英国首相卡梅伦2019年新年英语演讲稿Its 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 Years resolutions for us, just an ongoing resolve to deliver what wepromised.Security – at every stage of your life.Over 31 million people will begin the 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 fromthe very best paid gets a tax cut and, for the lowest paid, there will be a new National LivingWage.Meanwhile, millions more will benefit from the free childcare, new academies, rising pensionsand extra apprenticeships that we committed to in our manifesto, all as a result of our long-term economic plan.We also promised something else in our manifesto: giving you a say on Europe. Now we aredelivering on that promise. There will be an in-out referendum by the end of 2019 – it iswritten into the law of the land. I am negotiating hard to fix the things that most annoy Britishpeople about our relationship with the EU.There is 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 dangerousworld better protected by being in, or out?We also go into the year confronting some deep social problems, ones that have blighted ourcountry for too long.I want 2019 to be the time when we really start to conquer them – a crucial year in this greatturnaround decade.Because with economic renewal and social reform, we can make everyones lives moresecure.So if youre one of the many hard-working young people locked out of the housing market, wewill deliver the homes that will help lead you to your own front door.If youre off school or out of work, trapped in an underworld of addiction, abuse, crime andchaos, 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 discriminationand deliver real opportunity, to help lay your path to success.And we will take on another social problem, too.When our national security is threatened by a seething hatred of the west, one that turnspeople against their country and can even turn them into murderous extremists. I want us tobe very clear: you will not defeat us. And we will not just confront the violence and theterror.We will take on their underlying, poisonous narrative of grievance and resentment. Wewill come down hard on those who create the conditions for that narrative to flourish. And wewill have greater confidence in – indeed, we will revel in – our way of life.Because if you walk our streets, learn in our schools, benefit from our society, you sign up toour values: freedom; tolerance; responsibility; loyalty.These are the big challenges of our age, some of the biggest our nation has ever faced. And thisyear 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 takeapart their ideology, piece by piece.Well get Britain a better deal in Europe, give families the peace of mind they crave a
