Chapter 291 Nord Noble Law

Marceau's words left Smith no longer a reason to refuse. He looked at Joseph who had not spoken. Smith nodded as saying that it would be the responsibility of Western Sahara in the Olympics.

"I will submit a detailed plan for the Olympic city in the near future, but I also hope that the government's 2 billion euros will be allocated as soon as possible."

If it were others, they would not dare to speak like this and speak directly to the Prime Minister of the Cabinet. However, Marceau is different. Western Sahara is almost autonomous at this time, and even Prime Minister Smith's speech does not have much influence.

Some people commented on the top ten female politicians in the world throughout the ages, including Wu Zetian, Catherine, and Queen of England, who are excluded, are only considered female politicians like Thatcher, so Marceau is also in the top ten. Even if the ranking is relatively low, it undoubtedly proves her strength.

The Governor of Western Sahara is a position that is more difficult to hold than the Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Nord, but Marceau has been rectifying it in an orderly manner over the years, which cannot but admire the politicians of the Kingdom of Nord.

Smith is undoubtedly the leader of the radical party, and most of the cabinet members are radical parties. There are still three years left before the 2000 election, and no one can guarantee whether the votes Marceau won this time can surpass Smith.

In the 1995 vote, due to age issues and the fact that the first Smith did a good job, he was successfully re-election with 36% of the votes. However, his reckless handling of some things has made many citizens dissatisfied. Even the radicals have reduced their support for him, and it has become unlikely to be re-election for three terms in his eyes.

Morris no longer had the intention to run for prime minister. He was thinking about the position of governor of Western Sahara after Masce left office, but in such important personnel arrangements, Masce should not give opportunities to them, such members of the radical party.

James now has a new title, which is the President of the House of Lords of the Nord Kingdom. Because he was the first Lord of the Nord Kingdom, the House of Lords of the Nord Kingdom became a noble MP and began to be worthy of his name. Joseph's control over the House of Lords was not as nervous as before. The House of Lords began to have some of his own power.

If Smith failed to re-election in 2000, he had two choices. If Joseph canonized him as Lord, he would have a chance to become a member of the House of Lords. If not, he could only compete for the House of Commons or retirement.

The House of Lords of the Kingdom of Nord (House of Lords) actually does not have many members now. James serves as Speaker, Kate, Charlie, Flander and Louis are all one of them. The others are two billionaires who have won the title of Lord for their economic meritorious service, Robert, President of the Royal Media Group and the current Minister of Commerce.

Smith was the first minister of the Ministry of Commerce. Logically speaking, he should have been canonized as a lord, but because of the position of prime minister, Joseph decided to give it to him after he stepped down. It can be said that if there were no big mistakes, the possibility of running for the next prime minister would be very high even if he failed.

The Speaker of the House of Commons is now Kate, but with the coming of the 2000 general election, the House system has officially begun, and the Nord royal family will completely relax their control over the two Houses.

This will not affect the rights of the Nord royal family. After all, the Nord royal family has a veto power. Whether it is the House of Lords or the House of Commons, as long as it feels infringing on its own interests, it can veto it. This is the fundamental reason why the Nord kingdom maintains the monarchy.

In June 1997, Prime Minister Smith applied to prepare for Olympic city projects through Governor Marceau, Western Sahara. Media from various countries went to Nord and Western Sahara to interview Marceau and Smith.

Smith has not been busy lately. He frequently visited the members of the Nord Kingdom House of Commons, hoping to convince them to continue to be re-elected for the third term, but only 20% of the people who really agreed to it were even less than 20%.

This is not because Smith began to prepare for the election. After all, there are still three years left before the election. Smith's purpose is to test how many possibilities he still has to be re-elected for the third term. If there is no possibility, then he needs to hurry up and prepare for some plans, and the result is obvious...

In mid-June 1997, when the interview media in various countries had not left, the cabinet requested a report to Joseph's desk. He hoped that the Nord Kingdom Intelligence Agency Moia would be responsible for the government rather than the royal family. Joseph angrily dismissed the proposal.

However, this time Smith seemed to have made up his mind. Not only did he do this himself, he even joined forces with more than a dozen heavyweight officials to reapply, the reason was that the government could not have its own intelligence department, and the Prime Minister also needed a supervisory authority and a subordinate who was able to cooperate.

The second application was not directly rejected as the last time. A week later, the order signed by Joseph returned to Smith's desk. Smith was happy because Joseph agreed to arrange the Moia under the management of the cabinet and allowed the Prime Minister to establish a cabinet guard with no more than 300 people.

The world is developing, and Joseph cannot always occupy all rights. As long as there is a veto, the army is in his own hands and the country will let the cabinet handle it.

Joseph also didn't want to be a deaf man without eyes or ears, so he set up a mig military intelligence agency in the army, which would replace the original moia and be responsible for Joseph.

Because Mig's responsibilities are much smaller than Moia, it is perfectly possible to be the director of the Guard Bureau Andy. Although Andy is much more busy because of this, he is still very happy to return to his old career.

The most important thing is that there is not so much management scope, and his abilities can be fully utilized in the Royal Military Intelligence Agency. For example, the original moia is completely beyond his abilities.

Smith received a crucial innovation for the cabinet. He completed what Prime Minister James did not do in his tenure as the Prime Minister. Apart from the most sensitive military power, the Nord Kingdom cabinet has already obtained most of the political rights in the country, and they can fully exert their abilities.

In 1996, the central fiscal revenue of the Nord Kingdom reached 80 billion euros, but this was still unsatisfactory for a large number of construction projects in 1997. Smith refused Marceau's investment in Olympic cities.

Smith also had one of the biggest wishes, which was to state Nord Royal Oil Company, but he understood that this was almost impossible, even if it was equivalent to coming out of Joseph's left hand and entering with his right hand.

Nord Royal Oil Company's annual dividends are in the treasury, but that is borrowing. From the beginning to now, the Nord Royal Cabinet has loaned more than one trillion euros from Joseph. Even if Joseph does not have a veto and only needs to collect debts from the cabinet, the cabinet will have to sell all the country to Joseph.

Of course, the Nord Kingdom itself is the private territory of the Ragna Royal Family, and the cabinet is just managing it on its behalf. However, the current situation is that not only did their managers slowly turn the company into their own, but instead made the company owe to the chairman more and more money.

In the company's terms, if Joseph's shares in this country were 70%, then as the years progressed, Joseph had repurchased the remaining 30% and kept owing the chairman a lot of wealth.

No country or media can accuse Joseph of squandering state assets at will. Not to mention that this is the Ragna royal family, the debt alone will leave them speechless.

Smith's home is in the most luxurious area in the Nord Kingdom. His neighbor is Lord James, but the people living there are usually Andy rather than James.

The lord cannot be inherited, and the only one that can be inherited is the royal title. The direct line can inherit the title of his father, rather than the direct line can only seek hereditary titles themselves. However, they were members of the House of Lords and the titles of the Lords when they were born.

The title of the Kingdom of Nord starts with the king, followed by the prince, grand duke, Count, and Lord, among which the Lord is a non-hereditary title, while the Earl and Grand Duke are hereditary titles that are not members of the direct royal family.

According to the aristocratic law promulgated by the Kingdom of Nord, the Lord and his immediate family enjoy education and medical care, and there is a right to supply materials and a 1 million euros of Nord's domestic entrepreneurial funds.

The hereditary title is different. The prince has a guarantee fund of 100 million euros, the grand duke has a 50 million yuan, and the earl has a 10 million yuan. These are all fixed and unchanged.

The Lord who has not obtained hereditary titles by his or her ability will lose the title of Lord, but retains the status of a royal family. In addition, the Nord Kingdom will also provide them with basic food supplies, school exemptions and other benefits.

Joseph did not want the Nord Kingdom to become another Qing Dynasty, so he had to be wary of the burden on the country that the future Nord royal family members brought to the country, which was the most appropriate method.

Although it will also put pressure on the country, the financial pressure is already very small, and Joseph believes that his family will never have too many playboys. In addition, with the birth status of the Nord Kingdom, it is estimated that the number of people can reach hundreds of years.

For hundreds of years, the Kingdom of Nord may not be there or not. Joseph does not need to think so far away. It is best to worry about future events.

The noble law made the Nord Kingdom cabinet very dissatisfied, but they had no right to deny any decision made by Joseph, so they could only express their dissatisfaction in other ways. For example, Smith would refuse the Lord's enthronement, but would Smith accept such a proposal?

That is the honor of the Kingdom of Nord, the supreme honor, and... Smith really has the courage to resist Joseph?
