The third more

The Soviet Propaganda Department learned the best when it came to smearing others, and at Yanayev's behest, the newspapers controlled by the Soviet propaganda department soon carried out a lot of coverage of the possible British referendum. For a time, John Major appeared on the front pages of the Moscow Daily more often than any other Soviet leader.

But instead of persuading them to stay in the EU, Soviet propaganda reported on the affair in a terrified tone, describing Britain's departure from the EU as a terrible event, even worse than the Nazis of the time.

In an interview with foreign journalists, Yanayev commented, "Britain's departure from the European Union will be a great blow to the economy of the Soviet Union, and may even lead to the rise of a European power, so we call for efforts to keep Britain within the framework of the European Union." Otherwise, the global financial markets may be shaken by then. Of course, there may be an impact on my assets in the UK, but I don't think there will be any loss. ”

The reporter was stunned for a moment, and then thought he could dig up a big news and hurriedly asked, "General Secretary Yanayev also has assets in the UK?" ”

Yanayev nodded and said humorously, "Of course, I have a fixed 0 asset in the UK. ”

This witty and humorous interview was widely circulated on the British mainland, and many people had a good impression of Yanayev's humor, but they remembered the previous sentence of the leader of the great power, that Britain would likely regain its financial and monetary hegemony after leaving the European Union. This is a glorious dream for the people of England and Wales, who dream of independence from the European Union.

However, Scotland and Northern Ireland have strongly resisted leaving the EU, believing that only under the framework of the EU will be more conducive to the development of the two local economies, and once they leave the EU, Scotland will lose even the right to call for independence, which is unbearable for them.

At this time, Scotland, instigated by the KGB forces, began an anti-secession campaign, and Salmond even warned the London government that if a referendum was held, then Scotland would also hold a referendum, and swore that what they said was true, and Prime Minister Major had better not let the United Kingdom lose some part of it.

Under the propaganda of the Soviet Union, almost the eyes of the world were focused on the upcoming referendum, and John Major, who wanted to use this to blackmail the European Union, found that there was no way out.

Either a referendum is held, or a resignation is announced. This is the terrible situation that John Major is currently facing, and even so, the problems faced by John Major are still difficult to solve.

"Sometimes the best way to escape a problem is to drink your sorrows, Prime Minister John Major, how many bottles of wine have you ever drunk?" Sir Terrance, who visited John Major, picked up the empty bottles rolling on the floor and placed him back on the table, which was already filled with empty bottles and a drunken Prime Minister Major.

He sighed, sat down beside him, and said earnestly, "Prime Minister, look at your current appearance, avoiding problems is not the only way to solve the problem, I hope you can make a decision as soon as possible, after all, the entire cabinet depends on your decision." ”

Prime Minister Major glared at Sir Terrance with red eyes, pointed his finger at him, and his emotions were a little out of control, "! You instigated me to instigate a farce of an independence referendum, and now you are pretending to make me a decision as soon as possible? I've never seen a brazen guy like you. Don't forget that you proposed this farce. ”

Sir Terrance replied very calmly, "But the Prime Minister decided to do it, didn't he?" It shows that you also support this action, even if you don't say it in your heart, you have been unhappy with the group of people in the EU for a long time, right? ”

"But not in that way, look at what a terrible situation we're facing right now." Prime Minister Major roared.

"Enough, John Major, now is not the time for you to spill. Do you really think there is much benefit in continuing to remain within the framework of the EU? Germany, France, at least 20 percent of their annual profits from the EU are contributed by us. But what did Britain gain? Nothing. The Americans used us to control the EU, and now they are going back and saying that if the economy is not good, they will not give us blood transfusions, and they want us to subsidize the EU ourselves? It's a dream! ”

For the first time, the Permanent Undersecretary revealed himself to John Major as he was, "It can be said that our stay in the EU is a complete failure, and we must not forget what the tradition of the British Empire is." It is to keep Europe in strategic balance, not to have a certain strong guy, or not to have a united, strong Europe. Now the EU is moving towards this step. We should not be puppets of others, nor should we be puppets of Americans. ”

After listening to Sir Terrance's answer, Prime Minister Major knew why he was so supportive of his referendum campaign, and it turned out that everything was prepared for his ulterior purposes.

"Prime Minister Major, we have no way back now, do you want to resign and dump the pot on the next prime minister? I don't think the other side is stupid, he can't pay for what you did, it's time to make a decision, let the EU know that our coercion is not just a threat, it's a fact. Terrance further threatened British Prime Minister John Major to let him know that there was no way back for the London government in such a situation.

Major didn't speak, he couldn't get up the energy to argue with Terrance anymore in the face of such a terrible situation, and his only thought was to end the farce as soon as possible.

Major waved his hand and muttered, "Do it yourself, Sir Terrance." You just think that after leaving the European Union, we will gain economic independence, but you don't see one thing clearly. ”

"What's the matter?" Terrance asked, feigned ease.

"That's the voters of the United Kingdom, don't forget that this country is not our monopoly on all the rights, have you considered the various social problems caused by the referendum at that time?"

John Major, whose eyes were red, patted him on the shoulder, and approached the overwhelmed Sir Terrence with a drunken look, his eyes kept staring at the other party, "If it is serious, it may even cause the division of Britain, and then you are willing to become a person in the history of Great Britain?"
