Reborn South Africa as a police officer

Chapter 2632 Shaking confidence

The so-called different ways do not conspire with each other. Although the French Workers International and the British Labor Party both use the "brand" of workers, one represents the British bourgeoisie, and the other is a subsidiary organization of the Communist International. Winston is bigger.

British hypocrisy is clearly reflected at this time.

It doesn't matter what position you stand or not, to the British Empire.

Many people describe it as having no bottom line, and would use the phrase to sell their soul to the devil.

The British Empire is the devil itself.

So as long as the banner of national interests is under the banner, there is nothing the British dare not do.

Queen Elizabeth can issue privateer licences.

Neville can legally sell Sudeten for a generation of peace.

He has done a lot of things against the decisions of his ancestors, and when he comes to Attlee, he will naturally have no obstacles in cooperating with the French Workers International.

Felix Gouin didn't think so.

Felix Gouin was born as a lawyer, participated in the First World War, served as a mayor, and was a member of the House of Representatives before the outbreak of World War II. He is a veteran political veteran. Determined his attitude towards Britain.

Felix Gu'an is also very distressed recently. The source of his troubles is not de Gaulle or Renard, but a charity organization from southern Africa, which makes Felix Gu'an unable to figure it out anyway.

As a veteran in the political arena, Felix Guin is very familiar with charitable organizations. Regardless of the word charity in their names, these organizations usually do things that have little to do with charity.

The same is true for charitable organizations in southern Africa. The famous Rhodes Foundation invests a lot in France every year. Nyasaland University offers dozens of places for admission. Now there are a group of people in France criticizing the current situation all day long. It's not pleasing to the eye anywhere in France, so what would happen if this matter were placed in southern Africa? Most of these people have this background.

In Felix Gu'an's impression, charities are mostly like this.

What Felix Gouin couldn't understand was the Phyllis Foundation.

Unlike the Rhodes Foundation, which gives you a candy and you have to test whether it is poisoned, what the Phyllis Foundation does in France is very different from the charity in Felix Gouin's impression.

As early as before the outbreak of World War II, the Phyllis Foundation carried out frequent activities in France. At that time, the Phyllis Foundation looked different from other charities.

In an era when most charities wanted to do something good and wanted to publicize it, the Phyllis Foundation was very low-key. Many French people didn’t even know that the Phyllis Foundation had a branch in France, let alone that Fei What is the daily life of the Liz Foundation.

It was through the Workers International that Felix Gouin learned about the daily life of the Phyllis Foundation, and then Felix Gouin fell in love with it.

The Rhodes Fund’s daily operations around the world usually have little to do with groups in need of charitable assistance. Most of the funds donated by philanthropists are used to buy the media, train interest spokesmen, and really use it for the poor. The proportion is very small, and even if there is, it is mostly for show.

The main service target of the Phyllis Foundation is the French veterans of the First World War.

This is not an invitation to fame and fortune, people have a reason, and it is very convincing.

The reason why the Phyllis Foundation pays attention to the group of veterans is that Roque served as the commander-in-chief of the Expeditionary Force in World War I and belonged to the high-level Allied forces. In theory, the French veterans are also Roque's subordinates.

Phyllis and Rock are husband and wife.

In this way, it is logical for the Phyllis Foundation to pay attention to the group of veterans, and the French government is only grateful for this behavior.

Don't think that politicians are all stupid. They are very smart, at least smarter than most people. Most of the time, they are wary of things like charity funds, and they love and hate them.

What I love is the money of charitable funds, because most of the campaign funds of politicians come from the "donations" of foundations.

The reason for hate is also money.

Because the Foundation never bets everything on one person.

Like the United Kingdom and the United States, the group of French veterans is also an embarrassing scar for the French government. Like the United Kingdom and the United States, France suffered huge losses in World War I. After the war, the group of veterans was not properly resettled.

The behavior of the Phyllis Foundation has made up for the neglect of the French government to a certain extent and reduced the burden on the French government.

Under this premise, even if the purpose of the Phyllis Foundation is not pure, the French government also pinches its nose and recognizes it.

Don't admit it.

When the French government noticed the behavior of the Phyllis Fund, the Phyllis Fund had already had a huge impact on the group of French veterans.

At this time, if the French government restricts the activities of the Phyllis Fund in France.

That doesn't require the efforts of the Phyllis Foundation at all. The ability of French veterans to make trouble is no worse than that of American veterans.

After the last world war, the Phyllis Foundation focused on veterans.

Now replaced by workers.

It is also advancing with the times.

When de Gaulle recruited the Free French Army in North Africa, he promised to give the members of the Free French Army normal French rights after the war.

This commitment is beyond the capabilities of the Phyllis Foundation. Since the appeal has changed, the groups served by the Phyllis Foundation have also changed.

During the fall of France, workers played a very important role. They often organized strikes and fought for their rights.

Interestingly, after the Germans took over France, the number of strikes by French workers decreased significantly.

This is not because the German management style is stricter, but because the Germans are more able to meet the demands of French workers.

It's amazing, the Germans treat French workers better than the French government, and I don't know who slapped them in the face.

There is of course a reason for this.

After Germany took over France, many French private companies were directly expropriated, and the private companies became public in an instant. Without the exploitation of factory owners, the Germans got more profits, and the workers got more benefits. Everyone is happy.

After the liberation of France, the situation changed a lot. The Germans retreated, and the former factory management was still arguing with the current French provisional government, so the workers were out of luck.

The attitude of the French provisional government is clear.

Since the factories confiscated by Germany served the Germans during the war, the situation now is a bit complicated. Should they be returned to the previous factory owners, or should they continue to be managed by the state as they were during the German occupation?

This hardly needs to be considered, but everyone who is qualified to participate in this matter is inclined to continue to maintain it. The positions of the three levels of parliament in France have never been so consistent. Even Renard, who has the largest assets, has not clearly expressed his opposition.

Leonard has no right to object.

Before the Franco-German war broke out, Renard began to move the factory from France to North Africa. Therefore, during the Franco-German war, Renard's assets not only did not lose, but further increased. Now the richest man in France deserves his name.

We are all the richest man, and the asset value is just a number to Leonard. Now Leonard is pursuing something other than wealth.

Although the provisional government decided to maintain the status quo, after all, the name was not justified. Not all factory owners adopted an attitude of cooperating with the Germans, and some were arrested because of their opposition, and even left for other countries.

Now the main controversy is concentrated in this part.

The ownership of the factory has not been resolved, so naturally there is no way to start work.

The workers’ families have no money, and if they don’t work for a day, they will have no income. The Workers’ International, which represents the interests of workers, should come forward to resolve this matter.

The Workers International wants to solve the problem, but it has no ability. The key is that it has no money and no resources.

The Phyllis Foundation once again took the initiative to actively solve the job problems of unemployed workers, and at the same time send warmth to all French poor groups. This greatly affected the influence of the Workers International and the bottom-level people in France.

As I said before, the French are very realistic, and they will help whoever benefits them.

The Workers' International speaks nicely every day, the pie is big and round, and the future is infinitely bright, but there are no practical benefits at all, and the pie you paint cannot fill your stomach.

The jobs offered by the Phyllis Foundation are real, and they get paid for working on a daily basis. Although the money is not much, it can still be used to support the family.

A more serious problem is that the Phyllis Foundation's service focus is not only on workers, but also on all vulnerable groups in France.

As the name suggests, the Workers International is an organization that represents the interests of workers and has nothing to do with other vulnerable groups.

For example, French farmers, they are within the scope of the Workers' International's service goals.

The Phyllis Foundation not only serves workers, but also includes farmers in France.

Don't think that France is an industrial country, so there are no farmers in its territory. In all countries, agriculture is the basis of stability and cannot be ignored.

France's agricultural scale is also very large, represented by champagne. At least in this field, the influence of the Workers' International is not even as good as that of the Phyllis Foundation.

Regardless of whether the purpose of the foundation is pure or not, the supporters behind it must be rich people, and the poor are unable to spend money to help others.

Therefore, the group represented by the foundation is highly overlapped with the group capable of consuming champagne.

Regardless of southern Africa, newspapers and magazines claim that Cape wine is comparable to French champagne in terms of quality and value.

In reality, rich people in southern Africa still prefer champagne when they consume. Wine is for making money, not for consumption.

During the war, the French economy was severely affected, and champagne sales also had problems.

It's not that it can't be sold, but that there is no champagne to sell at all, because all the champagne is bought by the Germans at a very low price.

Speaking of "buying", for the vineyard owners in the Champagne area, it is almost like grabbing.

The key point is that no one has dared to resist. When the war broke out, the factory owners fled abroad. When the war is over, when will they come back.

All the assets of the vineyard owner are on the ground, and they cannot be moved or moved away. There is no way to escape, and they can only wait for death.

Therefore, the interests of the people at the bottom are the most consistent with the interests of the country. Only when the country is strong can the people at the bottom live better. The rich can run away in case of war, and the poor have no funds to run away.

It should be said that the provisional government also wants to help the vineyard owners in the Champagne region solve the champagne sales problem.

However, the world war has been fought for six years, and the assets of the rich people all over the world have shrunk significantly——

No, the assets of the wealthy in southern Africa have not only not shrunk, but have increased further.

The interim government was unable to sell champagne to southern Africa, because the federal government of southern Africa imposed restrictions on the import of champagne in order to protect the interests of the southern African wine industry.

The Phyllis Foundation has the ability. They are not imported, but donated to the Phyllis Foundation in the name of donation. Although the federal government knows it is a routine, it is legal and has no reason to stop it, nor does it want to stop it.

As for the reason for not wanting——

The federal government's restriction of champagne imports is a request of the wine industry in southern Africa. The federal government complies with public opinion and everyone is happy.

Practitioners in the wine industry made a request, and the Federal Parliament passed a vote, and the procedure was legal.

The problem is that those who vote on a show of hands in the federal parliament at all levels overlap with those who can afford to drink champagne.

Therefore, the champagne donated to the Phyllis Foundation by French wine merchants is very popular in southern Africa.

After drinking the free champagne, it is reasonable to donate some money back to the foundation. After all, it is charity, what is taken from the people and used by the people.

As for how much to donate, it depends on the mood.

The mood here is highly consistent with the production of French champagne.

The workers and the farmers have been dealt with. This is not the end. The staff of the Phyllis Foundation will continue to work hard and expand the service targets to all vulnerable groups in France.

They are all ordinary people. Who is safe from disasters? No matter how old-fashioned colonialism is in France, there are still poor people, homeless people, widows, widows and loneliness in the country. These are vulnerable groups that are not paid attention to by the French government.

You can't blame the French politicians for their snobbery. Politicians serve votes. Groups who are not qualified to provide votes are naturally not the target of politicians. It is normal to be ignored.

The Phyllis Foundation does not pay for votes, and it actually does not cost much. It provides a meal for those who have no money to eat every day. It does not need to be rich, as long as it is not hungry.

Providing a bed for a homeless person when it snows in winter, rather than a floor, is enough to make many people in deep trouble feel grateful.

If you give me another coat, even if it is not new, as long as it can protect you from the wind and rain, the level of gratitude will immediately increase to the height of the reborn parents. Only after experiencing it will you know how precious the light in the predicament is.

This is what the Phyllis Foundation does. The cost of this matter is actually very low. Many staff members don't even need a salary, and they work entirely as volunteers.

But for the recipients, the warmth they reap is real. Compared with the big pie drawn by the Workers International, it is heaven and earth.

When Paris was first liberated, Felix Gouin was still full of confidence and was absolutely sure of seizing the leadership of France.

Now that confidence has been increasingly shaken.
