Good afternoon

下午好

I have just been to see Her Majesty the Queen who has invited me to form a government and I have accepted

我剛剛覲見了女王陛下，并接受了她委以的重任組建新一屆政府。

I pay tribute to the fortitude and patience of my predecessor

我對前任首相的堅韌與耐心

and her deep sense of public service

以及她深厚的公共服務(wù)意識致以崇高的敬意

but in spite of all her efforts it has become clear that there are pessimists at home and abroad

然而，盡管她做出了種種努力，國內(nèi)外明顯還有很多悲觀主義者

who think that after three years of indecision

他們認為，在經(jīng)過了三年的猶豫不決之后

that this country has become a prisoner to the old arguments of 2016

英國已完全被2016年脫歐公投所束縛

and that in this home of democracy we are incapable of honouring a basic democratic mandate

在這個民主的國度，我們卻無法履行基本的民主使命

And so I am standing before you today to tell you

所以，今天我站在你們面前，想要告訴你們

the British people

所有英國人

that those critics are wrong

那些批評者都是錯的

The doubters,the doomsters,the gloomsters–they are going to get it wrong again

懷疑者、毀滅論者、悲觀論者，他們還會再一次犯錯

The people who bet against Britain are going to lose their shirts

那些打賭說英國會輸?shù)靡粩⊥康氐娜?/p>

because we are going to restore trust in our democracy

因為我們將要重建人們對民主的信任

and we are going to fulfil the repeated promises of parliament to the people and come out of the EU on October 31

我們將履行議會向人們多次做出的承諾，在10月31日離開歐盟

no ifs or buts

沒有任何借口

and we will do a new deal,a better deal that will maximise the opportunities of Brexit while allowing us to develop a new and exciting partnership with the rest of Europe based on free trade and mutual support

我們還將達成一項新的協(xié)議，一項更好的協(xié)議，能讓英國脫歐的機會最大化，同時讓我們在自由貿(mào)易和相互支持的基礎(chǔ)上，與歐洲其他國家發(fā)展全新的、令人振奮的伙伴關(guān)系

I have every confidence that in 99 days’time we will have cracked it

我完全有信心99天以后我們能實現(xiàn)這一切

but you know what–we aren’t going to wait 99 days

但是，我們不會等99天那么久

because the British people have had enough of waiting

The time has come to act,

是時候采取行動

to take decisions

做出決定

to give strong leadership and to change this country for the better

強有力地領(lǐng)導及更好地改變這個國家

and though the Queen has just honoured me with this extraordinary office of state

盡管女王陛下剛剛授予了我這個無上榮耀的職務(wù)

my job is to serve you,the people

我的工作是為英國民眾服務(wù)

because if there is one point we politicians need to remember it is that the people are our bosses

因為我們這些政治家需要時刻銘記的一點就是，人民至上

My job is to make your streets safer–and we are going to begin with another 20,000 police on the streets

我的工作，是讓你們的居住環(huán)境更加安全——首先我們將在街區(qū)增調(diào)兩萬名警察

and we start recruiting forthwith

征募工作也將立即開啟

My job is to make sure you don’t have to wait 3 weeks to see your GP

我的工作，是保證你們不需要等三個星期才能見到你的全科醫(yī)生

and we start work this week with 20 new hospital upgrades,and ensuring that money for the NHS really does get to the front line

本周我們就開始對20家新醫(yī)院進行升級，確保英國國民醫(yī)療服務(wù)體系的資金真正用到實處

My job is to protect you or your parents or grandparents from the fear of having to sell your home to pay for the costs of care

我的工作，是讓你、你的父母或祖父母不再擔心需要通過變賣房產(chǎn)來支付醫(yī)療費

and so I am announcing now–on the steps of Downing Street–that we will fix the crisis in social care once and for all with a clear plan we have prepared

因此，我在此宣布，我們已起草了一項明確的計劃，將徹底解決社會關(guān)懷方面的危機

to give every older person the dignity and security they deserve

使老人們能有尊嚴和安全地安享晚年

My job is to make sure your kids get a superb education wherever they are in the country

我的工作，是確保你的孩子在這個國家的任何地方都能受到優(yōu)質(zhì)的教育

and that’s why we have already announced that we are going to level up per pupil funding in primary and secondary schools

這就是為什么我們已經(jīng)宣布，將提高對每一名中小學學生的資助水平

and that is the work that begins immediately behind that black door

and though I am today building a great team of men and women I will take personal responsibility

盡管我正在組建一支優(yōu)秀的團隊

for the change I want to see

但我也會為我所希望看到的改變承擔個人責任

Never mind the backstop–the buck stops here

我將責無旁貸

And I will tell you something else about my job

另外，我再補充一下我的工作

It is to be Prime Minister of the whole United Kingdom

這個工作是，成為整個英國的首相

and that means uniting our country

也就意味著，我的職責是，團結(jié)我們的國家

and the left behind towns by physically and literally renewing the ties that bind us together

通過在實際操作層面和書面上重塑英國人民之間的紐帶

so that with safer streets and better education and fantastic new road and rail infrastructure and full fibre broadband

提高工資標準、生活保障，提高生產(chǎn)力

we close the opportunity gap

and giving business the confidence to invest across the UK

because it is time we unleashed the productive power not just of London and the South East

but of every corner of England,Scotland,Wales and Northern Ireland

而且還要解放英格蘭、蘇格蘭、威爾士和北愛爾蘭每一個角落的生產(chǎn)力

and whose brand and political personality is admired and even loved around the world

他們所展現(xiàn)的形象和政治人格也受到了全世界的欽佩和喜愛

for our inventiveness,for our humour,for our universities,our scientists,our armed forces,our diplomacy

這份欽佩和喜愛源于我們的創(chuàng)造力、我們的幽默感、我們的大學教育、我們的科學家、我們的武裝力量、我們的外交政策

和我們所堅持的平等理念——對不同種族、不同性別和LGBT人群一視同仁，對世界上每個女孩都應(yīng)接受12年優(yōu)質(zhì)教育的權(quán)利的尊重

and for the values we stand for around the world

以及在這個世界上我們所代表的價值觀

Everyone knows the values that flag represents

每個人都知道這面國旗所代表的價值

It stands for freedom and free speech and habeas corpus and the rule of law

它代表著自由和言論自由，代表著人身保護和法治

and above all it stands for democracy

最重要的是，它代表著民主

and that is why we will come out of the EU on October 31

這也是我們將于10月31日脫歐的原因

because in the end Brexit was a fundamental decision by the British people that they wanted their laws made by people that they can elect

因為歸根結(jié)底，脫歐是英國人民的一項基本決定，他們希望英國的法律由他們選出的人來制定

and they can remove from office

同時這個人的去留也將由他們自己來決定

and we must now respect that decision

我們現(xiàn)在必須尊重這一決定

and create a new partnership with our European friends–as warm and as close and as affectionate as possible

and I say directly to you–thank you for your contribution to our society

I am convinced that we can do a deal without checks at the Irish border,

我相信我們能夠達成協(xié)議，不在愛爾蘭邊境設(shè)立關(guān)卡

because we refuse under any circumstances to have such checks

因為在任何情況下我們都反對設(shè)立關(guān)卡

and yet without that anti-democratic backstop

我們還沒有反民主的后備方案

and it is of course vital at the same time that we prepare for the remote possibility

我們當然必須要做好萬全準備

that Brussels refuses any further to negotiate

以應(yīng)對由于布魯塞爾拒絕進一步談判

and we are forced to come out with no deal

導致我們被迫無協(xié)議脫歐的可能性

not because we want that outcome–of course not

我們當然不想要這樣的結(jié)果

but because it is only common sense to prepare

但是要做好準備，因為這只是一個常識

and let me stress that there is a vital sense in which those preparations cannot be wasted

我想強調(diào)重要的一點，那就是這些準備工作不會白費

and that is because under any circumstances we will need to get ready

at some point in the near future

fully determined at last to take advantage of brexit

ever more not just here but around the world

and don’t forget that in the event of a no deal outcome we will have the extra lubrication of the ￡39 bn

I say yes–there will be difficulties

我想說，沒錯，我們將會面對很多困難

though I believe that with energy and application they will be far less serious than some have claimed

but if there is one thing that has really sapped the confidence of business over the last three years

但在過去三年中，商界的信心減弱了

it is not the decisions we have taken

這并不是因為我們已經(jīng)做出的決定

it is our refusal to take decisions

而是因為我們拒絕去做選擇

and to all those who say we cannot be ready

而對那些說我們無法做好準備的人

I say do not underestimate this country

我想說，不要低估這個國家
