卡梅伦深情挽留苏格兰演讲

We meet in a week that could change the United Kingdom forever.Indeed, it could end the United Kingdom as we know it。

On Thursday, Scotl and votes, and the future of our country is at stake.On Friday, people could be living in a different country,with a different place in the world and a different future ahead of it。This is a decision that could break up our family of nations, and rip Scotland from therest of the UK.And we must be very clear.There’s no going back from this.No rerun.This is a once-and-for-all decision。If Scotland votes yes, the UK will split, and we will go our separate ways forever。When people vote on Thursday, they are not just voting for themselves, but for their children and grandchildren and the generations beyond。So I want to speak directly to the people of this country today about what is at stake。

I speak for millions of people across England, Wales and Northern Ireland and many in Scotland, to who would betterly heartbroken by the breakup of the United Kingdom。

Utterly heartbroken to wake up on Friday morning to the end of the country we love, to know that Scots would nolonger join with the English, Welsh and Northern Irishin our Army, Navy and AirForce, in our UK-wide celebrations and commemorations, in UK sporting teamsfrom the Olympics to the British Lions。The United Kingdom would be nomore.No UK pensions, no UK passports, no UK pound。

The greatest example of democracy the world has ever known, of openness, of peopleof different nationalities andfaiths coming together as one, would be no more。It would be the end of a countrythat launched the Enlightenment that abolished slavery that drove the industrial revolution that defeated fascism.The end of a country that peoplearound the world respect and admire the end of a country that all of us call home。

And we built this home together.It’s only become Great Britain because of the greatness of Scotland。Because of the thinkers, writers,artists, leaders, soldiers, inventors who have made this country what it is。It's Alexander Fleming and DavidHume;J.K.Rowling and Andy Murray and all the millions of people who have played their part in this extraordinary success story, the Scots who led thecharge on pensions and the NHS and on social justice。We did all this together。

For the people of Scotland towalk away now would be like painstakingly building ahome – and then walking out the door and throwing away the keys。SoI would say to everyone votingon Thursday, please remember.This isn't just any old country.This is the United Kingdom.This is our country。

And you know what makes us truly great?It's not our economic might or military prowess, it's our values。British values.Fairness.Freedom.Justice。The values that say wherever youare, whoever you are, your life has dignity and worth。The values that say we don't walk on by when people are sick, that we don't ask for your credit card in the hospital, that we don't turn our backs when you get old and frail。That we don't turn a blind eye ora cold heart to people around the world who are desperate and crying out for help。This is what Britain means。This is what makes us the greatest country on earth。And it's why millions of us could not bear to see that country ending – for good,for ever – on Friday。

NowI know that there are many people across Scotland who are planning to vote Yes。I understand why this might sound appealing。It's the promise of something different。I also know that the people who are running the Yes campaign are painting a picture of a Scotland that is better in every way, and they can be good at painting that picture。But when something looks too goodto be true – that's usually because it is。And it is my duty to be clear about the likely consequences of a Yes Vote。Independence would not be a trial separation;it would be a painful divorce。And as Prime Minister I have totell you what that would mean。

It would mean we no longer share the same currency。It would mean the armed forces we have built up together over centuries being split up forever。It would mean our pension fundssliced up – at some cost。It would mean the borders we have would become international and may no longer be so easily crossed。It would mean the automatic support that you currently get from British embassies when you’re travelling around the world would come to an end。It would mean over half of Scottish mortgages suddenly, from one day to the next,being provided by banksin a foreign country。It would mean that we no longer pool resources across the whole of the UK to pay for institutions like the NHSor our welfare system。It would mean that interest rates in Scotland are no longer set by the Bank of England – with the stability and security that promises。It would mean – for any banksthat remain in Scotland – if they ever got introuble it would be Scottish taxpayers and Scottish taxpayers alone that would bear the costs。This is not guess work.There are no question marks, no maybe this or maybe that。The Nationalists want to break up UK funding on pensions, the UK funding of healthcare,the UK funding and comprehensive protection on national security。These are the facts.This is what would happen。An end to the things we share together。And the people of Scotland must know these facts before they make this once-and-for-all decision。To warn of the consequences is not to scare-monger it is like warning a friendabout a decision they might take that will affect the rest of their lives – and the lives of their children。Is ay all this because I don't want the people of Scotland to be sold a dream that disappears。

Now I know that some people say:we've heard about the risks and the uncertainties but we still want change。Look.The United Kingdom is not a perfect country-no country is。Of course we must constantly change and improve people's lives。No one is content while there are still children living in poverty。No oneis content while there arepeople struggling, and young people not reaching their potential。Yes,every political party is different。But we are all of us –Conservatives, Labour, Lib Dems, Nationalists – on aconstant mission to change our country for the better。The question is: how do you get that change? For me it's simple。

You don't get the change you wantby ripping your country apart。You don't get change by undermining your economy and damaging your businesses and diminishing your placein the world。But you can get real, concrete change on Thursday: if you vote No.’Businessas usual' is not on the ballot paper.The status quo is gone。This campaign has swept it away。There is no going back to the waythings were。

A vote for No means real changeand we have spelled that change out in practical terms, with a plan and a process。If we get a No vote on Thursday,that will trigger a major, unprecedented programme of devolution with additional powers for the Scottish Parliament.Major new powers over tax,spending and welfare services。Wehave agreed a timetable forthat stronger Scottish Parliament: a time-table to bring in the new powers thatwill go ahead if there is a No vote...a White Paper by November, put into draft legislation by January。This is a time table that is now agreed by all the main political parties and set instone and I am prepared towork with all the main parties to deliver thisduring 2015.So a No vote actually means faster, fairer, safer and better change。And this is a vital point:Scotland is not an observer in the affairs of this country。Scotland is shaping and changing the United Kingdom for the better – more so today than at any point in the last three hundred years and will continue to help shape the constitution of ourcountry。And Scottish people can enjoy the additional powers its Parliament gives without losing the UK pension, the UK pound or the UK passport。Real change is Scotland's for the taking。The power to set your own courseand make your own decisions with the security of being in the UK without the risks of going it alone。

It's the best of both worlds。

Scotland’s identity is already,strong Scottish culture, strong Scottish arts, a strong Church of Scotlandand in the last 15years you have built a strong Scottish Parliament not afleeting institutionbut a permanent one。

So the vote on Thursday is not about whether Scotland is a nation.Scotland is aproud, strong, success fulnation.The vote on Thursday is about two competing visions for Scotland’sfuture。

The Nationalists’ vision of narrowing down, going it alone, breaking all ties with the UK。

Or the patriotic vision of astrong Scottish nation allied to the rest of the United Kingdom with its ownstronger Scottish Parliament at its heart, and with the benefits of working together in the UK on jobs, pensions, healthcare funding,the currency, interestrates。

It really is the best of both worlds and it's the best way to get real change and secure a better future for your children and grand-children，which is what this vital debate all about。

And speaking of family – that is quite simply how I feel about this.We are afamily.The United Kingdom is no tone nation.We are four nations in a single country。

That can be difficult but it is wonderful.Scotland, England, Wales and NorthernIreland are different nations,with individual identities competing with each other even at times enraging each other while still being so much stronger together。

We are a family of nations。

Why should the next generation ofthat family be forced to choose whether to identify only with Edinburgh or only with London choose which embassy they want to go to when they are in trouble abroad or pack their passport when they're going to see friends and loved ones?

A family is not a compromise, or a second best, it is a magical identity, that makes us more together than we can ever be apart。

So please do not break this family apart。

In human relations it's almostnever a good thing to turn away from each other,put up walls, score new lines on the map。

Why would we take one Great Britain and turn it into separate smaller nations?

What is that an answer to?

How will that help the ambitious young people who want to make their mark on the world or the pensioner who just wants security or the family relying on jobs make in the UK?

Let no one fool you that ‘Yes' isa positive vision.It's about dividing people,closing doors, making foreigners of our friends and family。

This isn't an optimistic vision。

The optimistic vision is of ourfamily of nations staying together there for each other in the hard timescoming through to better times。

We've just pulled through a greatrecession together.We’re moving forward together.The road has been long but it is finally leading upwards and that's why I ask you to vote No to walking away。

Vote No , and you are voting for a bigger and broader and better future for Scotland, and you are investing in the future for your children and grandchildren.So this is our message to the people of Scotland:

We want you to stay.Head and heart and soul, we want you to stay。

Please don't mix up the temporary and the permanent。

Don't think: “I'm frustrated with politics right now, so I'll walk out the door and never come back。”

If you don't like me – I won't be here forever.If you don't like this Government– it won't last forever.But if you leave the UK – that will be forever。

Yes,the different parts of the UK don't always see eye-to-eye。

Yes,we need change– and we will deliver it but to get that change, to get a brighter future, we don't need to tear our country apart。

In two days, this long campaign will be at an end.And as you stand in the stillness of the polling booth, I hope you will ask yourself this。

Will my family and I truly be better off by going it alone? Will we really be more safe and secure? Do I really want to turn my back on the rest of Britain, and why is it that so many people across the world are asking: why would Scotland want to do that? Why? And if you don't know the answer to these questions –then vote No。

At the end of the day, all the arguments of this campaign can be reduced to a single fact: we are better together.So as you reach your final decision,please don't let anyone tell you that you can't be a proud Scot and a proud Brit。

Don't lose faith in what this country is – and what we can be.Don’t forget what a great United Kingdom you are part of.Don’t turn your backs on what is the best family of nations in the world and the best hope for your family in this world.So please, from all of us: Vote to stick together, vote to stay, vote to save our United Kingdom。

第二篇：卡梅伦辞职演讲

英国首相卡梅伦辞职演讲

David Cameron made an emotional speech on the steps of Number 10 where he announced his resignation.Here's what the PM said in full: The country has just taken part in a giant democratic exercise, perhaps the biggest in our history.Over 33 million people from England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland and Gibraltar have all had their say.国家刚刚举行了一场规模巨大的民主活动，也许是我们历史上最大的。来自英格兰、苏格兰、威尔士、北爱尔兰和直布罗陀，超过3300万人民行使了发言权。

We should be proud of the fact that in these islands we trust the people with these big decisions.我们应该感到自豪的是，我们信任这些岛屿上人民做出的重大决策。

We not only have a parliamentary democracy, but on questions about the arrangements for how we are governed, there are times when it is right to ask the people themselves, and that is what we have done.我们不仅拥有一个议会民主制，而且有关国家如何治理的问题，有的时候就需要问问人民自己，这就是我们所做的。

The British people have voted to leave the European Union and their will must be respected.英国人民已经投票决定离开欧盟，他们的意愿必须得到尊重。

I want to thank everyone who took part in the campaign on my side of the argument, including all those who put aside party differences to speak in what they

believed was the national interest.And let me congratulate allthose who took part in the leave campaign for the spirited and passionate case that they made.我想感谢所有为留欧派奔走的人，包括所有抛弃党派分歧的人，他们支持自己坚信的有利于 国家的观点。同时让我向所有脱欧派人士的精神和激情表示祝贺。

The will of the British people is an instruction that must be delivered.It was not a decision that was taken lightly, not least because so many things were said by so many different organisations about the significance of this decision.So there can be no doubt about the result.英国人民的意志就是命令，必须服从。这不是一个可以掉以轻心的决定，尤其因为各种不同

组织对其重要性曾做出的那些解释，所有不用对结果有任何怀疑。

Across the world people have been watching the choice that Britain has made.I would reassure those markets and investors that Britain’s economy is fundamentally strong.全球各地的人们都看到了英国做出的选择，我想向市场和投资者保证，英国经济的基本面是强劲的。

And I would also reassure Britons living in Europeancountries and European citizens livng here that there will be no immediate changes in your circumstances.There will be no initial change in the way our people can travel, in the way our goods can move or the way our services can be sold.对于居住在欧盟各国的英国人，以及住在英国的欧盟公民，我向你们保证你们的状况不会立

即发生改变，出行方式暂时不会变化，货物依然可以流通，服务依旧能够交易。We must now prepare for a negotiation with the European Union.This will need to involve the full engagement of the Scottish, Welsh and Northern Ireland Governments, to ensure that the interests of all parts of our United Kingdom are protected and advanced.But above all this will require strong, determined and committed leadership.现在我们必须做好与欧盟谈判的准备。这需要苏格兰、威尔士和北爱尔兰政府的全力配合，确保英国所有部分的利益得到捍卫和提升，但首要的是，这需要强大的、坚定的和全心投入的领导人。I am very proud and very honoured to have been Prime Minister of this country for six years.我万分自豪和荣幸担任国家首相六年。

I believe we’ve made great steps, with more people in work than ever before in our history;with reforms to welfare and education;increasing people’s life chances;building a bigger and stronger society;keeping our promises to the poorest people in the world, and enabling those who love each other to get married whatever their sexuality.But above all restoring Britain’s economic strength, and I am grateful to everyone who has helped to make that happen.我相信我们取得了巨大进步，就业率历史最高，福利和教育的改革，增加人民的机会，社会更强大，对世界上最穷困的人们信守承诺，使彼此相爱的人能够结婚，无论他们的性别。但首要的是恢复了英国的经济实力，我感谢所有为此做出贡献的人。I have also always believed that we have to confront big decisions, not duck them.我也一直认为，我们必须直面重大决定，不能逃避。

That’s why we delivered the first Coalition government in seventy years to bring our economy back from the brink.It’s why we delivered a fair, legal and decisive referendum in Scotland.And why I made the pledge to renegotiate Britain’s position in the European Union and hold a referendum on our membership, and have carried those things out.所以我们组建了70年的第一个联合政府，把我们的经济从悬崖上拉回来，所以我们在苏格兰举行了一场公平、合法和决定性的全民公投，所以我承诺重新协商英国在欧盟的地位并举行这次公投，做了所有这些事.I fought this campaign in the only way I know how, which is to say directly and passionately what I think and feel – head, heart and soul.I held nothing back.在这场公投中，我用自己知道的唯一方式，直接和满怀激情地说出我的想法和感受，全心全意，全力以赴.I was absolutely clear about my belief that Britain is stronger, safer and better off inside the European Union, and I made clear the referendum was about this and this alone not the future of any single politician, including myself.我毫不含糊地表明，我认为留在欧盟的英国更加强大和安全，我明确说明了公投的目的仅仅为此，而不是为了任何政客的未来，包括我自己、But the British people have made a very clear decision to take a different path, and as such I think the country requires fresh leadership to take it in this direction.但是英国人民做出了非常明确的决定要走上另一条道路，因此，我认为国家需要新的领导，带领大家朝着这个方向。I will do everything I can as Prime Minister to steady the ship over the coming weeks and months, but I do not think it would be right for me to try to be the captain that steers our country to its next destination.作为首相，我将尽我所能在接下来的几周或几个月，保证航船的稳定，但我认为我不再适合

担任这个船长，引领国家驶向下一个目标。This is not a decision I have taken lightly, but I do believe it is in the national interest to have a period of stability and then the new leadership required.这不是我草率做出的决定，但是，我认为一段稳定的时期和新的领导人，才符合国家利益。

There is no need for a precise timetable today, but in my view we should aim to have a new Prime Minister in place by the start of the Conservative Party Conference in October.今天没有必要说明确切的时间表，但在我看来，在十月的保守党会议上，我们应该选出一个适当的新首相。Delivering stability will be important and I will continue in post as Prime Minister with my Cabinet for the next three months.The Cabinet will meet on Monday.保证稳定将很重要，未来三个月，我将继续担任首相，内阁也将留任。内阁将在周一开会。The Governor of the Bank of England is making a statement about the steps that the Bank and the Treasury are taking to reassure financial markets.We will also continue taking forward the important legislation that we set before Parliament in the Queen’s Speech.And I have spoken to.Her Majesty the Queen this morning to advise her of the steps that I am taking.英格兰银行行长正在准备做出一份声明，建议英国央行和财政部采取安抚金融市场的行动。我们还将继续推进重要的立法，这些议程是在女王的议会讲话上设置的。我今天早上向女王陛下做了汇报，以说明我将采取的步骤。A negotiation with the European Union will need to begin under a new Prime Minister, and I think it is right that this new Prime Minister takes the decision about when to trigger article 50 and start the formal and legal process of leaving the EU.而与欧盟的谈判，需要在新首相的领导下开始，我认为应该由新首相来决定何时引用《里斯本条约》第50条，并开始离开欧盟的正式法律手续。I will attend the European Council next week to explain the decision the British people have taken and my own decision.下周我将出席欧洲理事会的会议，解释英国人民做出的决定和我自己的决定。The British people have made a choice.That not only needs to be respected but those on the losing side of the argument, myself included, should help to make it work.英国人民已经做出了选择，这不仅需要得到尊重，而且那些辩论中输掉的一方，包括我自己，应该协助脱欧成功。

Britain is a special country.We have so many great advantages.英国是一个特殊的国家，我们有许多优点。

A parliamentary democracy where we resolve great issues about our future through peaceful debate, a great trading nation, with our science and arts, our engineering and our creativity respected the world over.采用议会民主制，通过和平的辩论，解决关于我们未来的重大问题；英国是一个贸易大国，有着科学和艺术，我们的工程和创造了受到全世界的尊重.And while we are not perfect, I do believe we can be a model of a multiracial, multifaith democracy, where people can come and make a contribution and rise to the very highest that their talent allows.虽然英国并不完美，但我相信我们能成为一个多种族多信仰的民主典范，这里人们可以来做出贡献，并上升到他们才华允许的最高点。Although leaving Europe was not the path I recommended, I am the first to praise our incredible strengths.I have said before that Britain can survive outside the European Union and indeed that we could find a way.虽然离开欧盟不是我推荐的道路，我第一个来赞美英国惊人的优势。我以前说过，英国可以

在欧盟以外生存下来，事实上，我们可以找到一个方法。Now the decision has been made to leave, we need to find the best way, and I will do everything I can to help.现在已决定离开，我们需要找到最佳的办法，我会尽我所能来提供帮助。I love this country and I feel honoured to have served it.我热爱这个国家，为国家服务我感到荣幸。And I will do everything I can in future to help this great country succeed.未来，我将尽我所能，帮助这个伟大的国家取得成功。

第三篇：卡梅伦就职演讲

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

女王陛下已经授权予我组建新政府，我已接受了这一任命。

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。

在谈论新政府之前，请允许我谈一谈最近刚刚发生过的一件事情。与十年前相比，这个国家对内更加开放，对外更加富有同情心，我们都应该为此感到高兴。

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。

我谨代表这个国家，对长期致力于公共服务的前任首相深表赞扬。

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。

就未来而言，我们的议会无任何党派占明显多数，我们面临着一些深刻而紧迫的问题庞大的赤字、深刻的社会问题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。

基于这些原因，我计划在保守党和自由民主党间组建适当并充分的联盟。我想，这是为国家提供一个我认为我们非常需要的强大、稳定、完善、体面的政府的正确途径。

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·克莱格(Nick Clegg)和我都是希望撇开党派差异、为公益事业、为国家利益而努力的领导人。我认为，这是打造我们所需要的强大政府的最佳途径，是打造今天我们需要的果断的政府的最佳途径。

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。

我之所以从政，是因为我热爱这个国家，我相信最好的日子还在前面，我深信公共服务。我认为，服务国家最重要的是直面我们真正的大挑战，直面我们的问题，做出艰难的决定，并领导人民克服这些困难，这样我们就能够一起迈向更美好的明天。

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。

很明显，我们的任务之一就是重建对政治体系的信任。是的，这就要求我们清理开支、改革议会、保证对人民的管理并确保政治家始终是人们的公仆，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。

但是我相信还有其他方面。这关乎于要诚实地表现政府可能达到的业绩。真正的变革不是仅靠政府之力就能完成的。真正的变革需要所有人齐心协力、众志成城，需要我们每个人完成自己的责任，为自己，为家庭，为社会，也为其他人。

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。

我希望帮助不列颠建立一个更加有责任感的社会。在这样一个社会，我们不会只问“我们的权利是什么”，而是要问“我们的责任是什么”；在这样一个社会，我们不会只问“我应该感激谁”，而是问“我能够给与什么”。为了实现这样的社会，不管是对那些能够做到、愿意做到还是不能做到的人，我们都应该始终给与帮助。

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。

我希望你们知道，我的政府一直在照顾我们国家的老者、弱者和贫困者。我们必须让大家和我们一起面对一些我们之前曾面对过的困难决定。

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。

总而言之，这将是一个建立在有着清晰价值观上的政府——这个价值观就是自由、公平和责任。

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。

我希望我们能够打造这样一个让工作有所回报的经济体制，我希望我们能够建设一个拥有更坚固家庭、更完善社区的社会，我希望带来一个人民能够信任并且再次令人民尊敬的政治体系。

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。

这需要艰苦卓绝的工作。联合政府将面对各种各样的挑战。但是我坚信，基于这样的价值观——重建家庭、重建社区、重建我们国家的责任感，我们能够提供我们国家所需要的坚强而稳定的政府。

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

这些是我关心的事情，也是这个政府即刻开始致力于处理的事情。

Thank you。

谢谢。

第四篇：卡梅伦演讲

Visiting British Prime Minister David Cameron delivers a speech and answers questions from students in Peking University in Beijing, capital of China, Nov.10, 2010.(Xinhua/XieHuanchi)到访的英国首相卡梅伦在北京大学发表了演讲并回答了同学们的提问。

Visiting British Prime Minister David Cameron Wednesday called for a “stronger relationship” with China, saying the rise of the nation is an opportunity to other countries.到访的英国首相卡梅伦周三呼吁与中国建立更加牢固的关系，说一个国家的崛起对其他国家来说也是一次机会。

“We want a stronger relationship with China.Stronger on trade, investment and dialogue,” said Cameron while delivering a speech in Peking University.“我们想与中国在贸易，投资和对话方面建立更加牢固的关系，”卡梅伦在北京大学发表演讲时说道。

While stressing the importance of trade, he said the great thing about the bilateral relationship is that it is not just confined to economic interaction.在强调贸易的重要性的同时，他还说双边关系重要的方面不仅仅局限在经济方面。

“We have high-level dialogues on broad issues.We have a dialogue on strategic issues where we can talk about the problems of the world and a dialogue on trade and investment.I think it is important that we talk about all these issues and that we try to understand each other's values and interests.That's the way our relationship works and it works well,” the prime minister said.“在战略性问题、贸易和投资等方面我们都有高层对话，”

During Cameron's visit, the two countries held several high-level dialogues on finance, education and energy.在卡梅伦访问期间，中英两国在财政，教育和能源领域都进行了高层对话。

Cameron said he hopes China's fast development will drive comprehensive cooperation between the two countries.卡梅伦说他希望中国快速的发展能带动两国在各方面的合作。

“In the argument about how to see the rise of China, I say that it is an opportunity.I choose engagement not disengagement, dialogue not standoff, mutual benefit not zero-sum game, partnership, not protectionism,” he said.“关于怎样看待中国崛起这个问题，我认为这是一个机会。我选择合作而不是对立，对话而不是对峙，互利而不是，伙伴关系而不是保护主义”

On his first visit to China since taking office in May, Cameron brought with him a delegation of historic scale.It included 50 British entrepreneurs eager to find opportunities in China's fast growing economy.这是他五月上任以来第一次访问中国，和卡梅伦一起来的是历史上罕见的代表团，包括想从中国快速发展经济中寻找商机的五十位企业家。

On Tuesday evening, Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao had an hour-long colloquium with the entrepreneurs after his talks with Cameron.Wen said China welcomes the entrepreneurs' expanded cooperation with the country.星期二晚上，在和卡梅伦谈话过后，中国国务院总理温家宝与英国企业家举行了长达一个小时的讨论会。

“As China gets richer, it does not mean that the rest of the world will get poorer.It is simply not true that as China rises again, the world's other nations decline.Globalization is not a zero-sum game,” Cameron said.当中国变强大时并不代表其他国家就变穷了。Cameron also said Britain and China share common interests in many fields, including in fighting protectionism and in enhancing China's integration into the world economy.卡梅伦同时说英国和中国在反对贸易保护主义和许多利益拥有共同利益

第五篇：卡梅伦在北京大学演讲全文

卡梅伦今天下午在北京大学演讲之全文

David Cameron ’s speech at Beida University

China

Tuesday 9 November 2010

Twenty five years ago I came to Hong Kong as a student.The year was 1985.Deng Xiaoping and Margaret Thatcher had recently signed the historic Joint Declaration.The remarkable story of the successful handover of Hong Kong… …and the great progress Hong Kong has continued to make…

…is an example to the world of what can be achieved when two countries cooperate in confidence and with mutual respect.Since then, China has changed almost beyond recognition.China’s National Anthem famously calls on the people of China to stand up…

Qi lai qi lai(stand up, stand up)

Today the Chinese people are not just standing up in their own country… …they are standing up in the world.No longer can people talk about the global economy…

…without including the country that has grown on average ten per cent a year for three decades.No longer can we talk about trade…

…without the country that is now the world’s largest exporter and third largest importer… And no longer can we debate energy security or climate change…

…without the country that is one of the world’s biggest consumer of energy.China is on course to reclaim, later this century, its position as the world’s biggest economy… …the position it has held for 18 of the last 20 centuries.…and an achievement of which the Chinese people are justly proud.Put simply: China has re-emerged as a great global power.Threat or Opportunity

Now people can react to this in one of two ways.They can see China’s rise as a threat… …or they can see it as an opportunity.They can protect their markets from China… …or open their markets to China.They can try and shut China out…

…or welcome China in, to a new place at the top table of global affairs.There has been a change of Government in Britain and a change of Prime Minister.But on this vital point there is absolute continuity between my government and the Governments of Tony Blair and Gordon Brown.We want a strong relationship with China.Strong on trade.Strong on investment.Strong on dialogue.I made that clear as Leader of the Opposition when I visited Beijing and Chongqing three years ago.And I repeat it as Prime Minister here in China’s capital today.In the argument about how to react to the rise of China… …I say it’s an opportunity.I choose engagement not disengagement.Dialogue not stand-off.Mutual benefit, not zero-sum game.Partnership not protectionism.Britain is the country that argues most passionately for globalisation and free trade.Free trade is in our DNA.And we want trade with China.As much of it as we can get.That’s why I have with me on this visit one of the biggest and most high-powered delegations a British Prime Minister has ever led to China.Just think about some of the prizes that the rise of China could help to bring within our grasp.Strong, and sustainable growth for the global economy.Vital progress on the Doha trade round which could add $170 billion to the global economy.A real chance to get back on track towards a legally binding deal on emissions Unprecedented progress in tackling poverty.China has lifted 500 million people out of poverty in just thirty years.Although there is still a long way to go – that’s more people lifted out of poverty than at any time in human history.You can see the results right across this enormous country.When I worked in Hong Kong briefly in 1985, Shenzhen was barely more than a small town, surrounded by paddy fields and waterways.Today it is a city larger than London.It makes most of the world’s iPods and one in ten of its mobile phones.And there are other benefits too in tackling the world’s most intractable problems.I welcome the fact, for example, that more than 900 Chinese doctors now work in African countries and that in Uganda it is a Chinese pharmaceutical firm that is introducing a new anti-malarial drug.So I want to make the positive case…

…for the world to see China’s rise as an opportunity not a threat.But China needs to help us to make that argument…

…to demonstrate that as your economy grows, so do our shared interests, and our shared responsibilities.We share an interest in China’s integration into the world economy, which is essential for China’s development.If we are to maintain Europe’s openness to China, we must be able to show that China is open to Europe.So we share an interest in an international system governed by rules and norms.We share an interest in effective cooperative governance, including for the world economy.We share an interest in fighting protectionism…

…and in a co-ordinated rebalancing between surplus and deficit countries.These interests, those responsibilities are both economic and political.Let me take each in turn.Economic Responsibilities First, economic responsibilities.Let’s get straight to the point.The world economy has begun to grow again after the crisis.But that growth is very uneven.Led by China, Asia and other emerging markets are growing quickly.But in much of the advanced world growth is slow and fragile and unemployment stubbornly high.We should not be surprised at this.The crisis has damaged many advanced economies and weakened their financial sectors.They face major structural and fiscal adjustments to rebalance their economies.This is true of my own country.We know what steps we need to take to restore the public finances and rebalance our economy towards greater saving and investment and greater exports.And we have begun to take them.But for the world economy to be able to grow strongly again – and to grow without creating the dangerous economic and financial instabilities that led to the crisis, we need more than just adjustment in the advanced world.The truth is that some countries with current account surpluses have been saving too much… …while others like mine with deficits have been saving too little.And the result has been a dangerous tidal wave of money going from one side of the globe to the other.We need a more balanced pattern of global demand and supply, a more balanced pattern of global saving and investment.Now sometimes when you hear people talk about economic imbalances, it can seem as though countries that are successful at exporting are being blamed for their success.That’s absolutely not the case.We all share an interest and a responsibility to co-operate to secure strong and balanced global growth.There is no greater illustration of this than what happened to China as the western banking system collapsed…

…Chinese exports fell 12 per cent…

…growth dropped to its lowest point in more than a decade… …and some 20 million jobs were lost in the Chinese export sector.Changes in the structure of our economies will take time.What is important is that the major economies of the world have a shared vision of the path of this change: what actions countries should avoid;what actions countries need to take and, crucially, over what period it should happen.This is why the G20 – and the meeting in Seoul – is so important.Together we can agree a common approach.We can commit to the necessary actions.We can agree that we will hold each other to account.And just as China played a leading role at the G20 in helping to avert a global depression… …so it can lead now.I know from my discussions with Premier Wen how committed China is to actions to rebalance its economy.China is already talking about moving towards increased domestic consumption… …better healthcare and welfare…

… more consumer goods as its middle class grows…

…and in time introducing greater market flexibility into its exchange rate.This can not be completed overnight… …but it must happen.Let’s be clear about the risks if it does not…

…about what is at stake for China and for the UK – countries that depend on an open global economy.At the worst point of the crisis, we averted protectionism.But at a time of slow growth and high unemployment in many countries those pressures will rise again…

….already you can see them.Countries will increasingly be tempted to try to maximise their own growth and their own employment, at the expense of others.Globalisation – the force that has been so powerful in driving development and bringing huge numbers into the world economy could go into reverse.If we follow that path we will all lose out.The West would lose for sure.But so too would China.For the last two decades, trade has been a very positive factor in China’s re-emergence on the world stage.It has driven amazing growth…

…and raised the living standards of millions.Trade has helped stitch back China’s network of relations with countries across the world.We need to make sure that it does not turn into a negative factor.Just as the West wants greater access to Chinese markets… …so China wants greater access to Western markets… …and it wants market economy status in the EU too.I had very constructive talks with Premier Wen on exactly this issue yesterday.I will make the case for China to get market economy status in the EU…

…but China needs to help, by showing that it is committed to becoming more open, as it becomes more prosperous.And we need to work together to do more to protect intellectual property rights… …because this will give more businesses confidence to come and invest in China.UK companies are uniquely placed to support China’s demand for more high value goods for its consumers.Our Pavilion at the World Expo in Shanghai – which won the Gold Award for the best Pavilion design – was a showcase for so many of Britain’s strengths… …from advanced engineering to education…

…from great brands to great pharmaceutical businesses…

…from low carbon to financial services to the creative industries.In all these areas and many more, British companies and British exports can help China deliver the prosperity and progress it seeks.We can be part of China’s development strategy, just as China is part of ours.A true partnership of growth.In recent days, Britain has won new business worth billions of pounds… …involving companies across the UK and cities all over China.…including a deal between Rolls Royce and China Eastern Airlines for 16 Airbus 330 aeroengines worth £750 million…

…and inward investments worth in excess of £300 million

This is all in addition to at least £3bn of business which British companies have secured as part of the Airbus contract concluded with China last week…

…and a further £2 billion of investments by Tesco to develop new shopping malls over the next five years.And with nearly 50 of Britain’s most influential culture, education and business leaders joining me on this visit…

…I hope these deals can be just the beginning of a whole new era of bilateral trade between our countries.Achieving this would be a real win-win for our two countries.So if China is prepared to pursue further opening of its markets…

…and to work with Britain and the other G20 countries to rebalance the world economy and take steps over time towards internationalising its currency…

…that will go a long way towards helping the global economy lock in the stability it needs for strong and sustainable growth.And just as importantly, it will go a long way in securing confidence in the global community that China as an economic power is a force for good.Political Responsibilities

But China does not just have new economic power.It has new political power.And that brings new political responsibilities too.What China says – and what China does – really matters.There is barely a global issue that needs resolution, which does not beg the questions: what does China think, and how can China contribute to a solution?

China has attempted to avoid entanglement in global affairs in the past.But China’s size and global reach means that this is no longer a realistic choice.Whether it’s climate change or development, health and education or global security, China is too big and too important now not to play its part.On climate change, an international deal has to be fair.And that means that countries with different histories can’t all be expected to contribute in exactly the same way.But a fair deal also means that all countries contribute… …and all are part of an agreement.And there’s actually a huge opportunity here for China.Because China can really profit from having some of the most efficient green energy in the world.On international security, great powers have a bigger interest than anyone in preserving stability.Take development for example, China is one of the fastest growing investors in Africa… …with a vital influence over whether Africa can become a new source of growth for the world economy.We want to work together to ensure that the money we spend in Africa is not supporting corrupt and intolerant regimes.And the meeting of the UN Security Council which the British Foreign Secretary will chair later this month provides a good opportunity to step up our co-operation on Sudan.As China’s star rises again in the world, so does its stake in a stable and ordered world, in which trade flows freely.Today, China is the world’s second biggest importer of oil, and Sudan is one of your most important suppliers.So China has a direct national interest in working for stability in Sudan.And four fifths of your oil imports pass through the Malacca Straits.So like Britain and the other big trading nations, you depend on open sea lanes.And like us, your stability and prosperity depends in part on the stability and prosperity of others.Whether it’s nuclear proliferation, a global economic crisis or the rise of international terrorism, today’s threats to our security do not respect geographical boundaries.The proliferation of nuclear material endangers lives in Nanjing as well as New York.China is playing an active role in helping to prevent conflagration over North Korea.We have been working with China in the UN Security Council to keep up the pressure on Iran … …and China’s continuing role here is vital if we are to prevent Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon.In your own region, I believe China can work with us to improve the situation for the Burmese people.And China is one of the few countries that Burma will listen to on this point.But political responsibilities are not just about how one country interacts with another… …those responsibilities also apply to the way a country empowers its own people.Political Perspectives

It is undeniable that greater economic freedom has contributed to China’s growing economic strength.As China’s economy generates higher living standards and more choice for Chinese people, there is inevitably debate within China about the relationship between greater economic freedom and greater political freedom.I recognise that we approach these issues with different perspectives.I understand too that being in government is a huge challenge.I’m finding that running a country of 60 million people.So I can only begin to imagine what it is like leading a country of 1.3 billion.I realise this presents challenges of a different order of magnitude.When I came here last I was Britain’s Leader of the Opposition.Now we’ve had a General Election.It produced a Coalition Government, which combines two different political parties – the Conservatives and the Liberal Democrats – with different histories and political philosophies, working together for the good of our country.The Labour Party is now the official Opposition, with a constitutional duty to hold the new Government publicly to account.Indeed if I were not in Beijing this Wednesday afternoon, I would be preparing for my weekly session of Prime Minister’s questions in the House of Commons, where MPs question me freely about the whole range of government policy.All the time the government is subject to the rule of law.These are constraints on the government, and at times they can be frustrating when the Courts take a view with which the government differs…

…but ultimately we believe that they make our government better and our country stronger.Through the media, the public get to hear directly from people who hold different views from the government.That can be difficult at times, too.But we believe that the better informed the British public is about the issues affecting our society… …the easier it is, ultimately, for the British government to come to sensible decisions and to develop robust policies that command the confidence of our people.I make these observations not because I believe that we have some moral superiority.Our own society is not perfect.There is still injustice which we must work hard to tackle.We are far from immune from poverty and the ills that afflict every nation on earth.But in arguing for a strong relationship between our countries, I want a relationship in which we can be open with each other, in which we can have constructive dialogue of give and take in a spirit of tolerance and mutual respect.The rise in economic freedom in China in recent years has been hugely beneficial to China and to the world.I hope that in time this will lead to a greater political opening…

…because I am convinced that the best guarantor of prosperity and stability is for economic and political progress to go in step together.In some respects it already has.Ordinary Chinese people today have more freedom over where they live… …what job they do… …and where they travel… …than ever before.People blog and text more.It’s right to recognise this progress.But it’s right also that Britain should be open with China on issues where, no doubt partly because of our different history and culture, we continue to take a different view.There is no secret that we disagree on some issues, especially around human rights.We don’t raise these issues to make to us look good, or to flaunt publicly that we have done so.We raise them because the British people expect us to, and because we have sincere and deeply held concerns.And I am pleased that we have agreed the next human rights dialogue between our two governments for January.Because in the end, being able to talk through these issues – however difficult – makes our relationship stronger.Conclusion

So let me finish where I began.China’s success – and continued success – is good for Britain and good for the world.It’s not in our national interests for China to stumble… …or for the Chinese economy to suffer a reverse.We have to make the case…

….and I hope China will help us make the case…

….that as China gets richer, it does not follow that the rest of the world will get poorer.It is simply not true that as China rises again in the world, others must necessarily decline.Globalisation is not a zero sum game.If we manage things properly, if we win the arguments for free trade, if we find a way to better regulation, we can both grow together.But if we don’t, we will both suffer.I referred earlier to Britain’s Pavilion at the Shanghai Expo, “the Dandelion”

We are extremely proud that it won a coveted prize, and that it proved so popular with Chinese visitors.It is, in its way, a symbol of the strength and the potential in our relationship.Two different countries, past and future Olympic hosts, on far sides of the world, sowing the seeds of a flourishing relationship in the future, a relationship which has the potential to grow and to bloom.Proof, perhaps, that Confucius was right when he said… …“within the four seas all men are brothers” Yes, there we will be storms to weather.Yes, there will be perils to overcome.Yes, we will have to persevere.But it will be worth it – for Britain, for China and for the world.From: November 10 http://www.number10.gov.uk/
