C2361 The Death Spiral of Hatred (1/2)

Indeed, they should not blame the military for divulging this information. At this moment, not only the people from Capitol Building, even the reporters at the entrance of Capitol Building had received the latest news.

”There's a riot in Dublin. Tens of thousands of armed thugs are attacking the garrison, the Customs building is completely burnt down, and the millions of pounds worth of agricultural and side products that are prepared to be exported in the warehouse district are all burnt down …”

”The most terrifying thing is that the Dublin Castle was attacked. Although it was only the outer walls that were damaged, this is the first time in history …”

”Now that the newspaper has started printing numbers, you have to stay here in the Congress. No matter what method you use, you have to interview them first hand. You have to get their views on this riot!”

The reporters were standing guard outside the door of Congress, racking their brains to think of the questions they would ask later. The House of Commons had become a bustling market.

As messengers from the empire's most powerful departments came to look for their leaders, the news of the Dublin's rebellion began to spread at the speed of light. Everyone's gaze turned towards Prime Minister Benjamin who was in the center of the storm.

Benjamin looked like he suddenly aged ten years, he looked at Gladstone and quietly said, ”War is a matter of priority, I request that this debate be suspended, and I hope that you can consider the situation of the empire as a priority, and that the impeachment process be suspended!”

Gladstone's eyes did not give way at all, but her tone eased a little, ”You are still the Prime Minister of the Empire, dealing with such urgent matters is your responsibility. Of course you can leave this place and call for reinforcements!”

”But... However, the impeachment process cannot be stopped, it definitely will not be stopped! ”

”Gladstone! Are you crazy? With your political skills, don't you understand such a simple thing? Ireland was the central colony of the Empire, and it must not be disturbed! To continue to impeach the Prime Minister when he dispatches his troops is treason! ”

”Don't button my hat. Anger doesn't mean that you are right! ”You know very well that even if the impeachment bill is passed today, you still have the right to continue to appeal. You even have the right to forcefully dissolve the council. You still have plenty of time …”

”Irishman's rebellion? Hehe, forgive me for my bluntness, but with the strength of our British Empire, exterminating the rebellion is not a problem, and furthermore, the one who is responsible for exterminating the rebellion is the Governor, not you, the Prime Minister! ”

”Perhaps when the fires of the Irish rebellion have died down and the impeachment of you has not been completed, what is this called treason? How could I possibly affect your mobilization? ”

Speaking to this, Gladstone shook his head and sighed, ”In fact, I am very sad, very sad, because the cruel reality has proven me right again. If a person like you continues to be the prime minister, then there will only be more and more riots in the Empire!”

”Wake up, gentlemen! Ireland is in constant disarray, and the root cause is not because of the lack of military resources we put into it, it is not! ”

”We've been fighting Ireland for five or six hundred years. Are the forces we put in weak? From the Guardian Elder Ke Lunweier, if it wasn't for him already, the Irish people would have all been wiped out by us! ”

”I think everyone hasn't forgotten that Great Famine. During that disaster, how many people took pleasure in his misfortune? Seeing millions of Irishmen starve to death and millions of citizens leave their homes and emigrate to the North America, how many of you secretly rejoiced! ”

”Maybe at that time, you really thought that the empire could solve the Irish problem once and for all. The closest and oldest colony in Britain is finally going to merge and be completely digested by us!”

”But is that really the case? No! ”It's all wrong. From the time of the famine, all our national integration efforts that we have made over hundreds of years have been completely wasted. What has been reflected is our national hatred!”
