Alan Wilson, who had already entered the deep mountains and forests, knew that Pamela Mountbatten had arrived in Australia, so he was not worried at all about achieving his goal. As the saying goes, blood is thicker than water.
After the Nassau Agreement is signed in the future, if a nuclear war breaks out, Britain will have already suffered catastrophe.
Two of the top-secret registrations of British nuclear submarines involve two countries respectively. The first is that if the United States still exists, it will directly accept the command of the United States to launch a counterattack, and the other is to go to Australia.
Australia has a vast territory and a sparse population. It is separated from the mainstream European and American countries and faces the demographic advantages of Asian countries. It has always been strongly vigilant. However, until 1942, Australia was clearly guided by the interests of the British Empire.
After the United States entered the World War in 1942, Australian local political circles were full of favorable impressions of the United States almost instantly. The impression of the United States became extremely positive, mainly because Japan was approaching step by step and Australia could not resist with its own capabilities.
But so far, Britain and the United States are still equal priorities in the eyes of Australians. This understanding will continue until the 1960s, when the United States will completely establish its advantage over Britain's influence in Australia.
Who told the Royal Navy that it was almost finished by the 1960s? In the context of close cultural sentiments, we must also face the facts.
Alan Wilson's guess is indeed similar. This is almost a replica of Pamela Mountbatten's arrival in Australia. The British have always had a psychological advantage over the Australians.
It’s just that when she came, Alan Wilson once specifically reminded her not to show such arrogance. In fact, the cost of living of Australians is much lower than that of British people. As long as the population does not reach the upper limit of Australian land, this will always exist.
As of now, the UK is still Australia's largest trading country, with 45% of Australia's imports and 30% of Australia's exports related to the UK.
Pamela Mountbatten and a group of aristocratic ladies negotiated the exploration plan with the Australian government very smoothly, just like General Mountbatten became the Prime Minister of Australia.
Pamela Mountbatten was educated when Alan Wilson was still in British Malaya. After arriving in Australia, she should do two things. First, don't mention the embarrassing performance of the British army in the Battle of Singapore. If
If you can't escape, you will scold Churchill.
It is said that the British aristocratic officers really wanted to fight for Australia. It was Churchill who did not understand military command and led to the British defeat in the Battle of Singapore.
Another question about the European Community, if anyone asks, just say that it was forced by the Americans and that Britain does not want to lead Europe.
Historically, Churchill's three-ring diplomacy went bankrupt, and after the Suez War, the United Kingdom was forced by the United States to join the European Community. In addition to being humiliated by De Gaulle, the relationship between Australia and the United Kingdom was at a standstill.
Compared with the fall of the Singapore base during World War II, Britain's application to join the European Union had a more fundamental impact on the relationship between Britain and Australia. Australia even condemned Britain's behavior as immoral and dishonest.
In Canberra, Pamela Mountbatten held an expensive cocktail party to express her gratitude to the local Australian elites who were invited, and then said some very flattering words, "If there is another war, I will also
Join the army and defend Australia.”
At the reception, Pamela Mountbatten attributed the British army's shameful performance in the Battle of Singapore to Churchill's micromanaging. At the same time, she stated that no matter how good Europe was, it could not compare to Australia.
As for building goodwill, he mentioned that the royal family and the aristocracy admire Australia because Australia is the place where criminals immigrate. Saying this as an aristocrat will make Australians feel valued.
The aristocracy's dislike of Churchill is real, but it has nothing to do with Australia. It is entirely because the aristocracy suffered heavy losses in the world war.
That was not just an inheritance tax issue. Before the war, many British companies were owned by nobles.
But because in the world war, Churchill wanted to fight to the end, and under Roosevelt's strength, the Lend-Lease Act was extremely unfavorable to Britain, resulting in a large number of companies owned by aristocrats being sold to the United States under Churchill's pressure.
The United States specially "tailored" an additional clause for the United Kingdom: "The United Kingdom must sell all valuable enterprises in the United States before receiving assistance from the United States." This provision means that the United Kingdom has to sell a large amount of high-quality goods in the United States to the United States at a low price.
Industry. When the British government protested, it received a cold reply from the United States: "The U.S. government believes that this sacrifice is necessary.
Rolls-Royce, which is still in the UK, was just one of the large numbers of high-quality companies that were accepted by the United States. A large number of high-quality companies operating in the United States were sold to the United States by Churchill overnight, resulting in heavy losses for British capital.
.
Naturally, Pamela Mountbatten was very sincere when she criticized Churchill and the aristocratic lady who came to Australia with her supported her, even though the relationship between Churchill and Mountbatten was actually very good.
No matter how good the relationship was, Pamela Mountbatten's hostility to cutting off people's money could not be overcome. If her fiancé hadn't created a gap in British Newfoundland, the aristocracy would have been helpless in the current British environment.
How can one say whether Alan Wilson's actions in Newfoundland will hurt the government's revenue?
In the long run, it will definitely happen, but the world war has already been fought, and there has been no war that killed a large number of nobles in a short period of time. The next batch of noble heirs will have their bones and marrow sucked out by the government, which will be at least ten years later.
Therefore, this kind of damage is not very urgent for government revenue, but the aristocracy views this matter differently. Facing the London government, the aristocracy is now in a weak position, especially for families with only female heirs.
When women's rights become popular in a few decades, they will be able to blow up the government.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! But now the nobles can only endure silently. After Britain fought the world war, the country has not been able to recover, but it has become the largest investment for decades.
The country is definitely not without reason. A large number of nobles must transfer their wealth to prevent it from becoming government revenue in the name of inheritance tax.
Alan Wilson is just taking advantage of Newfoundland's current special status to guide these fleeing capitals to settle in a place that is relatively safe for the UK. If he doesn't do this, these fleeing capitals will also go to the United States. Most of them will go to the United States.
People will never sit still and wait for death.
In terms of inheritance tax, London has no feeling in the short term, and there has never been a war that killed a large number of nobles for them to harvest.
The current Prime Minister of Australia is Joseph Benedict Chifley. Coincidentally, he is the representative figure in Australian political circles who hopes that Britain can quickly restore its national strength.
In fact, given Australia's economic situation, it should have been out of the rationing system long ago. However, Chifley still withstood the pressure and maintained the wartime economic control policy, including the high oil price policy, which made the public not understanding of him.
In fact, since Australia's trade relied heavily on Britain, Chifley's purpose in helping Britain was to hope that the British economy would quickly recover and its politics would stabilize after the war, which would naturally have many benefits for Australia's politics and economy.
Two days after this cocktail party, Chifley summoned the representative of Mountbatten Exploration Company, namely Pamela Mountbatten. Prime Minister Chifley first asked very intimately how the situation in British India was.
This is because fierce conflicts broke out between the Peace Christians and Hindus in British India. In the area centered on Calcutta, the two major sects had religious conflicts, and tens of thousands of people died.
This conflict, which originated in Calcutta, has spread to all parts of British India and is the biggest news in the world recently.
"The two major sects in India have been hostile for hundreds of years, and my father is helpless." Pamela Mountbatten said obediently, "For two years, my father and the civil servants of British India have been trying their best to bridge the conflict. Now, here comes
It seems to have little effect.”
"Oh, that's right." Prime Minister Chifley nodded clearly, "I don't know how far the country has recovered."
"The situation in London is not bad." As for what Prime Minister Chifley said about the country, Pamela Mountbatten knew that she was actually talking about the United Kingdom. Because the Imperial System of Preferences was still there, Australians could be regarded as subjects of the British Empire in a certain sense.
If Alan Wilson were here, he would also know that the reason why Britain finally joined the European Community was unacceptable to Australia was that at the same time as Britain joined the European Community, it began to treat Australia and some autonomous territories as foreigners. This seriously hurt the Australians.
emotion.
Sure enough, Prime Minister Chifley nodded happily and said, "Once London fully recovers, it will have huge benefits for economic and trade relations with Australia."
"This is also the purpose of my coming to Australia, dear Prime Minister." Pamela Mountbatten strictly followed the instructions of her fiancé and carefully prepared a series of words. From the time she arrived in Australia until now, the effect has been very good.
Both the government and the elite are very fond of these aristocratic ladies from London, and they are praised by everyone in Canberra.
After meeting with Prime Minister Chifley, the Australian government announced that Mountbatten Exploration Company will have the right to conduct mineral exploration throughout Australia. All costs will be borne by the exploration company alone. It also stated that Mountbatten Exploration Company will remove mineral resources from Australia.
The efforts of the Poor Country Hatters have won the support of a large number of nobles in London.
Then Pamela Mountbatten directly registered a mining company in Canberra. According to the agreement with the Australian government, the mining company will have priority mining rights for the discovered minerals. The contract states that after the mining company discovers resources, it will negotiate with Australia
The government and state governments divide profits.
In fact, for Australia, which has implemented a ban on iron ore exports for decades, the sharing agreement prepared by Pamela Mountbatten is very conscientious and even takes care of Australia's feelings.
