Chapter 226 Local Reform (Part 1)
ps: School is back! Rancher cries for tickets and subscriptions
Because the people who govern the place are the own people of each county, this will cause the central authority to be weak, and the counties have no fear of London.
So, the decrees issued by the central governnt to the local governnts are basically those that are beneficial or harmless to them, and various local committees will implent them.
And if those decrees harm their interests, or are not conducive to the counties, they will choose not to implent them, or make superficial efforts.
At this ti, the central governnt will send people to do the work to persuade them. If they really refuse to implent, the central governnt will generally not take any punishnt asures. At most, the chairman of each committee will be removed from his post and replaced.
However, as a community of interests, it cannot be achieved by dismissing the post, and it is still the sa if it is replaced by one person.
The specific example is the British bourgeois revolution.
Both the king and the parliant have local supporters. England is divided into two factions, and the local counties are divided into the parliantary party and the king's party.
Moreover, this has also ford an ethos of loving hotown.
That’s right, they, like the Chinese, love their hotown, praise their hotown, and despise people from other regions.
The developnt of this kind of atmosphere is not conducive to the unity of the country and causes the division of society.
So, in addition to the common law, all parts of England have their own laws, and they are different. For example, public smoking is legal here, but not elsewhere.
It has also affected the United States. Now the self-governnt of the states in the United States is to follow the example of the United Kingdom.
But Edward is really a person who likes power, eager to fully grasp power.
He is very uncomfortable with the situation that the local governnt is neither divorced from the central governnt nor controlled by the central governnt.
Moreover, he was speechless about the situation in which various regions in the United Kingdom want to split in the future. The British have no concept of China's great unity at all.
For this reason, Edward felt that sothing should be done, otherwise even if he occupied the colony in the future, he would not be able to fully integrate into the UK, and in the end it would be inevitable that he would not be able to get rid of the loss.
Thinking about it, it was hard to occupy the Aricas, emigrate, open up wasteland, and mine. I created a rich area by myself, but it broke away from my embrace and beca another country, and even demolished my own car.
The aggrievedness of the British! Forget it.
Thinking like this, on this day, he will no longer et with other people, but instead stay wholeheartedly in his study, and start to create a local system suitable for England.
All night, the candles in the study were replaced by Lucy one by one, and the drafts written by Edward also accumulated layer after layer,
Edward didn't feel very tired, but his head was a little groggy, as if he had been overused.
"Don't let anyone disturb while I'm sleeping!" Edward buried his face in the pillow, his voice hoarse.
"By the way, let know the chairman of the Privy Council, Faris Alexander, and say that I will hold an interim eting of the Privy Council at three o'clock in the afternoon, and let them sit down and get ready!"
Squinting his eyes, Edward looked at Lucy's protruding figure, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and said softly.
Afterwards, he closed his eyes and began to rest.
Soon, Your Excellency the Speaker of the Privy Council, who has been thinking about how to apply for the admission exam, received such a notice.
"What is His Majesty the King going to do? This is really an incomprehensible thing!" Faris looked out of the window, and he felt that His Majesty the King was thinking like a wild horse. Although he was a little more gentle than Henry VIII, he was still more Difficult to serve.
Soon, adhering to the king's intention, Faris summoned several other important Privy Council ministers.
The tall and tall forr Lord Keeper of the Seal Borman Randall, the forr Justice Earl Robert with a silver-white wavy wig, the forr Secretary of State Don Francis, and Kyle, who has been valued by the king in recent months Lance, together with Faris Alexander, the chairman of the Privy Council, these few people constitute the core of the Privy Council.
After the reform of the Privy Council, the Keeper of the Seals was rged into the Privy Council. In addition to performing the duties of the Keeper of the Privy Seals, he also handled matters related to the royal family.
The specific responsibility is the Official Position Managent Departnt.
The Secretary of State is also rged into the Privy Council, but his job is to replace the king to monitor the Privy Council and record the behavior and conversations of the ministers.
Specifically responsible for overseeing the Departnt of Managent, as well as communication with circuit courts.
The forr justice Earl Robert is in charge of legal and court affairs, and is the bridge between the court and the Privy Council.
Specifically responsible for the Ministry of Religion and the Ministry of Social Security.
And Kyle Lance is responsible for the Departnt of Agriculture and Business Administration.
As the Speaker of the Privy Council, Faris Alexander is in charge of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Finance, as well as the Ministry of Construction Engineering, the three central departnts.
There are nine central departnts, each of whom is in charge of a share. The Speaker of the Privy Council manages the most important foreign affairs and finances, plus the less important Ministry of Construction Engineering, which has sufficient leadership.
This is also the general appearance of the Privy Council in Edward's mind. Five people are enough, and they are getting along well.
As for the other Privy Council ministers, what should they do! It's not bad to be an idler, let's make up the number!
"Your Majesty—" Seeing the king coming in, the five people quickly stood up and bowed to salute, with respectful attitudes.
"Get up!" Edward looked at the five people and nodded slightly.
"I have called everyone here this ti to tell you about my performance to you in the past few months!"
As soon as they heard this, the five people quickly sat up, their faces were serious, and they looked at Edward's youthful face without blinking.
"I have also seen the performance of everyone in the past few months, and you have done a good job!"
Edward's words relieved the tense hearts of the few of them.
"However, so departnts in the central governnt are still wandering leisurely every day. I am not here for the elderly!"
As soon as Edward said this, the bodies of the five people all shook, and their heads were slightly lowered.
Just when they were about to say sothing, Edward showed a smile, but continued: "It's not your fault, after all, most departnts in the central governnt have nothing to do, so why not hang around?"
All of them breathed out slowly.
Seeing the expressions of approval on the faces of the five people, Edward nodded, his face becoming serious.
"Your Majesty, it's not that we don't want to do things. It's just that so people in the local area don't strictly implent the orders of our central governnt, even as if they didn't hear them, they still go their own way and don't put London in their eyes at all!"
As the chairman of the Privy Council, Faris rolled his eyes. He really deserved to be a bureaucrat for many years. He seed to understand sothing and imdiately began to cooperate and speak first.
"This is not only a contempt for London, it is also a contempt for Your Majesty!"
