Chapter 54 Yes, Prime Minister

Facing the microphones and cameras surrounding him, the Prime Minister of the Great Empire, Mr. Jim Harker felt that his face was frozen with laughter. He was so nervous that he almost forgot the reporter's question. He lowered his head slightly and glanced at the cheat sheet in his hand. I remembered what this press reception was about.

"As for the corpse of the monster, I only learned about it from TV...MI6 in the morning. I have to say that it is very shocking. I can't believe that a monster like this can actually appear in this country. It should go to New York. After all, that is the center of the universe... Sorry, it was just a joke (this was what the entire cabinet was saying).

In short, after intense discussions with cabinet members, we finally reached an agreement. There is no doubt that the landing of the monster is a violation of Great Britain's sovereignty and an unprecedented disaster."

"But, Mr. Prime Minister, that's just a corpse."

"Yes, but a corpse does not change its nature. It broke through the blockade of the British Royal Navy. This was something that neither Napoleon nor Hitler could do. Obviously, it is the first, but it is absolutely impossible to be the first one. Finally, look across the Atlantic, how many times they have been attacked by monsters.

Therefore, the cabinet discussed and decided that in order to deal with monster disasters that have occurred now and may occur in the future, the government will establish a monster disaster management committee and add a monster affairs minister to the cabinet to have full authority to deal with such incidents.

According to the system, when the government establishes a new department, it needs to submit a bill to the parliament for approval. Now we are racing against time to write the details of the bill and strive to get it passed by the parliament in the shortest possible time. "Jim Hacker looked confident.

"But, Mr Prime Minister, as Parliament is currently in recess, will you therefore break with convention and call an emergency special session?"

The reporter was not polite and asked another very practical question. The smile on Jim Harker's face froze. This question was not prepared, but at this point, he had to bite the bullet and answer: "According to convention , during the recess of Parliament, if the cabinet believes that there are really important and urgent matters that require parliament to vote, this can be done.

But for now, just for now, the monster thing is of course important, but the emergency may not seem that urgent. Of course, if it is alive, it will be important and urgent, but now it is just a corpse, and it may be It doesn't matter if it's left there for a day or two...ten days and a half. "

"But so far, hundreds of people have fainted and been admitted to the hospital because they couldn't stand the stench emanating from the monster. Things have happened that threaten the lives of residents. Isn't the government still dealing with it?"

"Of course, of course, of course the government has to deal with it." Jim Hacker gave an affirmative answer first, and then changed the subject: "But you must know that the odor is a secondary disaster caused by the monster, not knocking down the building. Destroying cities... it's more like environmental pollution.

So you see, dealing with monsters and protecting the safety of residents are actually two different things. In fact, the National Emergency Secretariat has coordinated and allocated 100 million masks to help local residents resist the stench. The government will do its best to help them, just like It was the same as the government's solution to the London smog incident in 1952.

But to deal with the monsters and completely solve this kind of problem, we still have to pass the bill in the parliament. By that time, everything will be fine. In the country, the parliament is the place to solve all problems. If you are really concerned about this issue, To solve this problem, please make your voice heard and support the passage of the cabinet bill in parliament. "

"Mr. Prime Minister, have you ever considered asking the Victory Team to solve the problem."

"No, this is the internal affairs of the Great Empire. We don't need any other forces to intervene. We can handle this matter."

"You mean, you won't support the adoption of the TPC (United World Peace Convention) at the United Nations General Assembly?"

"Yes, I think it is an infringement of the country's defense autonomy, just as unacceptable as the EU wanting us to abolish the pound and accept the euro."

"Mr. Prime Minister, have you ever considered setting up a similar specialized team to deal with monster incidents based on the Victory Team?"

"As I said, we have planned to set up a committee and appoint a Minister of Monster Affairs. You can ask him, or maybe her, the relevant questions after the Minister of Monster Affairs takes office. Sorry, that's all for today's questions... "

In the cafeteria, Don, Natasha, Hill, and Dr. Banner sat together. After watching the entire interview, they looked at each other, not knowing what to comment.

"Thank God, we don't need to deal with this monster. Otherwise, all these bureaucracy and formalities would have annoyed us to death." Tang said with lingering fear.

"This is just the tip of the iceberg." Hill broke the news: "My British friends told me that their cabinet debated this issue all day long. The debate was not about how to deal with the monster, but who should deal with the monster.

The Prime Minister believes that the landing of the monster is equivalent to a military invasion and is a very serious national defense and security incident that should be handled by the Minister of Defense by ordering the army.

But the Minister of Defense believes that since the monster is already a corpse, it is an environmental pollution problem caused by biological waste and should be dealt with by the Minister of Environment.

The Minister of the Environment believes that if it is just a larger creature carcass, it can be handed over to the local government and treated with reference to the disposal method of whale carcasses.

However, the local government made it clear that it did not have the ability and asked the British government to solve the problem.

So the honorable Mr. Jim Hacker went around and found the file still lying on his desk.He had no choice but to force the Minister of Defense to order the army to intervene to deal with the monster's body. "

Banner heard this and said: "If the army intervenes, shouldn't the problem be solved quickly?"

Hill said: "No, this just brings new problems. The Army believes that the monsters came from the sea, and the Navy does not patrol the coastline well, so its merits should be discounted. But the Royal Navy believes that no matter how the monsters come, since It's already ashore and should be dealt with by the Army. The Royal Air Force said it's none of their business. Don't expect them to send out planes to bomb a dead monster.

After arguing and arguing, there was still no result. They were all afraid that they had started this way. In the future, they would have to hit the headrest to fight monsters. The American Navy learned from the past, so they finally threw the issue back.

During this period, the Prime Minister, after being reminded by his staff, also figured out that the problem of monsters should not just be a headache for the cabinet, so he proposed to leave it to the parliament to solve. This decision was unanimously approved by the cabinet. "

Tang Ruo said thoughtfully: "For the first time, I feel that the work we do does not seem to be a time bomb that everyone around the world is scrambling to push out."

Natasha nodded and said, "I have an ominous feeling that this job will eventually fall on the victory team."
