocodiles.
Hiding everywhere.
"Okay, let's go hunting tomorrow, and we can eat whatever we hunt until noon." Since Winston became Prime Minister, he has not had similar entertainment activities for a long time.
Winston and his family stayed at Eagle Castle at night.
After a night of silence, Rock and Winston set out early the next morning.
Since it is hunting, it must look like hunting. Both Rock and Winston are in riding attire, and Winston also wants to ride a horse. Horse racing is very popular in southern Africa, and Eagle Castle also raises dozens of blood horses.
It is an excellent and precious horse breed. Rock chose a white sweat horse. Winston still prefers purebred horses, so he chose a pure black one.
One black and one white are really contrasting.
Hunting is a noble sport with a long history and is also very popular in Africa.
Rock and Winston definitely don't have to work hard to find prey like ordinary hunters. Naturally, experienced hunters take the initiative to drive the prey in front of Rock and Winston. Rock and Winston only need to aim at the prey and start shooting.
Just shoot the gun.
Of course, neither of them was thinking about hunting. What Winston and Rock were discussing today was the future relationship between the British Empire and southern Africa.
"Although the British Empire is now in full decline, its status remains unshakable in a short period of time. If Southern Africa remains within the Commonwealth, both the Commonwealth and Southern Africa will benefit from this. If Southern Africa secedes from the Commonwealth, then
You will lose the huge market in the Commonwealth, you won't deny this." Winston was sure that Rock would not be stupid.
Just last month, the British government just passed the "Revised Imperial Preferential Tariffs", which will further reduce tariffs within the Commonwealth and at the same time adjust tariffs on foreign trade.
The controversy over imperial preferential tariffs has been going on for a long time. There have been many debates between free traders and protectionist tradeists in the UK. Free traders advocate the implementation of a trade system similar to that of the United States, reducing tariffs and increasing protection of free trade.
Protection trade activists suggest raising foreign trade tax rates and increasing protection for British companies.
Rock was originally a protectionist trade activist, but with the rise of southern Africa in the past two years, Britain's domestic protectionist trade advocates excluded overseas companies from the scope of trade protection, which made Rock very angry.
Southern Africa is an overseas autonomous territory of the United Kingdom. Once protective trade rises, Southern African companies will also be treated as foreign companies. Southern African products will have to pay more tariffs if they want to enter the UK. This will seriously affect Southern African products.
competitiveness.
"Free trade is unrealistic. What Americans call free trade is different from what we understand as free trade. What Americans are best at is double standards. When free trade is more beneficial to American companies, Americans will link free trade to
In words, when free trade is unfavorable to American companies, American free trade will turn into protective trade." Rock will oppose the United States whenever it comes, which is also the sentiment of the vast majority of British people.
"Yeah, it's a pity that not everyone understands this." Winston also has a clear understanding of the Americans, but it is a pity that Winston in another time and space is mostly in a dormant state and cannot have enough influence on Britain.
In this time and space, Winston's influence on Britain was much greater.
Even though Winston has many political enemies, he also has many friends. Rock is Winston's best and most important ally.
"Coming -" There was vague dust flying in the distance, and then there was the sound of a large group of animals running. Rock subconsciously clenched the shotgun in his hand.
"Hahahaha, look at me!" Winston was full of confidence, aiming at a huge wildebeest and pulling the trigger.
Boom!
The wildebeest was frightened, and kept rumbling past the armored vehicle where Rock and Winston were.
Rock laughed so much that he hiccupped, and Winston's face turned red. He had been sitting in an office all year round, so he was indeed a hand-picker. What's more, Winston had never been a good hunter.
Not only wildebeests and antelopes are rushing towards you, but also huge elephants and giraffes, as well as rhinoceros that run as fast as a train.
Instead of shooting those precious animals, Rock aimed his gun at a huge wildebeest and pulled the trigger.
Boom!
The wildebeest fell down in response, Roark was triumphant, and Winston looked ugly.
It's understandable that the Prime Minister can't shoot accurately, but it would be too embarrassing if the Minister of Defense can't shoot accurately either. Roque is a famous sharpshooter.
Since they have hunted wildebeest, Rock and Winston will eat wildebeest for lunch.
This process definitely does not require Rock and Winston to do anything. Naturally, guards will drag the wildebeest away, disembowel it, and then roast the best meat and send it to Rock and Winston. Rock
He and Winston built a pavilion under a big tree, and they drank ice-cold wine and ate barbecue while chatting.
The life of a feudal official is indeed more interesting than that of a minister in the cabinet.
The key is to do whatever you want, and in Nyasaland and the surrounding areas, Rock is the king.
"The recent situation in Nyasaland is not good either. After the World War, business orders dropped sharply. Arsenals had to switch to producing civilian products, cannon manufacturers switched to aluminum pots, bullet manufacturers switched to iron barrels, and the R&D department was forced to cut wages.
, Civilian companies are also having a hard time. London has raised tariffs in the hope of increasing revenue, while Southern Africa wants to lower tariffs to stimulate exports. My factory has been laying off employees since last year, and the economic crisis is about to come -" Rock's mentality is not bad, and he has laid off employees.
They are all African employees, and employees in Southern Africa have not been affected much.
During the World War, the companies under Rock's name also used a large number of African-American workers. Not only were their wages low, but they were also hard-working and capable and very useful.
It is impossible to be lazy in the company under Roque's name. The vicious supervisor makes the lazy employees understand what a sweatshop is every minute.
Rock's work was quite honest. Although he also exploited African-American employees, the salary he paid was quite good. The food and living conditions were pretty good. There were doctors who checked the workers' health regularly. In this era, what can be done
There are very few factories like these.
"The situation here is even worse. Workers are unemployed, shops are closed, and government employees have to take the initiative to cut their salaries. When I was Chancellor of the Exchequer, my salary was still 5,000 pounds. When I became Prime Minister, I could only receive 3,000 pounds. All the money was taken by you capitalists.
Come on, you still have the nerve to talk about the economic crisis." Winston looked contemptuous, completely unaware that he was actually a capitalist.
Winston has shares in many of Rock's companies, such as the Adan Company, which has occupied the British oil market, the Nyasaland Military Industrial Group, which received massive orders during the World War, and the powerful hidden power in southern Africa.
Industrial behind the Rand Bank and more.
To put it bluntly, if there were no benefits, Winston would not support Rock during the World War.
"It's not like I got it for nothing, at least the money is still in the Commonwealth and has not been stolen by the Americans." Rock said confidently that no one can take advantage of the Americans.
When they returned to Los Angeles in the evening, Clementina Hozier and the children had already gone to the manor that Rock gave to Winston. Rock had dinner at Winston's manor in the evening and gave Clementine
Tina Hozier An opportunity to say thank you.
Before dinner, Winston's eldest daughter Diana performed a violin performance for Rock, and then sang "Auld Lang Syne" with Winston's second daughter Randolph, which won the approval of Rock and Phyllis.
Compliments.
After all, he is going to be an actor in the future, and he is indeed very versatile.
