2123 London in Chaos 4
After all, he is a top politician who is qualified to become the prime minister of the United Kingdom, and Gleisdo has very strict self-discipline, and partisan struggle is very important, but what method is used to fight is more important.
The real top-level politicians are not at all comparable to the kind of officials who are indiscriminate, they have a moral bottom line in their hearts, and they have a very strong sense of purpose.
No matter how powerful the political battle between Gladstone and Benjamin and the others is, they will not harm the interests of the empire, just like Gladstone rejected Benjamin's plan for four financial appropriations before, but when the Zhiyuan won consecutive victories, it proved the excellent performance of the ironclad ship with actual combat.
Benjamin's latest naval funding was passed by Gladstone without any discount, and all members of the Liberal Party were asked not to make any trouble.
This is a politician with principles and a bottom line, who will never be chaotic in the face of major rights and wrongs, and it is precisely because of this that they have won the trust of the queen.
Benjamin, Gladstone, and the deceased Earl of Derby, were all very influential prime ministers of Victorian Britain and the Queen's right-hand man.
Gladstone was well aware of the significance of today's event, and of course he was willing to see Benjamin's jokes, so it was in the Liberals' interest to have a mess at the convention.
But it doesn't matter if you look at the excitement, it doesn't work to create excitement directly, if the Liberal Party directly makes trouble for the event, this pattern will be a little lower.
More important is the attitude of the royal family, although the current British is a constitutional monarchy, and the specific power of the country is given to the prime minister, but do not forget that the royal family also has a big killer, that is, prestige.
This thing is terrible, the people love the queen, then the queen has a very strong influence on the people, the queen can not interfere in specific government affairs, but once the queen wants to interfere in something, then there is nothing that cannot be done.
"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 will agree to such a low-level thing? sober up......
Thinking about it carefully, this is really the case, several Liberal politicians sighed and shook their heads and stopped insisting, but their ruthlessness was hidden in their hearts, and they were probably waiting for the autumn to settle accounts.
"It's just a little unwilling, obviously our political enemies, but our people want to help them work, hey......"
Gladstone patted him on the shoulder, "Don't worry, today is not destined to be the day when Benjamin can show off his might, you guys are waiting for the eye-opener......"
Today's London is truly an eye-opener, with reporters from all over Europe filling the streets and alleys, recording everything in front of them with their cameras and pens in their hands.
"Chaotic, unprecedented chaos, I've lived in London for over a decade and this is the first time I've seen a civic gathering on this scale......"
"The closer you get to the venue, the denser the crowd becomes, including the path that the envoys must pass, which is already blocked by the flow of people, oh God, there is a conflict ahead......
"How many people are here today? 100,000, or 200,000? Far more than that, I'm afraid there are more than 300,000 people here today, it's incredible......"
"There are boiling and chaotic voices everywhere, and there is an endless stream of friction large and small, and today's London police are afraid that they will have to do a week's worth of work in a day......"
"Everyone underestimated the great charm of the Oriental Envoys, and the previous series of reports on the Oriental Chinese seemed to have been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people......"
"Can you tell me what you would most like to see? Sir, miss...... Can you give us an interview with this sweet little angel?"
Countless newspaper reporters were excitedly drilling through the crowd, recording everything in front of them, and at the same time randomly interviewing citizens who were not afraid of the heat.
"What are you looking at? Of course, it's to see the little emperor, I heard that the little emperor is only a teenager, and he can rule such a big empire, I must go and see ......"
"Führer, what I am most curious about is the Führer of the Chinese nationality, what does he look like, why he was able to defeat France and Tsarist Russia, I am so curious......
"Battleship, I'm going to see the battleship...... My dream is to be a naval officer, a magical warship like the Zhiyuan, I must go and see it, I really hope they can open the day, I want to board and touch it......"
"Damn, someone has a heat stroke...... Are there any doctors? Are there any doctors around? Don't interview, get out of the way......"
Amid the shouts, several panting and sweaty policemen rushed over and saw a woman in a long skirt lying on the ground, and a little boy crying next to her.
"God, why do you have to go out into the streets in this weather? Lift this lady up and take her to a sparsely populated place......
The police are really busy today, and they have completely lost their good temper in the past: "Don't you stay at home and have to come out to see the excitement? It's just a group of Chinese, what's there to see? Adding to the chaos, I dealt with four cases of heat stroke in the morning......
The citizens of London have their own pride, and they are not afraid of these policemen who feed themselves on taxpayers' taxes, and several gentlemen in crisp suits rebuked them at the time.
"Pay attention to your words, you are a public official who serves the people, your duty is to serve the citizens, what authority do you have to prohibit citizens from going out on the streets?"
"Yes, instead of improving your organizational and management skills, do you want to blame the people? Which police station are you from, I want to complain about you......"
"Yes, complain about him...... My wallet was stolen just now, and they won't help me find ......."
The police were also tired, and they retorted, "Complain, whatever you want, don't look at what time this is, how can I care about the little things of stealing, how many lives are waiting for me to save......
"Hundreds of thousands of people are crowded together, what do you let us do? We are also human!"
"Be careful, there were just three people in the water at Waterloo Bridge in front of you, and you will probably have to fall into the river if you are so congested......"
"Hey, how can you curse the citizens? It's so unusual, complain, you have to complain......"
The scene became more and more chaotic, and at first the cooperative relationship between the police and the people could be maintained, but when the number of people really approached 400,000 as Gladstone judged, the squeezing anger in people's hearts finally couldn't help it.
Quarrels take place on almost every street.
At this moment, suddenly there was an exclamation from afar: "Cavalry! The Royal Cavalry Battalion has been dispatched! The Praetorian Guards have come to maintain order......
Da Da Da ...... Horseshoes trampled on the stone pavement, sparks flew in all directions, and British cavalry in full costume streamed out of the Hyde Park barracks and headed for the most distressed neighborhoods.
