PM’s Speech at Olympics Press Conference

Thursday 26 July 2012

It gives me great pride to welcome you all to London on this truly momentous day for our country.Seven years of waiting, planning, building and dreaming are almost over.Tomorrow the curtain comes up, the spectators arrive and the Olympic and Paralympic Games 2012 can officially begin.I want to set out three things you’re going to see over the coming weeks.Number one: you’re going to see beyond doubt that Britain can deliver.We’ve delivered this incredible Olympic Park on time, on budget and in real style.46,000 people have turned a wasteland the size of Hyde Park into an extraordinary city town within one of the world’s most exciting cities.Millions of cubic metres of soil have been excavated.Eight kilometres of waterways have been laid.A stadium, an aquatics centre, a velodrome have been built.According to Jacques Rogge, the athletes are ecstatic with the training venues – and he likes the facilities so much he’s staying here.All around the park a new transport network has taken shape.Dozens of underground stations have been upgraded, capacity has massively increased and all of it is being overseen by a state-of-the-art Transport Co-ordination Centre.And what’s so great about these Games is that we’ve built not just for the coming weeks – but the coming decades.When all the fireworks have died down and the athletes have gone home there is going to be a genuine legacy.A physical legacy – with a new quarter of London for people to live and work in.An economic legacy – with businesses getting a big international boost to trade.And a sporting legacy – with people all over the country inspired to get active and get into sport.So we’re delivering a world-class Games, a well-connected Games – and above all a secure Games.Our absolute top priority is keeping people safe.I have personally chaired regular security meetings in the run-up to this and I’m pleased to tell you that all plans – including detailed contingency plans – are in place.There are extra police on the streets of London, in the skies above and in the waters of the Thames.We’ve got our intelligence services working round the clock.And I am proud too that we have some of our finest men and women – our armed forces – guarding the Olympics venues.This is the biggest security operation in our peacetime history, bar none, and we are leaving nothing to chance.All of this goes to show what we can achieve as a country.And it sends out this powerful message to the world: If you’re looking for a great place to do business, to invest, to work, to study, to visit – then look no further than Great Britain.The second thing you’re going to see here is a real sense of community.We always said the success of these Games wasn’t just about what Government does or what business does – it’s about our people and the welcome they give to the world.We want this to be the friendly Games – and already we’re seeing that.When the call went out for Olympics volunteers, a quarter of a million people came forward.70,000 of them were chosen.On top of that, 8000 Londoners are acting as Ambassadors for this city.Between them they are volunteering for 8 million hours.So this is not a state-run Games, it’s a people-run Games.It’s about the people of the UK showing a really warm welcome – and showing respect to all the teams and nationalities who come here.On that note, it’s right that in 2012 – 40 years on from the Munich Olympics – we remember the Israeli team members who were killed there.We will be properly marking the anniversary of that tragedy with a special commemoration and every day of these Games we’ll be demonstrating that there is no more diverse, more open, more tolerant city in the world than this one.The third – and most important – thing you’re going to see and feel over these coming weeks is that infectious spirit of the Olympic and Paralympic Games.Beyond all the grand ceremonies and great displays, we’ve got to remember what this is all about.The athletes up at dawn to train.The swimmers in the pool day-in, day-out for years.The children who dream and make it big.The people who come from nothing to represent their nation.Their efforts are the heart of this Games.Right at the heart of the Village, the words of the British poet Tennyson have been engraved.They read: ‘To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.’ It’s about never giving up, pushing yourself to the limits, relentlessly pursuing glory and greatness – the best of human endeavour.And it’s this spirit that is going to shine out from London.We want this to be the Games that lifts up a city, that lifts up our country and that lifts up our world, bringing people together.So we are delighted to host you here in London today and I hope you have a fantastic Games over the coming weeks.

第二篇：英国首相卡梅伦

2011年5月25日，奥巴马与英国首相卡梅伦在伦敦记者会上的讲话：

PRIME MINISTER CAMERON: Thank you, and apologies for keeping you waiting.It's a pleasure to welcome President Obama here today.We've just been having a barbecue in the gardens of Number 10 Downing Street with some of our service--armed-service personnel from the United States and from the UK.And it was a great reminder of the incredible debt that we owe all of them and their families for their service, for their sacrifice, for all they do to keep us safe.It was a great event and it was wonderful to have Barack and Michelle there.It was also probably the first time in history, as we stood behind that barbecue, that I can say a British Prime Minister has given an American President a bit of a grilling.So I'm going to hold onto that.Over the past year I've got to know the President well.And whether it's in routine situations like sitting round the G8 table, or the slightly less routine of getting a phone call in the middle of the night, I've come to value not just his leadership and courage, but the fact that to all the big international issues of our time, he brings thoughtful consideration and reason.And I know that today, Mr.President, you'll be thinking of the dreadful tornado in Missouri and all those who've lost livelihoods and lost their lives and loved ones.And our hearts in Britain go out to all those people, too.Barack and I know well the shared history of our countries.From the beaches of Normandy to the Imjin River, our soldiers have fought together.From labs in Cambridge, Massachusetts, to Cambridge, England, our scientists have decoded DNA and cured diseases together.And in millions of interactions every day, including our massive business relationship, our people forge friendships together.That is what makes this relationship special.But what makes it essential is that it's not just about history or sentiment;it is a living, working partnership.It is essential to our security and it's essential for our prosperity.And I feel every day just how important this partnership is.The President and I, together with my Deputy Prime Minister, have just had some excellent discussions.We've been talking today about the two things we care about most--getting our people jobs and keeping our people safe.Because every night millions of British and American people take the same worries to bed with them.They're asking if they can find a good job, if they're going to get a paycheck next month, and if there will be work for their children when they grow up.The stark truth of the world today is that no country is owed a living.We've got to pay our way and we've got to earn our way.And that is what the President and I are determined to do.Barack and I did not come into politics to cut public spending, but neither did we seek office to see our great economies decline or to land our children with unsustainable debts.And that is why in the second half of this decade, we're making sure that debt ratios will be falling on both sides of the Atlantic.At the same time, we're investing in our roads and railways, in science and innovation, and above all, in our young people.And down the line, the success of all this won't be measured in export figures or trade flows;it will be in the feelings of the factory worker, whether they're in Phoenix or the shopkeeper in Liverpool or the engineer in Ohio--the people who know if they work hard, then prosperity will be there for them and the promise of a better life there for their children.As well as the economy, the President and I had some very good discussions on security.Now, Americans and Brits, you don't need to explain terrorism to one another.Both our people have suffered at its hands, and indeed they have died together.My wife Samantha was in Manhattan on 9/11, and I'll never forget the five hours of trying to get hold of her.And she'll never forget the New Yorkers that she met that day or the sense of solidarity that she felt that day and that we have felt ever since that day.And today, as we come up to its tenth anniversary, we should remember the spirit of that city and the sympathy we feel with those who lost their loved ones.Now, there are those who say that this terrorist threat is beyond our control, and we passionately believe that is wrong.We can defeat al Qaeda, and the events of recent months give us an opportunity to turn the tide on their terror once and for all.I believe there are three actions we must take.First, we must continue to destroy their terrorist network, and I congratulate the President on his operation against bin Laden.This was not just a victory for justice, but a strike right at the heart of international terrorism.In this vital effort, we must continue to work with Pakistan.People are asking about our relationship, so we need to be clear.Pakistan has suffered more from terrorism than any country in the world.Their enemy is our enemy.So, far from walking away, we've got to work even more closely with them.At the same time, this is a vital year in Afghanistan.British and American forces are fighting side by side in Helmand, right at the heart of this operation.We've broken the momentum of the insurgency, and even in the Taliban's heartland, in Kandahar and central Helmand, they're on the back foot.Now is the moment to step up our efforts to reach a political settlement.The Taliban must make a decisive split from al Qaeda, give up violence, and join a political process that will bring lasting peace to that country.We are agreed to give this the highest priority in the months ahead.Second, we must reach a conclusion to the Arab-Israel peace process.Again, I congratulated the President on his recent speech on the Middle East, which was bold, it was visionary, and it set out what is needed in the clearest possible terms--an end to terror against Israelis and the restoration of dignity to the Palestinians;two states living side by side and in peace.Yes, the road has been, and will be, long and arduous, but the prize is clear.Conclude the peace process and you don't just bring security to the region;you deny extremists one of their most profound and enduring recruiting sergeants, weakening their calling and crippling their cause.That is why whatever the difficulties, we must continue to press for a solution.Our third action must be to help elevate the changes in North Africa and the Arab world from a moment in history to a turning point in history.We've seen some extraordinary things--protesters braving bullets, bloggers toppling dictators, people taking to the streets and making their own history.If global politics is about spreading peace and prosperity, then this is a once-in-a-generation moment to grab hold of.It is not a time for us to shrink back and think about our own issues and interests.This is our issue and this is massively in our interests.Those people in Tahrir Square and Tripoli just want what we have--a job and a voice.And we all share in their success or failure.If they succeed, there is new hope for those living there and there is the hope of a better and safer world for all of us.But if they fail, if that hunger is denied, then some young people in that region will continue to listen to the poisonous narrative of extremism.So the President and I are agreed we will stand with those who work for freedom.This is the message we'll take to the G8 tomorrow when we push for a major program of economic and political support for those countries seeking reform.And this is why we mobilized the international community to protect the Libyan people from Colonel Qaddafi's regime, why we'll continue to enforce U.N.resolutions with our allies, and why we restate our position once more: It is impossible to imagine a future for Libya with Qaddafi still in power.He must go.In all of these actions, we must be clear about our ambitions.Barack and I came of age in the 1980s and '90s.We saw the end of the Cold War and the victory over communism.We saw the invasion of Kuwait by Saddam Hussein and the world coming together to liberate that country.Throughout it all, we saw Presidents and Prime Ministers standing together for freedom.Today, we feel just as passionately about extending freedom as those who came before us;but we also know that idealism without realism does no good for anyone.We have learned the lessons of history.Democracy is built from the ground up.You've got to work with the grain of other cultures, and not against them.Real change takes time.And it's because of this we share the view that our partnership will not just continue, but it will get stronger.And this is a partnership that goes beyond foreign affairs.At home, we have similar goals--to bring more responsibility to our societies, and to bring transparency and accountability to our governments.In all these ambitions, our countries will continue to learn from each other and work with each other.And as ever, it has been a pleasure to talk to the President, and an honor to have him with us today.Mr.President.

第三篇：英国首相卡梅伦2014新年致辞[推荐]

It’s a New Year – and for Britain there can only be one New Year’s resolution: to stick to the long-term plan that is turning our country around.新的一年到来了，对英国人民来说我们只有一个新年目标，那就是坚持长期计划，让英国走出经济低谷。

When we came to office, our economy was on its knees.Three and a half years later, we are turning a corner.We see it in the businesses that are opening up, the people who are getting decent jobs, the factories that are making British goods and selling them to the world again.The plan is working.曾经在我上台的时候，我国的经济几乎处于瘫痪状态。三年半之后的今天，我们正处在一个转折点。企业拓展着新的业务，人们逐渐都找到体面的工作，生产英国产品的工厂恢复其世界市场的销售，这些都能够让我们看到经济转折的趋势。我们的计划起作用了。

That’s why this year, 2014, we are not just going to stick to the plan – we are going to re-double our efforts to deliver every part of it, to benefit the whole country and secure a better future for everyone.这就是为什么，在新的一年我们不仅仅要坚持这项计划，我们要付出双倍的努力来实现计划的每一个部分，为整个国家谋福利，为每一位国民创造一个更美好的未来。

We’ll continue with the vital work on the deficit.We’ve reduced it by a third already and this year we will continue that difficult work, to safeguard our economy for the long-term, keep mortgage rates low and help families across Britain.We’re going to keep on doing everything possible to help hardworking people feel financially secure cutting income taxes and freezing fuel duty.我们将继续重视解决赤字问题。我们已经将赤字问题减少了三分之一。今年我们将继续进行这项艰难的工作，以保证长期的经济安全，保持低水平的抵押贷款利率，帮助全英国的家庭。我们将继续尽最大努力，帮助勤劳的人们获得财产安全感，削减收入所得税，冻结燃料税。

We’ll keep on working even harder to create more jobs, whether that’s through investment in our roads and railways, lower jobs taxes, or more help for Britain’s amazing small businesses.Those who run our small businesses are heroes and heroines, they are the backbone of our economy and we are supporting them every step of the way.我们将更加努力，通过各种方式创造更多的工作机会，如进行公路铁路投资、降低工作税收，或者鼓励支持英国出色的小型企业。小型企业的运营者是我们的国民英雄，是我国经济的支柱。在小型企业运转的每一步骤，我们都会给予大力支持。

We are going to keep on with our vital work on welfare and immigration too.We’ve already capped welfare and cut immigration and this year, we’ll carry on building an economy for people who work hard and play by the rules.And last but not least – we’re going to keep on delivering the best schools and skills for our children and young people so that when they leave education they have a real chance to get on in life.So this is a vital year for our economy.我们也会继续福利和移民方面的重要工作。我们已经限制福利和移民数量。今年，我们会继续为那些努力工作、遵守规则的人们创建更好的经济条件。最后，我们将继续为孩子们及年轻人提供最好的学校和技能，这一点至关重要。这样，在他们结束教育的时候，就能真正拥有开启新生活的机会。总之，今年对我国经济来说是非常重要的一年。

And 2014 is also an important date in the history of the United Kingdom.The referendum vote will be the biggest decision Scotland has ever been asked to make.The outcome matters to all of us, wherever we live in the UK.This is not a vote for the next few years, but a vote that could change our country forever.Our family of nations is at its best when we work together with shared interest and common purpose.This year, let the message go out from England, Wales and Northern Ireland to everyone in Scotland: we want you to stay – and together we can build an even stronger United Kingdom for our children and grandchildren.That’s what our long-term plan is about and we will stick to that plan this year.2014年也是英国历史上一个重要的日期。这一次全民公决将是苏格兰做过的最大的决定。公决的结果对我们每个人来说都很重要，无论我们住在英国的哪里。这次公决不仅会影响接下来几年的发展，而且可能永远改变我们的国家。我们是一个多民族的大家庭，如果大家齐心协力、利益相通、目标一致，那将是我们最好的时候。今年，希望这个消息可以从英格兰、威尔士和北爱尔兰传递到苏格兰的每个人耳中，我们想让你们留下来，为了我们的孩子和子孙后代，一起建立一个更加富强的英国。这就是我们的长期计划重点所在，今年我们将坚持这项计划。

I’d like to wish everyone a happy New Year – and best wishes for 2014.祝大家新年快乐！2014年，送上我最好的祝愿！

第五篇：英国首相卡梅伦演讲稿

英国新首相戴维卡梅伦就职演说，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。

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。

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。

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。

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。

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。

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。

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。

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。

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。

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。

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。

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

Thank you。
