第一篇：英國新首相戴維·卡梅倫就職演說

英國新首相戴維卡梅倫就職演說，全文如下：

HER MAJESTY the queen has asked me to form a new government and I have accepted。Before I talk about that new government, let me say something about the one that has just passed.Compared with a decade ago, this country is more open at home and more compassionate abroad, and that is something we should all be grateful for。

女王陛下要求我組建新一屆政府，我已接受了這一要求。在談論新政府之前，請允許我先說一些最近發生的事情。與十年前相比，這個國家在國內更加開發，對外更富有同情心，我們應該為此心存感激。

On behalf of the whole country I'd like to pay tribute to the outgoing prime minister, for his long record of dedicated public service。

代表這個國家，我將對長期致力于公共服務的前首相表示贊揚。

In terms of the future, our country has a hung parliament where no party has an overall majority and we have some deep and pressing problems – a huge deficit, deep social problems and a political system in need of reform。

就未來而言，我們的國家有一個無論任何黨派都不占絕對優勢的議會，我們還面臨著一些深刻而迫切的問題-巨大的赤字，深刻的社會問題和需要改革的政治體制。

For those reasons, I aim to form a proper and full coalition between the Conservatives and the Liberal Democrats.I believe that is the right way to provide this country with the strong, the stable, the good and decent government that I think we need so badly。針對這些因素，我計劃在保守黨和自由民主黨之間建立一個合適而充分的聯盟。我相信，這是為我們國家能提供強大、穩定、良好和合宜的政府的正確途徑，而且我們非常需要。

Nick Clegg and I are both political leaders who want to put aside party differences and work hard for the common good and for the national interest.I believe that is the best way to get the strong government that we need, decisive government that we need today。

尼克.克萊格和我都是想撇開政黨利益，為公眾利益和國家利益而努力工作的政黨領導人。我相信，這是我們能夠得到我們今天需要的強大的、果斷的政府的最好途徑。

I came into politics because I love this country, I think its best days still lie ahead and I believe deeply in public service.And I think the service our country needs right now is to face up to our really big challenges, to confront our problems, to take difficult decisions, to lead people through those difficult decisions, so that together we can reach better times ahead。

我之所以從政是因為我熱愛這個國家。我認為最好的時代近在眼前并且我深信公共服務。我認為服務我們的國家，此刻需要面對真正的挑戰，直面困難，作出艱難的決定，并領導人民克服這些困難，這樣我們就能共同邁向美好的明天。One of the tasks that we clearly have is to rebuild trust in our political system.Yes, that’s about cleaning up expenses;yes, that’s about reforming parliament;and yes, it’s about making sure people are in control and that the politicians are always their servants and never their masters。

很明顯，我們的任務之一就是重建對我們政治體系的信任。是的，這就要求我們清理開支、改革議會、保證對人民的管理并確保政治家始終是人民的公仆，而非主人。

But I believe it’s also something else.It’s about being honest about what government can achieve.Real change is not what government can do on its own.Real change is when everyone pulls together, comes together, works together, when we all exercise our responsibilities to ourselves, to our families, to our communities and to others。但是我相信還有其他方面。就是要誠實地表現政府可能達到的業績。真正的變革不是僅靠政府之力就能完成的。真正的變革需要所有人齊心協力、眾志成城，需要我們每個人履行自己的職責，為自己，為家庭，為社會，也為其他人。

And I want to help build a more responsible society here in Britain, one where we don’t just ask ‘what are my entitlements?’ but ‘what are my responsibilities?’.One where we don’t just ask ‘what am I just owed?’ but more ‘what can I give?’.And a guide for that society, that those who can, should, and those who can’t, we will always help。

我希望幫助不列顛建立一個更有責任心的社會。一個不是僅僅問“我們的權利是什么””“我們應該感激誰”的社會，而是“我們的責任是什么”“我們能給予什么”的社會。為了實現這個社會，不管是那些能夠做到，應該做到和那些不能做到的人，我們會始終給予幫助。

I want to make sure that my government always looks after the elderly, the frail, the poorest in our country.We must take everyone through with us on some of the difficult decisions that we have ahead。

我希望確保我們的政府總能照顧關心我們國家的老弱病殘和最貧窮的人。我們必須讓大家每個人與我們一起面對我們曾面對過的艱難的決定。

Above all, it will be a government that will be built on some clear values – values of freedom, values of fairness, and values of responsibility。

首先，我們將組建一個具有清晰價值觀的政府-這個價值觀就是自由，公平和責任。

I want us to build an economy that rewards work, I want us to build a society with stronger families and stronger communities, and I want a political system that people can trust and look up to once again。

我希望，我們會組建一個工作能有所回報的經濟體制，一個有更強的家庭和社會責任心的社會，一個讓民眾可以期待和信任的政治體制。

This is going to be hard and difficult work.A coalition will throw up all sorts of challenges.But I believe together we can provide that strong and stable government that our country needs, based on those values – rebuilding family, rebuilding community, above all rebuilding responsibility in our country。

這將是一個艱巨的工作。聯合政府將會面臨各種挑戰。但是，我堅信，基于這樣的價值觀-重建家庭，重建社會，尤其是重建我們的責任感，我們就能夠共同創建一個我們國家需要的強大而穩定的政府。

Those are the things that I care about, those are the things that this government will now start work on doing。

這些就是我關心的事情，這些事情也正是我們的政府即刻開始要處理的。Thank you。

謝謝。

第二篇：英國卡梅倫2010年就任英國新首相就職演說

英國保守黨領袖卡梅倫就職英國首相演講

HER MAJESTY the queen has asked me to form a new government and I have accepted。

女王陛下已經授權予我組建新政府，我已接受了這一任命。

Before I talk about that new government, let me say something about the one that has just passed.Compared with a decade ago, this country is more open at home and more compassionate abroad, and that is something we should all be grateful for。

在談論新政府之前，請允許我談一談最近剛剛發生過的一件事情。與十年前相比，這個國家對內更加開放，對外更加富有同情心，我們都應該為此感到高興。

On behalf of the whole country I‘d like to pay tribute to the outgoing prime minister, for his long record of dedicated public service。

我謹代表這個國家，對長期致力于公共服務的前任首相深表贊揚。

In terms of the future, our country has a hung parliament where no party has an overall majority and we have some deep and pressing problems – a huge deficit, deep social problems and a political system in need of reform。

就未來而言，我們的議會無任何黨派占明顯多數，我們面臨著一些深刻而緊迫的問題龐大的赤字、深刻的社會問題以及需要改革政治制度。

For those reasons, I aim to form a proper and full coalition between the Conservatives and the Liberal Democrats.I believe that is the right way to provide this country with the strong, the stable, the good and decent government that I think we need so badly。

基于這些原因，我計劃在保守黨和自由民主黨間組建適當并充分的聯盟。我想，這是為國家提供一個我認為我們非常需要的強大、穩定、完善、體面的政府的正確途徑。

Nick Clegg and I are both political leaders who want to put aside party differences and work hard for the common good and for the national interest.I believe that is the best way to get the strong government that we need, decisive government that we need today。

尼克·克萊格(Nick Clegg)和我都是希望撇開黨派差異、為公益事業、為國家利益而努力的領導人。我認為，這是打造我們所需要的強大政府的最佳途徑，是打造今天我們需要的果斷的政府的最佳途徑。

I came into politics because I love this country, I think its best days still lie ahead and I believe deeply in public service.And I think the service our country needs right now is to face up to our really big challenges, to confront our problems, to take difficult decisions, to lead people through those difficult decisions, so that together we can reach better times ahead。

我之所以從政，是因為我熱愛這個國家，我相信最好的日子還在前面，我深信公共服務。我認為，服務國家最重要的是直面我們真正的大挑戰，直面我們的問題，做出艱難的決定，并領導人民克服這些困難，這樣我們就能夠一起邁向更美好的明天。

One of the tasks that we clearly have is to rebuild trust in our political system.Yes, that‘s about cleaning up expenses;yes, that‘s about reforming parliament;and yes, it‘s about making sure people are in control and that the politicians are always their servants and never their masters。

很明顯，我們的任務之一就是重建對政治體系的信任。是的，這就要求我們清理開支、改革議會、保證對人民的管理并確保政治家始終是人們的公仆，而非主人。

But I believe it‘s also something else.It‘s about being honest about what government can achieve.Real change is not what government can do on its own.Real change is when everyone pulls together, comes together, works together, when we all exercise our responsibilities to ourselves, to our families, to our communities and to others。

但是我相信還有其他方面。這關乎于要誠實地表現政府可能達到的業績。真正的變革不是僅靠政府之力就能完成的。真正的變革需要所有人齊心協力、眾志成城，需要我們每個人完成自己的責任，為自己，為家庭，為社會，也為其他人。

And I want to help try and build a more responsible society here in Britain, one where we don‘t just ask ?what are my entitlements?‘ but ?what are my responsibilities?‘.One where we don‘t just ask ?what am I just owed?‘ but more ?what can I give?‘.And a guide for that society, that those who can, should, and those who can‘t, we will always help。

我希望幫助不列顛建立一個更加有責任感的社會。在這樣一個社會，我們不會只問―我們的權利是什么‖，而是要問―我們的責任是什么‖；在這樣一個社會，我們不會只問―我應該感激誰‖，而是問―我能夠給與什么‖。為了實現這樣的社會，不管是對那些能夠做到、愿意做到還是不能做到的人，我們都應該始終給與幫助。

I want to make sure that my government always looks after the elderly, the frail, the poorest in our country.We must take everyone through with us on some of the difficult decisions that we have ahead。

我希望你們知道，我的政府一直在照顧我們國家的老者、弱者和貧困者。我們必須讓大家和我們一起面對一些我們之前曾面對過的困難決定。

Above all, it will be a government that will be built on some clear values – values of freedom, values of fairness, and values of responsibility。

總而言之，這將是一個建立在有著清晰價值觀上的政府——這個價值觀就是自由、公平和責任。

I want us to build an economy that rewards work, I want us to build a society with stronger families and stronger communities, and I want a political system that people can trust and look up to once again。

我希望我們能夠打造這樣一個讓工作有所回報的經濟體制，我希望我們能夠建設一個擁有更堅固家庭、更完善社區的社會，我希望帶來一個人民能夠信任并且再次令人民尊敬的政治體系。

This is going to be hard and difficult work.A coalition will throw up all sorts of challenges.But I believe together we can provide that strong and stable government that our country needs, based on those values – rebuilding family, rebuilding community, above all rebuilding responsibility in our country。

這需要艱苦卓絕的工作。聯合政府將面對各種各樣的挑戰。但是我堅信，基于這樣的價值觀——重建家庭、重建社區、重建我們國家的責任感，我們能夠提供我們國家所需要的堅強而穩定的政府。

Those are the things that I care about, those are the things that this government will now start work on doing。

這些是我關心的事情，也是這個政府即刻開始致力于處理的事情。

Thank you。

謝謝。

英國首相布朗今晨發表講話，稱將向英國女王提交辭呈，辭去首相職務；同時立即辭去工黨領袖職務。以下為布朗講話全文(中英文對照)：

AS YOU know, the general election left no party able to command a majority in the House of Commons。

正如你們所知道的，在此次大選中沒有哪個政黨能夠在下議院中擁有多數席位。

I said I would do all that I could to ensure a strong, stable and principled government was formed, able to tackle Britain‘s economic and political challenges effectively。

我曾說過，我將盡我所能以確保組建一個強有力的、穩定的、有原則的政府，這個政府將能夠有效地處理英國所面臨的經濟和政治挑戰。

My constitutional duty is to make sure that a government can be formed following last Thursday‘s general election。

我的憲法責任是確保在上周四的大選后英國能夠組建一個政府。

I have informed the Queen‘s private secretary that it‘s my intention to tender my resignation to the Queen。

我已告知女王的私人秘書，我想向她提交辭呈。

In the event that the Queen accepts, I shall advise her to invite the leader of the opposition to form a government.I wish the next prime minister well as he makes the important choices for the future。

如果女王接受我的辭呈，我將建議她邀請反對黨領導人組建政府。我祝未來首相好運，因為他將為未來作出重要的選擇。

Only those who have held the office of prime minister can understand the full weight of its responsibilities and its great capacity for good.I have been privileged to learn much about the very best in human nature, and a fair amount too about its frailties, including my own。

只有那些曾擔任過首相職務的人士才可以理解這一職務的責任是多么地重大，能夠做多少好事。我有幸在擔任這一職務時最真切地了解人的本性，也很大程度上了解了人的脆弱性，也包括我自己人性的脆弱。

Above all, it was a privilege to serve.And, yes, I loved the job, not for its prestige, its title and its ceremony, which I do not love at all.No, I loved thisjob for its potential, to make this country I love fairer, more tolerant, more green, more democratic, more prosperous and more just – truly a greater Britain。

首先，為國民服務是我的榮幸。是的，我愛這份工作，不是因為它所帶來的特權、頭銜、儀式，我根本不愛這些。不，我愛這份工作是因為它的潛力，使我所愛的國家更為公平、更寬容、更民主、更繁榮、更為正義，使其真的成為一個更為偉大的英國。

In the face of many challenges in a few short years, challenges up to and including the global financial meltdown, I have always strived to serve, to do my best in the interests of Britain, its values and its people。

最近幾年在面臨許多挑戰，包括全球金融危機在內的挑戰時，我總是努力地為國家服務，為了英國的利益、它的價值和它的人民盡我所能。

And let me add one thing also。

請讓我補充說明一件事。

I will always admire the courage I have seen in our armed forces.And now that the political season is over, let me stress that having shaken their hands and looked into their eyes, our troops represent all that is best in our country, and I will never forget all those who have died in honour and whose families today live in grief。

我將永遠仰慕我在英國軍人身上所看到的勇氣。現在競選活動已經結束，我想強調的是，在和他們握手，直視他們的眼睛后，我理解我們的士兵代表著這個國家最好的東西。我永遠不會忘記所有那些光榮犧牲的士兵和今天仍生活在悲痛中的他們的家人。

My resignation as leader of the Labour party will take effect immediately.In this hour I want to thank all my colleagues, ministers, members of parliament.And I want to thank above all my staff who have been friends as well as brilliant servants of the country。

我辭去工黨領袖的決定將立刻生效。在這一時刻，我想感謝所有我的同事、大臣們、議員們。我特別想感謝我的所有工作人員，他們一直是我的朋友，是國家優秀的公仆。

Above all, I want to thank Sarah for her unwavering support, as well as her love, and for her own service to our country。

我特別想感謝薩拉，謝謝她的堅定支持、她的愛、以及她對我們國家所作的事情。

I thank my sons John and Fraser for the love and joy they bring to our lives。

我感謝我的兩個兒子約翰和弗拉塞爾，感謝他們的愛和他們給我們生活所帶來的快樂。

And as I leave the second most important job I could ever hold, I cherish even more the first, as a husband and father。

在我將離任我生命中第二最重要的工作時，我更加珍視我的第一重要的工作，那就是作為一名丈夫和父親。

Thank you and goodbye。
