Hello everyone, welcome to this episode!

In 2022, the United States and the United Kingdom began in various scandals, the British prime minister could not escape the crisis of stepping down, and the United States was "a hundred flowers blooming", constantly being accused by the people of the world.

First of all, British Prime Minister Johnson, when the whole country was blockaded, even secretly held a lavish party in Downing Street, which angered the British people who have been stoic, and now, the British people have united some officials to "force" Johnson to resign.

The United States and Britain have successively exposed scandals, Johnson cannot escape the crisis of stepping down, and the United States has been blamed by the people of the world

On January 10, an email from Johnson's chief private secretary, Reynolds, was exposed by the media, and the content of the email was very "exciting": Johnson organized dozens of people to come to the party when the country was locked down. You know, under the panic of the epidemic, the British people strictly abide by the rules, they can even only hug their children through the plastic sheet, or stand outside the window to visit their seriously ill family members, even if their families and friends are sick or about to die of the new crown virus.

What they didn't expect was that their prime minister was drinking and having fun at the party, which some people thought was an offense to the people and an irony. In the face of overwhelming accusations, Johnson at first refused to disclose whether he attended the cocktail party, but the whole country turned its attention to him, he could no longer avoid it, and finally admitted to attending the party and apologized for it. However, it is too late to apologize, it is clear that the people do not want an apology, but Johnson's downfall, the latest poll shows that more than 60% of the British people surveyed believe that Johnson should resign, and this is not only that, now the public, the media and officials seem to be on the opposite side of Johnson.

It is reported that the British opposition MPs have lined up to ask Johnson to resign, or ask the Conservative MPs to force him to "get out". Agence France-Presse reported that even newspapers that normally support Johnson and the Conservative Party are condemning him. Now Johnson must face national anger and take responsibility for his actions. Some media said that for Johnson, this is the latest and possibly the most dangerous revelation, and the media also revealed that Johnson is also facing a series of scandals, such as the expensive interior decoration of his Downing Street apartment.

In fact, in recent months, Johnson's leadership credentials have been severely damaged by controversy and mistakes. According to statistics, since October 26 last year, he has encountered at least 14 challenges, which can be described as a "thrilling" all the way to 2022, so can this "party door" be safely passed? Objectively speaking, it is difficult to say whether Johnson can keep the prime minister's throne this time, because the British people are almost passionate and very angry, and the government is almost a "scolding", the opposition party calls for Johnson to resign, and some members of the ruling Conservative Party even abandoned their colleagues with Johnson and began to prepare for a vote of no confidence.

You know, once the vote is passed, Johnson will really have to say goodbye to the prime minister's throne. The Financial Times pointedly pointed out that Johnson is facing a intensifying "defection" within the party. It can only be said that the eyes of the masses are shining, and the anger of the crowd is difficult to offend, if the people really do not intend to let Johnson go this time, and the officials are going to start the "great reckoning", then the British prime minister is indeed "more fierce and less lucky" this time. On this side, the British prime minister is deeply in the crisis of stepping down, and on the other hand, the situation in the United States is also "mud bodhisattva crossing the river".

Let's start with the first scandal in the United States, according to the Wall Street Journal, Fed Vice Chairman Richard said he would resign from the Fed on January 14. The reason why this prominent senior American official resigned was that he did not leave the word "scandal", this time it was a transaction scandal. Shortly before Richard announced his resignation, there were media questions about his stock trading in February 2020, when the new crown epidemic had just broken out, the global economy was facing shocks, the Fed considered a rescue measure, Powell announced the Fed's bailout measures, Richard bought a stock fund, according to media reports, in fact, he just sold the fund a few days after he bought it back.

Richard filed a revised financial disclosure last month, while the Fed said his original report contained "negligent errors." Notably, this is already the third important resignation of the Fed involved in the potential insider trading issue. In 2021, two fed governors resigned after "suspicious" transactions were exposed: Dallas Federal Reserve Bank President Robert and Boston Federal Reserve Bank President Rosengren.

You know, the Fed is equivalent to the central bank of the United States, but its internal officials have repeatedly exposed scandals, does this show that the United States has a lot of problems in development? As the saying goes, it is not enough, and this scandal is estimated to have sounded a wake-up call to the "high" Fed, and the real threat is often not on the outside, but on the inside. The second scandal in the United States, then, is its "black jail" all over the world, and January 11 is actually the 20th anniversary of Guantanamo Prison.

Guantanamo Prison is a prison set up by the US military in 2002 at the US naval base in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, to hold the so-called suspects captured by the US military in the global anti-terrorism operation after "9/11", since its establishment, the US abuse scandal has not stopped, the international community has expressed anger more than once, and the US side has repeatedly promised to close the prison, but 20 years later, Guantanamo Prison is still in operation. A panel of experts appointed by the UN Human Rights Council recently issued a public statement bombarding the United States, calling it a "prison for human rights violations" and saying that the Us practice of "arbitrary detention without trial and torture and ill-treatment" is "completely unacceptable."

Mainland Foreign Ministry spokesman Wang Wenbin also pointed out sharply that Guantanamo prison is a dark page in the history of human rights in the world. In fact, the "crime" of the United States is not only in Guantanamo Prison, it can be said that the secret prisons set up by the United States are almost all over the world. Reports have revealed that the United States has set up a large number of secret prisons in Afghanistan and its allies after launching the war in Afghanistan, and the US military has committed atrocities, torture and murder of civilians in the area after invading Iraq. However, after committing all kinds of acts of trampling on human rights, the United States washed its hands clean and acted as a so-called "beacon of human rights" and kept its mouth shut on the word "human rights." Is this a great irony?

What is more noteworthy is that what should be a "black prison" that should be a shame for the United States has been suspected of becoming a political tool. Former U.S. President Barack Obama has repeatedly promised to close Guantanamo Prison, but he did not deliver until he left office, and when Biden campaigned, "closing Guantanamo Prison" became his campaign slogan again. It has to be said that the scandal in the black jail has made all countries in the world further see the hypocrisy and ugliness of the United States on the issue of human rights. Even the German media did not side with the United States this time, lamenting that "even the staunchest supporters of the US government have to admit that there are human rights problems in the United States." Then, the third scandal of the United States is the evil deeds committed by the US military overseas.

Recently, the new crown mutation virus Omiljung is pervasive around the world, pushing many countries to the climax of the epidemic once again. At a time when countries around the world are fighting the epidemic in an all-out way, the US military stationed in some countries has become a "beautiful landscape". Their refusal to implement local epidemic prevention measures has created loopholes in epidemic prevention and allowed countries to see the hegemony of the United States once again. Among them, Japan and South Korea are "deeply affected." In order to strictly prevent Omikejong, the Japanese Kishida government has implemented very strict immigration control measures. However, it has not prevented the United States from all kinds of precautions, why is this? Because the United States is "hegemonic" enough, tens of thousands of US troops stationed in Japan can freely enter Japan because of the "Japan-US Status of The Union Agreement" and are not restricted by Japan's epidemic prevention policy at all. But the United States is already an exporter of the new crown virus, and the consequences can be imagined.

Now there is a cluster infection in Japan's US military bases, resulting in a sharp worsening of the epidemic in Japan, and the Japanese prime minister is even more "miserable". On the other hand, South Korea also has to endure the hegemony of the US military, since the outbreak of the epidemic, it has been repeatedly exposed that the US military in South Korea ignores South Korea's epidemic prevention measures, and when the Olmikron strain is strong, the US military stationed in South Korea does not wear masks in the barracks to hold various celebrations at the end of the year and the beginning of the year, which eventually led to a large number of infections and triggered criticism from South Korean public opinion.

In addition, the U.S. military is also secretly conducting biochemical experiments involving highly toxic pathogenic microorganisms in South Korea. In Japan, the US military is also "full of crimes", take Okinawa Prefecture in Japan, for example, from 1972 to 2016, the US military committed about 6,000 crimes, including robbery, rape, homicide and other vicious incidents. However, the most infuriating thing is that the criminal adjudication power of US military personnel belongs to the US side, and the Japanese side has no right to deal with the US military criminals, that is to say, For the behavior of the US military, Japan can only dare to be angry and dare not speak out.

We can foresee that in 2022, the United States and the United Kingdom, which began in the scandal, may face more scandals, for the inside, the scandal is a way to accelerate the collapse of major powers, for other countries, scandals and crimes are even more intolerable existence, I advise the United States to stop at the precipice in time, do not go further and further down the wrong road. Well, today's content will be shared with you here, we will see you next time!
