Chapter 1153 Mrs. Satchel's Crisis!

The Earl and his wife Spencer finished lunch at the Jazz Manor, left here and returned to Norfolk.

In the study of the Jazz Manor.

Yang Ming, Ma Shimin, Shen Yi, Edwards, Lin Xiuzhi, He Chaoxuan, Alina, Yingla and others are here.

"Mr. Shen, I plan to visit the Queen first, and then visit Mrs. Satchel."

"It should be." Shen Yi said.

That's the order. Although the role of the royal family is not as important as the cabinet in Country Y, the role of the royal family and the queen cannot be ignored.

If anyone dares to look down on or despise the queen in Country Y, it will definitely cause trouble.

Before coming to London.

Yang Ming's gifts for the royal family members have been prepared in advance.

He plans to visit the Queen at Buckingham Palace tomorrow morning.

Shen Yi will first inform the royal family and the Queen.

After Shen Yi left, there were several other people here.

Yang Ming talked about Mrs. Satchel's situation.

Since 1979, the conservatives represented by Mrs. Satchel have won a landslide victory in the general election, and Mrs. Satchel has become the first female prime minister of Country Y.

And the role she brought was that in the large-scale privatization process, the Empire Group swallowed up many state-owned industries in Country Y.

Like now, more than two-thirds of the industries in Country Y have been bought by Yang Ming and the Empire Group.

Historically, Li Jiacheng transferred most of the wealth in China and Hong Kong to Country Y, claiming to have bought most of Country Y, but in fact, it is still far from the current Empire Group.

In other words, Mrs. Satchel's rise to power is really important to Yang Ming and the Empire Group.

Moreover, Yang Ming and the Empire Group have always maintained contact and trust with Mrs. Satchel.

With the victory of the 1982 Island War and the help of a fragmented opposition, Mrs. Satchel won an overwhelming victory in the 1983 election.

In the 1987 election, Mrs. Satchel won an unprecedented third term in office. It was around this time.

But controversial policies, including the poll tax and her opposition to any closer integration with Europe, divided the Conservatives, leading to a leadership challenge.

In November 1990, conflict broke out within the Conservatives.

Geoffrey Howe was the last survivor of Mrs. Satchel's first cabinet in 1979.

He was deputy prime minister at the time and was known for his loyalty, but he disagreed with Mrs. Satchel on Country Y's policy towards Europe. At that time, the differences between the two reached a fever pitch.

Another minister, Kenneth Becker, recalled that at a cabinet meeting, "Mrs. Satchel was very rude to Geoffrey. For Geoffrey, that was the last straw and he resigned that evening."

The next day, former Defense Secretary Michael Hartstedt, who favored closer cooperation with Europe, announced that he would challenge Mrs. Satchel for the leadership of the party.

The third day, November 20, just as Mrs. Satchel went to Paris for a summit, the Conservatives held a vote.

On the fourth day, the polls were falling and the results were discouraging for Mrs. Satchell.

On the fifth day, although she defeated Mr. Hartley 204 to 152, under Conservative rules, that margin was not enough to keep her seat.

For this reason, the race became very open and then took an unexpected turn.

As Mrs. Satchell waited for the results of the vote with family and friends at 10 Downing Street, she learned that Hartley had lost to the soft-spoken chancellor of the exchequer, John Major, who was one of her protégés.

When someone commented that her colleagues were unseemly wavering, she replied, "My dear, that's politics."

Although Mrs. Satchell initially vowed to "fight until victory" in the second round of voting, she was eventually persuaded to withdraw from the election.

After communicating with the Queen, talking to other heads of countries, and delivering her final speech in the House of Commons, she resigned on November 28, 1990, and left 10 Downing Street in tears. She felt betrayed.

That is to say.

Although Mrs. Satchel was still at the peak of her life at this time.

In fact, she had already been troubled by internal and external troubles.

Including the self-proclaimed loyal ministers around her, in fact, at a certain critical moment, it is easy to turn against her.

In Yang Ming's opinion, Mrs. Satchel was very prescient in some aspects.

Including Mrs. Satchel's opposition to closer cooperation with Europe, in fact, it was also against the EU, or refused to establish a super EU country.

It can be seen from the later withdrawal of country Y from the EU.

In addition, Mrs. Satchel also opposed the European Monetary Union.

However, now in country Y, except for the opposition labor faction, even the conservatives have many different policies from Mrs. Satchel.

It is precisely because Mrs. Satchel's supporters later became fewer, and even the loyal ministers around her betrayed each other.

Now these things.

Except for Yang Ming, Mai Lisi and others are not clear.

However, they know that if the Empire Group wants to continue to gain more benefits in Country Y and Hong Kong, it must maintain closer cooperation with the superiors.

Among them, the current Mrs. Satchel is a very good partner.

And since 1979, when Mrs. Satchel had not officially become the prime minister, Yang Ming gave her a lot of useful suggestions.

Although Yang Ming is not Mrs. Satchel's staff or her think tank, Mrs. Satchel trusts Yang Ming very much and believes in Yang Ming's ability.

Yang Ming feels that although Mrs. Satchel has been in power for so long and has accumulated a lot of prestige through the Falklands, over time, someone will definitely want to replace her.

In addition, if the interests she represents do not conform to the interests of many people, then she will be replaced by others.

Yang Ming did not talk much about Mrs. Satchel with Miles and others.

He plans to visit the Queen tomorrow morning and meet Mrs. Satchel in the evening.

. . .

That afternoon.

A young white man in his twenties drove over in a Rover sedan.

When he got out of the car, Sarah and Diana had already recognized him.

It was Earl, the younger brother who had been following behind for many years.

Sarah and Diana went to Hong Kong and have not been back for a long time.

When I saw my younger brother again, I didn't expect that my younger brother had graduated from Oxford University.

"Brother."

Sarah and Diana were very happy to see their brother again.

Earl seemed a little reserved.

He knew very well that although these two sisters did not marry into the royal family, they were no worse off than those who did.

"Sister Sarah, Sister Diana." Earl greeted the two sisters separately.
