卡梅伦的讲话为何感动英伦感动全世界？

举世瞩目的苏格兰独立公投终于落下帷幕，英国首相卡梅伦在公投结束后发表了这样一番讲话：“今天，全世界都在注视我们。苏格兰人民的各种声音，我都听到了，听进去了。你们是我们的同胞，不是我们的敌人。我们一定会重视你们的关切。我们过去可能互相抱怨，互不信任，我相信你们也是为了苏格兰的明天会更好。让我们放空自己，放下包袱，为苏格兰，为联合王国为下一代的幸福，走到一起来！感谢所有投票的同胞，感谢独立派运动领袖的君子风度，感谢大家！”

卡梅伦的讲话如此贵族气质，如此绅士风度，感动了英伦三岛：苏格兰的独立公投，没有输家，只有双赢：苏格兰赢得了自由选择的尊严，英国避免了国家分裂。

卡梅伦的贵族气质和绅士风度也感动了全世界，更启发了全世界：苏格兰独立公投的和平解决，向世界提供了一个非常有益的启发、借鉴和示范：在维护国家统一的过程中，优雅的政治文明比任何武力、暴力更有效；只要政治家和社会各方尽到努力，太多棘手的政治问题都可以通过真诚对话、平等协商的办法得到和平解决。作为现代政治文明和工业革命的发源地，曾产生过莎士比亚、洛克、牛顿、休谟、斯密、密尔、边沁、法拉第、瓦特、凯恩斯、邱吉尔、哈耶克等等世界级伟人的伟大国度，不列颠再次赢得了全世界由衷的尊重。

英国政治家和政府对苏格兰独立公投自始至终持尊重态度，也向全世界展示了优雅的政治文明和强大的制度自信，体现了一个现代文明国家对政治伦理的恪守，以及对民意的高度尊重。尽管如此，苏格兰公投期间，对以卡梅伦为首的英国政治家而言，其日子用“度日如年”来形容当不过分——如果苏格兰“离婚”成功，英国人口将减少540万，国土面积减少三分之一，其世界大国地位和影响力必然遭受严重打击。更遭的是：苏格兰一旦独立出去，难保威尔士和北爱尔兰不效仿一番。如此一来，大英帝国就真的“国将不国，民将不民”了。这就难怪卡梅伦在演讲中谈到“你们离开英国那就真的永远回不来了。苏格兰人民们，你们真的想好了吗”时，竟哽咽难言„„虽然女王发言人用轻描淡写的口吻表态：“任何认为女王想要影响公投结果的想法都是完全错误的”、“女王陛下坚信这是苏格兰人民自己的事情。”但作为一位深爱其祖国和人民的女王，其内心真实感受如何，只有上帝知道！

英国政治家和政府之所以对苏格兰的独立公投一直持尊重态度，是因为他们秉持这个政治伦理和价值观：国家的存在，是为了每个人更好地生活；国家存在的法理基础，是业经全体民众的同意。所以，决定苏格兰是否独立的权利，在于所有生活在苏格兰的人，因为那既是他们的切身利益所在，更是人之为人的一项基本权利。正因为这种理性、豁达、包容、真诚的态度，很大程度上感动了中立民众，从而避免了国家分裂的遗憾乃至悲剧。同时，使“独”派心平意和地承认公投的结果——他们的“离婚”要求，赢得了更多的政治权利，所以虽败犹胜。

苏格兰独立公投的和平解决，是世界政治文明史上值得大书特书的事件：它最重大的意义，并非分裂危机降临之时，才通过理性、豁达、包容、真诚的态度解决危机，而是揭示了这样一个道理：在一个多民族或多种族组成的国家中，唯有这样的政治伦理和价值观溶入到制度之中，这个国家才能避免分裂危机：国家的存在，是为了每个人更好地生活；国家存在的法理基础，是业经全体民众的同意；政府的权力，必须业经公民的授权；民族与民族之间；种族与种族之间；加盟共和国与加盟共和国之间，自治区域与自治区域之间，必须实现宪法和法律上的完全平等。只有这样，才是避免国家分裂的根本。换言之，未雨绸缪才至关重要！否则，当分裂问题降临时，纵然政治家和政府的态度再理性、豁达、包容、真诚，也将无际于事。——正因为如此，古今中外，举凡涉及到国家统独问题，战争几乎是唯一解决办法。苏格兰之前，在没有外力干扰条件下通过公投和平解决的统独问题的，只有挪威1905年脱离瑞典的公投，以及1993年捷克和斯洛伐克联邦“离婚”的双边公投。有鉴于此，本文结束之时，极有必要重复下面一番话：

在维护国家统一的过程中，优雅的政治文明比任何武力、暴力更有效；只要政治家和社会各方尽到努力，太多棘手的政治问题都可以通过真诚对话、平等协商的办法得到和平解决。

2016年6月卡梅伦辞职讲话全文：

Good morning everyone, 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.We should be proud of the fact that in these islands we trust the people for these big decisions.We not only have a parliamentary democracy, but on questions about the arrangements for how we've governed there are times when it is right to ask the people themselves and that is what we have done.The British people have voted to leave the European Union and their will must be respected.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 believe was the national interest and let me congratulate all those who took part in the Leave campaign for the spirited and passionate case that they made.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.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 and I would also reassure Britons living in European countries and European citizens living here 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.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.I'm very proud and very honoured to have been Prime Minister of this country for six years.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'm grateful to everyone who's helped to make that happen.I have also always believed that we have to confront big decisions, not duck them.That is why we delivered the first coalition government in 70 years, to bring our economy back from the brink.It's why we delivered a fair, legal and decisive referendum in Scotland.And it's why I made the pledge to renegotiate Britain's position in the European Union and to hold the referendum on our membership and have carried those things out.I fought this campaign in the only way I know how, which is to say directly and passionately what I think and feelnot the future of any single politician including myself.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.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.This is not a decision I've taken lightly but I do believe it's in the national interest to have a period of stability and then the new leadership required.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.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, 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.A negotiation with the European Union will need to begin under a new prime minister and I think it's 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.I will attend the European Council next week to explain the decision the British people have taken and my own decision.The British people have made a choice, that not only needs to be respected but those on the losing side of the argumentshould help to make it work.Britain is a special countrya 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.And while we are not perfect I do believe we can be a model for the multi-racial, multi-faith democracy, that people can come and make a contribution and rise to the very highest that their talent allows.Although leaving Europe was not the path I recommended, I am the first to praise our incredible strengths.I said before that Britain can survive outside the European Union and indeed that we could find a way.Now the decision has been made to leave, we need to find the best way and I will do everything I can to help.I love this country and I feel honoured to have served it and I will do everything I can in future to help this great country succeed.Thank you very much.

PM’s speech at Beida University, China

A transcript of speech given by the Prime Minister at the Beida University in China on 9 November 2010.Introduction

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.1)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.2）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.

第四篇：卡梅伦演讲

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。

第五篇：卡梅伦2016新年贺词

It's a New Year, and with our economy growing and a strong, majority government in power, Britain begins it with renewed strength.There are no New Year’s resolutions for us, just an ongoing resolve to deliver what we promised in our manifesto: Security at every stage of your life.新年之际，英国经济增长迅猛，联合政府执政能力强大，英国也掀开了新一页的篇章。新一年的决心没有其他，只希望继续履行我们在施政大纲中的承诺：确保人生各个阶段的安全。

Over 31 million people will begin this year in work, more than any in our history.Six million children will start the new term at a good or outstanding school.More than half a million workers will be taken out of income tax in April, as everyone apart from the very best paid gets a tax cut.And for the lowest paid, there will be a new National Living Wage.今年，有超过3100万的英国人要开始工作，这一数字之大前所未有。600万儿童将迈入优秀的学校开启新学期。四月份，超过50万的工人不用再交个人所得税，除了高收入人群，所有人的税收都有所减少。对于低收入人群来说，他们会得到最新的国家生活津贴。Meanwhile, millions more will benefit from the free childcare, new academies, rising pensions and extra apprenticeship that we committed to in our manifesto: all as a result of our long-term economic plan.与此同时，我们之前承诺的免费育儿、新学堂、养老金增加以及额外的见习期已使得数百万人受益，这些都是我们长期经济计划的结果。

We also promised something else in our manifesto, giving you a say on Europe and now we are delivering on that promise.There will be an in-out referendum by the end of 2017, it is written into the law of the land.I am negotiating hard to fix things that most annoy British people about our relationship with the EU.我们还在声明中向各位承诺过的一些其他事项：给予英国民众在英欧关系问题上的发言权，如今我们正在为之努力。2017年底会进行全民公投，并将其写入我国律法。针对让英国人头疼的英国与欧盟的关系这一问题，我正在同欧盟协商以解决。

There’s just one thing that drives me: What is best for the national interest of our country? But in the end it will be for you to decide.Is our economic and national security in a dangerous world better protected by being in, or out? We also go into the year confronting some deep social problems, ones that have blighted our country for too long.唯有这件事驱使着我：什么事会为国家取得最大利益？但最终，还是要你来决定。留在欧盟是否能更好地保护处于艰难境地中的英国经济及国家安全？今年我们也遭遇了许多深层的社会问题，这些问题已经困扰我们国家很久了。

I want 2016 to be the time when we really start to conquer them, a crucial year in this great turnaround decade.Because with economic renewal and social reform, we can make everyone’s lives more secure.我希望2016年会是我们开始战胜这些问题的一年，因为2016年是十年转型中的重要一年。英国政府只有加快经济复苏步伐，加大社会改革力度，英国民众的生活才更有保障。

So if you’re one of the many hardworking young people locked out of the housing market, we will deliver the homes that will help lead you to your own front door.If you’re off school or out of work, trapped in an underworld of addiction, abuse, crimes or chaos, we will sweep away state failure and help give you stability.If your dreams have been dashed simply because of who you are, we will fight discrimination and deliver real opportunity, to help lay your path to success.所以对于那些辛勤工作但至今未拥有新居的年轻人，我们为你们提供新居。如果你辍学了，或者失业了，又或受困于毒瘾、虐待、犯罪或者混乱的境遇中，我们会扫除这些障碍，给你稳定的生活。如果你们因你们的身份而使梦想破灭，我们消除歧视，为你们提供真正的平等机会帮助你们走向成功。

And we will take on another social problem, too.When our national security is threatened by a seething hatred of the West, one that turns people against their country and can even turn them into murderous extremists.I want us to be very clear: You will not defeat us.当然，我们也会着手解决另外一个社会问题。当我们的国家安全正遭受仇视西方情绪的威胁——这种厌恶会使得人们与自己的国家对立，甚至把他们变成喜爱杀戮的极端分子。我希望大家清楚：我们是无法被击败的！

And we will not just confront the violence and the terror.We will take on their underlying, poisonous narrative of grievance and resentment.We will come down hard on those who create the conditions for that narrative to flourish.我们面临的不仅仅是暴力和恐惧。我们还要打击愤懑和憎恶四下潜伏、负能量满满的思潮。我们将强烈打击那些为这种思潮滋长创造条件的人。And we will have greater confidence in, indeed, we will revel i , our way of life.Because if you walk our streets, learn in our schools, benefit from our society, you sign up to our values: Freedom, Tolerance, Responsibility, Loyalty.对于我们的生活方式，我们更为自信甚至更为享受。因为如果你走在大街上，在学校学习或者受益于社会，那就证明你接受了我们的价值观：自由，宽容，责任和忠诚。

These are the big challenges of our age, some of the biggest our nation has ever faced.And this year is a test of our mettle.Whether we put up with poverty, or put an end to it, ignore the glass ceiling, or smash it, abandon the tenant, or help make them a homeowner, appease the extremist or take apart their ideology, piece by piece.We’ll get Britain a better deal in Europe, give families the peace of mind they crave, and we’ll make our country even more secure.That’s what this year, this turnaround decade, is all about.我们的时代正面临着巨大的挑战，有些挑战是前所未有的。2016年是“考验我们气魄”的一年。不论我们是忍受贫穷还是结束贫穷，不论我们是忽视“玻璃天花板”效应（是指在公司企业和机关团体中，限制某些人口群体（女性、少数民族）晋升到高级职位的障碍）还是粉碎它，不论我们是置租房人员于不顾还是帮他们购置房产，不论我们是安抚极端分子还是粉碎他们的意识形态，我们都会在欧洲为英国争取更多利益，让每个家庭都能获得心灵上的安宁，我们还要让国家更为安宁。这就是我们今年，这一转型的十年中要做的事。

So let me wish everyone the very best and a very Happy New Year.祝福每一个人，新年快乐！
