Vol 5 Chapter 158: Robber became a hero

Soon, everyone present confirmed the laying off of Robin Leigh Pemberton, and the governor of the central bank had not even arrived, he was under great pressure and became sick.
As a result, for Norman Lamont, it is inevitable that there will be a feeling of sadness.
From an objective point of view, he did not feel that in the position of Pemberton, who would do better, and, at that time, he considered whether to withdraw from the exchange rate mechanism countless times, and he personally went to the Admiralty Building to solicit After Major’s opinion.
But the world has always spoken with fists with results, and some people have to pay the price for huge losses.
For Major, this is naturally a very good start. With Robin Leigh Pemberton, the central banker, guilt can help him attract a large part of his opponent's firepower in a short time.
"President of the New Bank of England, do you have any suggestions?"
Looking at the House of Representatives with ghosts, Major threw a huge pie. The governor of the New Bank of England is enough for these to earn a grab for a while, if that doesn't work... Thinking about it, Major glanced at Lamont.
As Major expected, as soon as the demand for the successor to the post of Governor of the Bank of England was thrown out, the eyes of the members of Parliament and ministers sitting there were like hyenas seeing rotten flesh.
"I propose Mr. Edward George, the current vice president, as he has extensive knowledge in finance and economics. I believe that he must be the most suitable heir."
"Your Excellency David, don't you think such a proposal is ridiculous. When international speculators attacked the pound, our Mr. George still had time to brag with reporters. God, he is the second in command of the Bank of England. He didn't work in the office at that time. Do you think he is really suitable?"
"Shavin. Are you deliberately finding fault? In that case, he certainly needs to stabilize the market sentiment and calm the people's panic. Is it wrong to talk to reporters?"
"But he didn't solve the problem. In fact, the depreciation of the pound is more conducive to economic recovery, doesn't it?"
The words of the Minister of Industry and Trade caused the two ministers who were arguing to shut their mouths. This is the root cause of the unanimous acquiescence of everyone to the Ministry of Finance and the Central Bank. If they refuted, wouldn't it be equivalent to slapping Major.
"I think Mr. Pound Brook is more suitable for this position than Mr. George. He had anticipated today's result before the incident happened. Could there be more proof of his economic and financial ability than this?"
"But he was just a supervisor before, which didn't meet the requirements."
"So what. It is obvious that Mr. Brook is capable of the position of Governor of the Bank of England. Moreover, the people also believe in him. I think you all know how he is judged outside."
"I object. Although Mr. Brooke is very capable, the position of central bank governor is not for academic research and analysis. I very much doubt whether he can hold such an important position."
"..."
Seeing a bunch of councillors and ministers scrambling for the bait thrown out for him, Major's mood was quite relaxed and happy.
At least, these guys can't take care of it now and hold the blame to the end. It would be great if the position of Bank of England could be exchanged for some balance.
"Mr. Lamont. Do you have any suggestions?"
Lamont?
Who is Lamont
Members of the House of Representatives and ministers looked at Norman Lamont, who was regarded as air. It was only then that they remembered that the post of central bank governor is no more suitable for speaking than Lamont.
Who to choose?
Being stared at by a pair of eyes, Lamont thought of the previous conversation with Shen Jiannan, and a faint ridicule arose in his heart. All the plans and premeditations of this gang of idiots have long been calculated by others, so they are arguing endlessly here.
"I agree with Laura's proposal. Although, I don't want to admit that I made a serious mistake in staying in the EC and the exchange rate mechanism.
But facts have proved that Mr. Pound Brook's previous suggestion is indeed the most correct. If we accepted this suggestion at that time, perhaps, our losses would be minimized. "
"..."
God!
Did I hear it wrong.
A group of people looked at Lamont blankly as if they were stupid. In the British political arena, admitting their mistakes is something that has never happened before. Anyone, even if they know that they have made a mistake, will surely carry it to the end.
Frankly lenient?
NO.
If you admit your mistakes, there will only be one result, and that is to resign.
But if you don’t admit it, you may continue to keep your position.
But now, Lamont actually admitted that he made a serious mistake in the exchange rate mechanism.
This guy is not going crazy, right!
Even John Major was surprised by Lamont's reaction, although he had considered making him Lamont voluntarily resign to bear the anger of the people, and he also sought out a new chancellor.
Norman, I will remember these things you did for me.
Casting a grateful look at Norman Lamont, John Major used a small gesture to attract everyone's attention.
"I also agree with His Excellency Lamont’s proposal. No one knows better than him who can assume the post of central bank governor. The ability of Mr. Pound Brook is obvious to all. He has played a role in our negotiations with Capital One. An important role. If there are no questions raised by him, I think we might pay a higher price."
"......"
9.21st.
The media issued a public statement: Bank of England Governor Robin Leigh Pemberton was unwell due to tremendous pressure in recent months. According to the doctor's advice, he has stopped all work and went abroad to recuperate.
The Governor of the New Bank of England will have Mr. Pound Brook, Special Advisor to the Ministry of Finance.
"Your Excellency Lamont. Is the appointment of the New Bank of England by the Treasury Department a means for you to shirk responsibility?"
"Your Excellency Lamont. There are rumors that the Ministry of Finance appointed the new central bank governor because some people were evading responsibility. What do you think of this?
"......"
I have to say that the reporters of some British media are really bold enough. Following the spread of the Bank of England’s public news, Norman Lamont was directly blocked at the entrance of the Chancellor’s residence and forced to accept various irritating cross-examinations.
If it were put in normal times, Lamont would scream at these reporters, but now, there was a kind of relaxation in his heart that he had never had before.
"I admit. I made a serious mistake in that matter not long ago, and as a result, the Bank of England caused huge losses."
"But I do not accept some slander and slander. I am willing to take all the responsibilities and be responsible for it. Soon, I will submit my resignation to Prime Minister Major."
"..."
The reporters were dumbfounded.
Is this still Norman Lamont?
Would he admit that he made a mistake?
This politician is fake.
Lamont didn't care about this at all, anyway, there are more lucrative jobs waiting for him.
"As for the appointment of Mr. Pound Brooke to the post of Governor of the Bank of England, he is well known for his outstanding ability. Prior to this, Mr. Brooke pointed out the mistakes made by the Central Bank and the Ministry of Finance, but we did not take it seriously. "
"Facts have proved. He has a very unique vision in economics and finance. I can't think of a better candidate for the Bank of England position than him."
"......"
.......
"Because of our government's stupidity, Shen snatched more than four billion dollars from the Bank of England, which only proves that he is far more visionary than the stupid cabinet."
"Shen. He is like Robin Hood, smashing those idiots who hold the power but corpse the vegetarian food."
"From an objective fact, our government deceived us at the last moment, but Shen has been telling us that the pound is about to depreciate. I don't want to say that the Lamont cost me at least 30,000 pounds."
"God, he is a god-like existence. I will use him as my goal in this life."
"I don't think there is anything wrong with this. As Mr. Kelly said, if we are sick, we should receive treatment and find the cause of the disease instead of choosing physical immunity. If the Ministry of Finance could accept Pound in the first place. Mr. Brook's proposal, I believe it will not turn into a crisis at all."
"It was he who made us realize the mistake, and we should thank him."
"..."
With Lamont's speech in front of the media, what happened half a month ago was pushed to a climax again.
At that time, the mainstream media and public opinion criticized the viciousness of the international speculators order, but now, the wind has been led off track under the unhealthy wind.
Some people think that since the market is open, no matter how much money Shen Jiannan makes from the Bank of England~EbookFREE.me~, it is also his ability. Some people think that Shen Jiannan is right. The problem is basically because of the cabinet. The government’s stupidity proved that he did help the United Kingdom. During the week when the pound depreciated, orders from export processing companies were flooding from all over the world, and many people who lost their jobs were able to return to their jobs.
Some people also said that Shen Jiannan publicly regarded Shen Jiannan as an idol, and even hoped that he could write an autobiography.
Of course, when someone supports it, others oppose it.
The criticism of the British media has not diminished. Isn’t Shen Jiannan’s gains a loss to the United Kingdom? Didn’t he make the British taxpayers and every British man, woman, and child pay 50 pounds more
But the British media's efforts to make Shen Jiannan feel guilty for his gains did not succeed, and he even referred to the British media as Black Wednesday as a bright day.
"I believe there must be a negative impact, but...but it will not be considered for me. If I back down out of moral conscience, I am not a successful speculator."
"Nor will I regret the profit from the devaluation of the pound. As happened, the devaluation of the pound proved to be beneficial."
"I admit that this is a loss for the United Kingdom. In this case, it is true because I know who the other party is. In the transaction, some people gain and some lose.
But under normal circumstances, you don't know who the other party is, and you don't know if he is a loss or a profit. Obviously the other party is the Bank of England. I never feel guilty.
I think you should know that even if I don't trade, other people will.
In fact, most of the profits I earn will be invested in the UK again. I think that when other traders make profits, they will only leave with these profits. "
