6.卡梅伦就职演说
Before I talk about that new government, let me say something about the one that has just passed.
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。
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 and 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.
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。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, 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.
基于这些房、囚,我计划在保守党和自由民主党之间组建适合的联盟。
