>>180095018
The Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth after finishing its political consolidation has made it's first move on the international scene, by demanding the return of Galicia-Ladomeria from the Habsburg Empire after massive Polish protests in Krakow and Lwow were crushed by Austrian para-military forces with many civilian casualties. The Austrian response at first was negative but after Germany sided with it's ally the Commonwealth, Austria was forced to concede.
Immediately after the annexation of Galicia-Ladomeria, Romania has send a diplomatic delegation to Warsaw to negotiate the status of Bukovina which has a majority Romanian population. Such a harsh move by Mitteleuropa against Austria has given Serbia an open hand with its goal of liberating all South Slavs under foreign heel.

“Now is the time!” Henderson cried at an electoral rally in London, “If we do not achieve victory now, we will not do so in time for Parliamentary means to be sufficient. I would like to work within the system, if I am able; I would like to not resort to violence, if I am able. But violence will be the necessary future if we cannot now bring down the behemoth of capital which this state has become. War, death, and slavery await us if Rosebery’s thinly-disguised reactionaries are not routed from office; war, death, and slavery await all the working proletariat if we cannot, here and now, secure victory. We must win, to serve as a shining example of what Communism can achieve. And if we do not, I weep; I weep for us, and I weep for the system that will be forced to face the armed might of the worker!”

These words, and those like them, were shouted throughout Britain time and again as the elections approached. Certainly, because of them, thousands more poor workers turned out and voted CPGB than would otherwise have done so. Yet, in the end, as politics in Britain has been since early in the century, votes alone do not secure victory; it is political dealing which does.

Although Earl Rosebery believed that his government was strong, in reality Liberal-Interventionist policy was quite maligned within the population at large, and only MPs and elected officials truly espoused the fiscally conservative, socially moderate, and jingoistic policy of Rosebery and his nearest confidants. Although they had secured political victories in Russia, Africa, and Asia, Rosebery himself never quite understood that, in the modern day, social issues had come to take on more import than bare military victories.

(2/2)

Thus, the CPGB and Labour, already together possessing a shockingly high 40% of the vote, proposed to enter into an electoral agreement with many local Liberal representatives, who would cross the aisle and run as either Labour or CPGB representatives. The rationale presented by the Labour-CPGB bloc suggested that many of these Liberal leaders stood to lose if they retained their old party loyalties. And the polls did suggest this; fury over Rosebery’s refusal to reform working conditions in the country had led to mass and radical Labour support.

Many therefore agreed to the proposed deal, but only on the condition that the CPGB make a firm statement that it would behave as a “proper” political party, respecting the laws of the United Kingdom and not attempting to achieve labor revolution, instead operating through policy initiatives and legislation. Arthur Henderson, now leader of the CPGB in Great Britain and highly respected both in Labour and CPG circles, agrees to the proposal, but only on the condition that he lead the coalition, which Labour, in turn, agrees to, provided Henderson’s cabinet contains no greater than two CPGB members.

Thus, on the 1st of January 1899, the coup of all coups takes place. With no Liberal representatives standing for office in fully half of the municipalities, with the Conservatives long-since placed at the fringes of politics, and with Labour and the CPGB reaping the benefits, to the shock of Britain’s elite the unthinkable occurs: a Socialist-Communist coalition takes power, with Arthur Henderson, chairman of the Communist Party, as the new Prime Minister.

The elites are dumbfounded. Earl Rosebery retires from politics and quietly moves to Canada, fleeing expected seizure by CPGB partisans; Victoria refuses to meet with Henderson. But, for the first time in a long time within Britain, the majority of people, free of electoral manipulation, support their new ruling coalition.

Henderson, however, is not particularly dismayed by the refusal of Victoria to support him. “I dislike Alexandrina on principle and would remove her from her position if I could,” he stated from the floor of Parliament, his usage of Victoria’s birth name and his confirmation that he would abolish the monarchy if he were able causing a moderate tumult.

Victoria, for her part, despises the very notion of the man. “He reminds me of Viscount Palmerston, speaking to me like a man and an equal, and not as a woman and a Queen. Yet this one is worse by far.” Quiet plans are made, kept entirely secret within Buckingham, for the evacuation of the Queen to a fast river schooner on the Thames, from which she and the royal family would be taken to a loyalist vessel at sea and transported from there to Poland, where her grandson ruled as Duke. Although the plan is not yet initiated--Victoria proves unwilling to abandon her people--it is prepared in the event that all goes ill.

Henderson is unaware of this, but if he were he would quite likely have not been over-much interested. His immediate concerns are on matters of policy within Britain, and specifically Britain’s outdated, decentralized industry. “We were once the strongest industrial nation on the planet, but we have fallen--fallen because we placed too much faith in the capitalist. They are a lazy folk, ever-eager for profit but without the wisdom to see how best to order their affairs in order to maximize it. Let them own the factories, I say; but let them purchase them from the government, which will construct the factory, maintain the factory, and shelter the worker from the capitalist’s cruel abuses!”

This is the announcement of one of Henderson’s campaign promises, the Three Year Plan of industrial reorganization, which will synergize British factories, remove the unprofitable, and modernize Britain’s factories and, especially, armament centers. It is eagerly looked forward to by the proletariat.

Well, nigh on sixty years of Liberal rule has pretty much made Britain a fully open society with major free speech provisions. Henderson can say what he wants about the Queen (she having been a figurehead for 50 years), even as PM, so long as it doesn't cause his party to back out from behind him, or cause a vote of no confidence from the opposition which will come shortly after this.

>>180103291
I didn't want to internationalize this part too much, but since the coalition is primarily Labour and Henderson just leads it it's mostly seen as a lame-duck communist leadership, where Labour has the real power and will continue to hold that power in future elections. It's still alarming that Labour would let a CPGB member actually become PM, but it's not really seen as a communist government, just a communist-led one.

>Well, no, I just forgot to put my trip on. That's why I deleted that post.
it was a joke

Despite Henderson's seemingly innumerous and unanimous support amongst the British working class he was challenged in a leadership debate by a new challenge, that of the particularly vigilant and militaristic wing of the party known as the British Union of Fascists.

It was for the longest period of time a sub-section of the Labour movement as a whole, but although their economic policies were near ide tical their sofial policy was quite difference. Whilst the communists preached egalitarianism, equality, and tolerance the fascist sect preached nationalism, the nuclear family, traditional values, these proved popular amongst the labour working class base.

It was perhaps for this reason that in February, 1900 the BUF contingent candidate proved popular enough to win the leadership election, upon doing so the communists then split, as it became all too apparent what was once there part had rapidly become nothing more than the BUF, due to the executive decisions decided upon by the new chairperson, or chairman, as he decided to rename the title, stating that gender roles in sodiety must not be renounced, lest that society itself fall from the true intended natural order of the world. One thing was for sure, the British Union of Fascists had full control over the apparatus of state, sweeping to power against the backwash of parliamentary division, this would be the start of the fascist movement in Britain, Europe. and later, the world.

For the second time in this century there has been signed a peace with honour between the German Reich and Britain.
As all hostilities cease between Mitteleuropa and the last bastion of Socialism in Europe, Britain so ends the Second Weltkrieg with Germany as the victor once again.
Oswald Moseley and his totalist, securing white peace with Germany continue their war against both Canada and the Entente in exile and Finland and its Scandinavian puppets. With this new development, Socialism has been given another chance as it has the possibility to expand into Scandinavia, America and Africa alike. With British marines occupying Gotland, Finland looks like the prime target...

Unfortunately, the Three Year Plan’s necessary consequences--the temporary unemployment of hundreds of thousands of Britons--proves much despised by the proletariat who before called for it. “I voted for ‘im, Henderson. Thought ‘e’d do us right,” one furious Leeds worker despondently told a reporter for the Times when asked about the situation. “The fuck am I mentta eat? I got kids, mate—how’m I mentta feed ‘em? Can’t, can’t at all. Henderson, mate, I thought ‘e was one of us, but nah, ‘e ain’t. He’s just another fahckin lickspittle.”

The extent of the urban unrest caused by the reorganization is severely alarming to the elites in Parliament, who already see the CPGB-Labour alliance as the prelude to an imminent labor rising in Britain. A vote of no confidence is attempted, but the time was not ripe for the forces of reaction, and it was easily defeated by the left coalition.

With his mandate reinforced, Henderson thus sets to soothing the concerns of the urban workers. His first act creates a new cabinet position, Secretary of Labour Affairs, which is one of the two he staffs with Communists; in this case he chooses the national-socialist Henry Hyndman, who is uniquely suited to handle labor relations within Britain. Following Hyndman’s report on labor conditions, Henderson pushes unemployment reforms through the leftist Parliament to ensure that the state will pay workers livable wages while their workplaces are closed, and initiates uniform factory expansions throughout Britain at huge cost to the state to help ensure that all the unemployed will return to work as quickly as possible.

“What I have done now,” Henderson cries at a CPGB rally in his seat of Leeds, “is nothing less than ensure that Britain’s industry, so long declining, shall experience a vibrant rebirth. But it is a rebirth which will not enrich the already-fat capitalist, nor shall it impoverish the worker. The state and the worker together will march to the future!”

Now we stand united alongside our Orthodox brother in the Balkans, with strong and modern armed forces, ready to liberate the peoples of Central Europe from the yoke of feudal rule.
The Fifth Balkan War has started. The fifth one in little more than 30 years, let it be the last one. For King and Country!

Am I retarded for not picking throughput tech?

Demand for factories works off of
Base x Throughput Eff x Input Eff

And output works off of
Base x Throughput Eff x Output Eff

So having a low input (less goods used) overall, and high output (more goods produced) overall, is optimal, right? Using less of the global market is better as a GP or SP or civ or even unciv is better because it makes you less reliant on market shortages.

So throughput both increases input demand, as well as increasing ouput supply... which results in an increase in demand with an increase in supply, meaning you can use less labour to produce the same amount of goods.

But you should want to employ as many people as possible, so long as factories as making profits off of suboptimal labour usage. So why use up more demand on the same amount of labour when you can just use the same amount of demand with more labour, assuming you don't increase throughput efficiency?

Granted, the increased production from throughput tech for certain types of RGO production is nice, but if you don't have those RGO's, why take the tech?

If you are in a situation where goods are readily available, then pushing for throughput would be a good idea, since you aren't limited to shortages from the market. It also helps increase the net profits from a factory, considering you pay the same amount to workers for more goods produced.

The first serious foreign policy issue to arise in Henderson’s ministry is the issue of Irish Home Rule. Instigated years before by Charles Stewart Parnell, the issue did not die under the auspices of the left coalition, but indeed accelerated. Parnell was convinced that the benevolent anti-war and pro-laborer inclinations of the far left would support Irish independence, and pressed forward with the vote without seriously studying the opinions of the coalition leadership.

When it comes to a vote, to Parnell’s horror he finds the left coalition divided. Not just moderate socialists but also some communists--including Augustus Keane, son of one of Ireland’s first Catholic MPs, Henry Keane--do not see Ireland as a potentially separate entity. “Britain has done ill to Ireland, it is true,” Keane acknowledged, “yet Britain has also repaid her ills; she spent every dollar of the treasury to help Ireland during the famine, she passed the Second Irish Reform Act to marginalize the nobility and raise up the Catholics; and she invested heavily, under the government of Gladstone, in the future of the Irish. My father said that day, ‘an Irishman must be British or he must not be,’ and Britain answered that we were. Since then she has treated us as equals in all respects, and invested much in us to amend for past follies. And now this floor is graced by a proposal which is niggardly in the extreme, a repudiation of the aid she has given us and the acceptance she has afforded us. We are Britons, my friends.”

Many pro-independence MPs, including Cabinet member James Connolly, walk out in response, but the vote, following Keane’s impassioned speech, is clear: the Irish are not Irish at all, but Britons, an integral part of the United Kingdom.

In a rage Connolly resigns his position as Minister for Foreign and Colonial Affairs, and in recognition of his unitary view of Britian’s possessions, Henderson names Keane Connolly’s successor to the office.

also, funny enough administrative efficiency does a better job at indirectly increasing input efficiency since your pops will demand less goods

The next month, while Keane is still becoming accustomed to his duties, the Nicaragua Crisis begins when the King of Nicaragua, Miguel I, occupies Bluefields on the Miskito Coast. The government must now decide how to respond.

Although Miguel implies that he would be amenable to a monetary compensation for the territory and many left-communists advocate abandoning the territory to its “rightful owner,” both Keane and Henderson are in something of a difficult position. Constrained by Parliamentary politics and the opinions of the people, themselves still strongly pro-imperial, abandoning the territory even with compensation paid would be cause for another vote of no confidence. Although Keane advises against the retention of the territory, Henderson reluctantly overrules him, citing his view that Bluefields is an important defensive base near Panama, and will be critical for defense. It cannot simply be given up, and therefore the marines must be sent in.

Although Keane disapproves he accedes to the wishes of his party’s chief, who is, after all, highly respected. Zachary Wolseley, the Conqueror of St. Petersburg, arrives in Bluefields in late June, crushing King Miguel’s armies and capturing Managua not long after. The peace forces Nicaragua to disband their army, pay reparations, and to cede all claims on the Miskito coast.

Although the move is denounced by many international communist parties, it is approved of within Britain. “If this is how the CPGB is to do business,” one anonymous Conservative laughed, “I will tolerate them, at least until we can be rid of them properly.”

I doubt it, but it isn't as if that information couldn't be clarified in the press. Most Americans today don't know we have military bases in other nations, but if they were attacked their location and the circumstances of their existence would be clarified rapidly by the press, and you can bet if the government proved unwilling to fight for them it would catch fire for it. The same situation is the case here, since almost no Britons don't see worth in giving up territory.

>>180108256
Another crisis--for the far-left, at least--occurs before the end of the year, when the Italian Directors call for British support in their war to capture Roma from the Papacy.

None know precisely what to do. The head of Labour, James Keir Hardie, advises that no true pro-labor government can support the actions of a bourgeois dictatorship where the rich control the state. Keane, for his part, agrees with him, but does mention that supporting the Papacy can be taken very much the wrong way, and therefore that opposition to the Directors must be carefully contextualized. But moderates within government suggest the Henderson that Italy’s victory in the war is inevitable, that supporting the Italians would cost nothing, and that forcing concessions out of their government may be possible in return for support. What’s more, it would appease the other political parties within Britain which are still far from confident in the peaceful intentions of the left coalition.

To the fury of the far left, Henderson again sides with the politic and moderate course of supporting the Italians Directors, although he sends no troops or monetary aid. The move verges on the heretical for a communist, and Keane almost resigns his post; indeed, several CPGB MPs almost switch Labour, before Henderson confirms that he was able to secure an agreement from the Directors that children will no longer be used in labor, and enslavement and serfdom for the poor are no longer legal. Many shake their heads that such policies were ever possible in a civilized nation, but their successful negation is seen as a worthwhile price by most. Nevertheless, Henderson’s communist credentials begin to be questioned.

As for Africa, I know it SEEMS overly expansionist, but it's well in keeping with the actual British doctrine of the era, cape to Cairo, and all that.

Decided to try the latest version of Great War mod for HOI4.

I managed to win WW1 in a few years as AH with just the Ottomans, Germany and me in the Central Powers.
Russia got destroyed quicker than Serbia, and France was completely annihilated as well.
Romania, Bulgaria and the US had no time to join the war.
Germany took over the whole of North Africa and i was fighting only in Northern Italy when i got the event to sign a treaty with France, so i did which ended the war with only territory gains from Russia that i got earlier.
Then everyone joined the British Union faction and i'm not sure what happens now, it's only 1916. The Russian civil war is still ongoing.

With a hunger for petroleum only recently realized in the industrial sphere, the capitalist William D’Arcy travels to the Shah of Persia in order to conclude a deal for the extraction of oil in the Abadan region of the Gulf of Persia. The move is intended to increase the total available world supply, certainly, but it is primarily a preemptive move on D’Arcy’s part to ensure the Shah’s government does not capitalize upon oil without a British man reaping the benefits.

Fortunately, the Oversight of Foreign Corporations Act--a very popular bill sponsored by Henderson and intended to reduce tax evasion and ensure fair deals are being negotiated with foreigners--catches D’Arcy’s unfairly profiteering scheme and forces him to significantly change the conditions of the agreement. Instead of the Shah receiving 50% shares of the corporation, D’Arcy will receive 33.4%, the Shah 33.3%, and the people of Abadan 33.3%, to ensure that the local workers are also represented. In addition, while D’Arcy’s company will receive rights to drill at the site for 60 years uninterrupted, locals will be entitled to 10% of the profits of each oil barrel sold, and the Shah 1% of each barrel.

The move infuriates investors throughout Britain, who see it as the over-righteous hand of government interfering with the market, but following the political reverses of his foreign policy the success of mediating D’Arcy’s agreement provides a much-needed boost to Henderson’s flagging support among the proletariat.

Encouraged by the new left coalition government, an Anti-Colonial league springs up in Britain. Primarily consisting of socialists and communists but also including some ethnic nationalists and isolationist liberals, the league advocates the granting of Dominion status to Britain’s various colonies “as rapidly as is practical” in order to “ensure that the cruel hand of capitalism, and the various other maladies which might be caused by the domineering relationship between Britain and her colonial subjects, be negated as rapidly as is possible.”

Although Henderson is extremely wary about putting his full support behind the league, he does feel that Dominion status for the colonies is mandated as an anti-imperialist gesture, and, although he does not give a timetable for these events, acknowledges in a public statement from Downing Street that “the present government believes that the colonies Great Britain currently holds are indeed held unlawfully, and that this government unjustly and unreasonably profits from the labor of others. We hold that it is of paramount importance to return control to the locals of these various nations as soon as they are prepared for independent rule, and to that end the current government has begun a program of subsidies on schools within our colonies, and heavy subsidization for the elite to gain an education within Britain. As soon as it is deemed that a given nation is prepared for independence, with readied leadership and state infrastructure, then Dominion status will be conferred.”

This announcement, even so vague as it is, causes panic within the colonies, and many areas, particularly South Africa, threaten revolution against the “anti-white” home government. Although they are pacified by reassurances that the time for Dominion status is yet far off, the fury represents a flashpoint which is likely to flare again.

For now, though, the colonies remain with Britain, and even if conditions there have been ameliorated by the appointment of benevolent administrators, the work of the native still passes, ultimately, to the hand of the Briton. It makes the state incredibly, almost unimaginably wealthy.

Although taxes are relatively high under the left coalition, sitting at a flat 50% of income for all classes, the wealth intake is so massive that the extent of the taxes is hardly warranted. Instead of reducing them, however, the government instead decides to fund a major importation program: all foreign goods purchased by Britons, including colonial subjects, are subsidized at a rate of 25%.

The move, entirely unexpected from a far-left protectionist government, pleases business interests and average purchasers both, as goods are now available at incredibly cheap prices and many more services are now affordable throughout Britain. This move is quite probably the most popular that Henderson makes in the entirety of his mandate.

For a year, tensions in the metropole remain low; further legislation is passed regarding worker rights, safety conditions in factories are improved, zoning reforms break up existing boroughs and further weaken Liberal power (to the fury of the rejuvenated Liberal party, which believed that it had a serious chance in the next election cycle), and a slow and cautious, yet steady, pace of anti-capitalist legislation is passed which gradually places more power in the hands of the workers and their representatives.

Yet in the colonies fury at the “traitors’ system” is untold. In the vile race-states of Oranje and the Trans-Vaal especially the communistic ideology coming from London is not merely seen as detestable, but an actual threat to white rule. When Henderson prepares legislation which would curb the independence of these Boer states in preparation for federating South Africa under singular rule, the Boer Republics both have enough; they declare complete independence from Britain and declare that any British citizen who passes their borders will be “shot on sight as an expected terrorist.”

This, of course, cannot be allowed to stand. In the name of relieving the horrific labor conditions of the Africans in the Boer states, and of continuing the continued march of Britain toward civilizing the native and ameliorating their conditions, Henderson, with the full support of Keane, declares that the Boers will be triumphed over.

What follows is a tense and drawn-out conflict, made all the harder by the Trans-Vaal’s strong defensive position and large population. Although two full armies are committed to the task, even after a full summer battles are still taking place and much British territory has been occupied. The Boers, in short, are putting up far more of a fight than expected from a segregated state.

throughput is basically workers productivity

one worker can now process more goods for the same wages and the factory overall produce more goods for the same maintenance cost.

it helps the factory to stay profitable when social reforms increase wage and maintenance

Plus, more goods are on the market which decrease price which can make factories close in other countries that are not up to date with industrial tech, resulting in a bigger market share for you

I mean I get that it increases workers productivity, but in a market where market goods get bought up very quickly by the great powers, increasing the amount of resources you use to produce more goods with the same number of workers is less beneficial then employing more workers with less per worker efficiency. In markets with no shortage issues that are in low demand, then throughput is ideal to remain in the black with factories and output of goods, but supply limited markets do not benefit from an increase in per worker efficiency since you cannot make use of the increased usage of limited goods.

>accepting social reforms
1902 and rebellions are easily quashed in small, centralized states like mountain jew. Voting reforms are fine since the impact of factories isn't a direct effect, but haven't done min wage, hourly reforms, safety regs.

By February of 1902 the world knows of the Boer Wars, and even in the face of British victories people across the world begin to question what they represent. Rather than a colonial conflict as Augustus Keane’s foreign office attempts to contextualize the fighting, the Boer War is rather seen by many as a communist government’s attempt to subvert and subjugate a nationalist, scientifically race-organized state. In other words, to them it is degeneracy reaching out to infect other states with that same degeneracy.

At a conference of ethnology and anthropology in Oslo, the first basic tenets of fascist ideology are articulated as a counter-ideology to communism. Rooted in racial-nationalist principles, these first fascists agree with communists that unchecked capitalism is detrimental, yet seek primarily the construction of a state which is mighty enough to enforce racial difference and to construct a national character (not to mention a police system) which is strong enough to exclude the “poor, atheist, negro-loving, Jew-backed communists that seek to break the historic and racial dominance of the Western world.”

Although their numbers begin small, British representatives at the Oslo conference do travel back to Britain and found the British Union of Fascists that year, specifically calling upon traditional conservatives to back their efforts to topple the communist state. Scotland Yard, long-since having accepted many of the far left into its ranks, is tasked with observing the new party.

By the end of April 1902, just a year after the war began, the Boer War concludes, and discussion of it abroad dies down (although the Fascist movement has already been started, and the potential damage to leftist ideology caused by the Boer War has thus already occurred). In an unexpectedly harsh move the leaders of the rebellion, including Presidents Martinus Theunis Steyn and Paul Kreuger, are executed for their roles in the protracted war.

Nevertheless, treatment for the remainder of the Boers is unexpectedly light. In what will come to form a model for other bi-racial colonies, the Dutch are not dispossessed of power in the colony, but are forced to share it in an equal amount with the Africans, and are likewise forced to pay an “enslavement indemnity” to marginalized African peoples to ensure that they have a basis of wealth from which to operate. Although this is at first heavily resisted within Boer society, the presence of almost 100,000 British guns rapidly convinces them to undertake the measures as proscribed.

Later historians frequently remark upon how curious it is that the British armies in the region chose to cooperate with the overtly communistic policy taken in the newly-reorganized Boer states, but they are then reminded that the armies themselves were colonial, and largely made up of footsoldiers that were communists; their officers were squeezed on both sides. Thus, the wealth distribution took place as Henderson and the Labour colonial office intended.

In an act of conciliation to economic interests in Africa, however, the Rhodesian charter originally granted in 1888 is extended in breadth to cover most of the land between Tanzania and South Africa, expanding the mining interests there as compensation to the wealth extraction opportunities that capitalists will not have in the centrally-controlled and nativized Boer states.

Shortly following the conclusion of the Boer conflict, Britain becomes involved in a crisis in the Balkans regarding Serbian territory. Serbia, which is itself a dictatorship of the proletariat working towards true communism, is demanding Novi Pazar from the Emirate of Bosnia-Herzegovina. Novi Pazar has rich iron mines and would be extremely helpful in assisting Serbia’s burgeoning industry, and the Germans--likely merely to spite the Austro-Hungarians--have decided to support Serbia’s claim.

For entirely different reasons, Augustus Keane convinces Henderson to lead Britain in supporting the Serbs as well. “It is our duty to be international brothers of the proletariat, to aid and succor the worker wherever he lives. Our Serb cousins must be strengthened, their commune protected; it is our duty to fight and die for our brothers, if we must.”

Although it is a very unpopular move among the Labour War Ministry and the army itself, Henderson does lead Britain into supporting the Serbs. Several army officers resign on the grounds of refusing to assist the “spread of cancerous proletarianism outside of this government, where it is, at least, constrained by the good sense of eighty per-cent of the members of its coalition.”

Fortunately, the matter does not come to war; the Austro-Hungarians, terrified of combined German and British support, back down and cede Novi Pazar to the Serb Commune.

A few months later and Arthur Henderson’s health has begun to deteriorate. Always something of a heavy drinker--“it comes with the job,” he used to tell fellow industrial workers--it has now caught up with him. He has advanced liver failure, and is not expected to survive the year.

More and more of his duties have begun to be delegated to the only other two CPGB members in his cabinet, the national-socialist Henry Hyndman and the internationalist Augustus Keane. Hyndman, however, only has control over domestic affairs, while Keane has the ability to reach out to the international from his position as Foreign Secretary.

In order to increase his political capital, Keane negotiates the Trucial Treaty that summer, which unites the Trucial States, forces the Emirs to accept a limiting council of Sheikhs, and abolishes slavery within the territory, all without fully negating the local systems of power or wealth. The move is a surprisingly politic one for a communist, and even some members of the Conservatives in Parliament grudgingly acknowledge the quality of the treaty and its help in ensuring British dominance in the east.
