C2124 The Chaos of London 4 (1/2)
After all, he was qualified to be one of the top politicians in the British Prime Minister. Grasal had very strict self-discipline, a party battle was important, but what method to fight was more important.
A truly top-notch politician was not something that a despicable official could compare with. They had a strong moral bottom line and a strong sense of purpose.
No matter how strong the political battle was, Gladstone, Benjamin and the others would not harm the Empire's interests. It was just like how Gladstone rejected Benjamin's plan to allocate a financial sum to the Empire four times, but when Zhiyuan Warship won consecutively, and used actual combat to prove the outstanding performance of the Iron-armored Ship.
However, Gladstone did not take's latest funding for naval ships at all. He quickly passed it and requested that all members of the Liberal Party should not cause any trouble.
This was what a principled, bottom-line politician was like. They would never fall into disarray when faced with great right and great wrong. It was precisely because of this that they managed to gain the trust of the Queen.
Benjamin, Gladstone and the deceased Count de Beer were the most influential prime ministers in the Victorian era in Britain, and also the queen's right-hand men.
Of course, he was willing to see Benjamin make a joke, so it was in the interest of the Liberal Party to stir up some trouble at the convention.
But it didn't matter if they came to watch the show, it wouldn't do if they just directly created it. If the Liberal Party were to cause trouble with her hands, the situation would become much lower.
More importantly, it was the royal family's attitude. Although the current Britain was a constitutional monarchy and the government had been given to the Prime Minister, one must not forget that the royal family also had a killing weapon, which was prestige.
This thing was too scary. If the people loved the Queen, then the Queen would have a great influence over the people. The Queen could not interfere with the government, but once the Queen intervened in something, it would not be impossible.
”Gentlemen, is it really necessary to let the queen know for the sake of the fighting spirit of the two parties? Do you think the Queen would agree to do something so low class? ”Wake up …”
Thinking about it carefully, this was really the case. A few of the politicians of Liberal Party sighed and shook their heads, no longer insisting, but they hid their viciousness in their hearts and were probably waiting to settle the score.
”It's just a bit unreconciled. They are clearly our political enemies, yet our people want to help them work. Sigh …”
Gladstone patted his shoulder. ”Don't worry, today is not a day for Benjamin to show off his strength. Just you all wait to broaden your horizons …”
Today's London was an eye-opener. Journalists from every major newspaper in Europe were all over the streets, recording everything in front of them with their cameras and pens.
”Chaos, unprecedented chaos. I've lived in London for more than ten years, and this is the first time I've seen such a large gathering of citizens …”
”The closer we get to the meeting place, the more crowded the crowd becomes. Even the road that the envoys have to take has been filled with people. Oh god, there's a conflict ahead …”
”How many people are there today? A hundred thousand, or two hundred thousand? ”It's far more than that. I'm afraid at least three hundred thousand people have come today. This is unbelievable …”
”The place is filled with the hubbub of people. There are endless conflicts between big and small. The London police today will probably need to do one week's worth of work in a single day …”
”Everyone has underestimated the charisma of the Eastern Ambassador Group. It seems like the series of Eastern Chinese reports from before has already become very popular …”
”Can you tell me what you want to see the most? This gentleman, miss... This cute little angel, can you accept our interview? ”
