in 20** we said goodbye to harry patch, the last survivor of the generation of soldiers who risked their lives for britain in the great war. as we mourned him, we remembered too all those who have laid down their lives in the defence of this country we love.
last year was particularly tough for our forces in afghanistan, and we face some more difficult months ahead. in late december we were reminded at this decade’s end, just as we were at its beginning, that there is a terrorist threat which puts our safety and security at risk and which requires us to take on al qaeda and the taliban at the epicentre of global terrorism - which is the mountains of afghanistan and pakistan.
and while progress is difficult, i am working every day and will continue to step up our efforts with no let-up to disrupt the ability of terrorists to mount attacks on britain, and to work with other countries to prevent terrorism on our streets. this will have my relentless focus in 20**, just as afghanistan will have. we will steadily be giving more control of afghanistan to afghan troops and police.
as we enter a new decade, i will continue to do what is necessary to protect and improve this great country in the interests of all the people of britain.
in my life, i have learnt that there are only really two kinds of people - those who think things can never change, and those who believe they have to. and i think the vast majority of people are in the second camp. we are a nation that looks to the future, combining responsibility with fairness, compassion with aspiration - always reaching higher, dreaming bigger, aiming for even greater things.
there are some who say we must plan for a decade of austerity. if that happened it would also be a decade of unfairness where, while the privileged few can protect themselves, the majority lose out. i believe we can create a new decade of prosperity with opportunities fairly shared amongst all those who work hard and play by the rules. that is why we are fighting so hard to secure and sustain britain’ 本文章共2页,当前在第1页 [1] [2] 下一页
the last 18 months have been difficult, and too many people were hit by a crisis that originated in the us housing market and then came rolling across the atlantic towards us - a crisis that hit britain hard because the financial sector is such an important part of our economy. but this is a nation of fighters and believer
s who meet each challenge with strength and sacrifice. we fought back against recession because we stood together and did not leave people isolated to face a difficult future on their own.
britain has learnt the bitter lessons of previous recessions - and that’s why this government was not prepared to see whole communities decimated by worklessness, with towns losing not just their incomes but their identities. we were not willing to lose a generation of young people to unemployment, with their hopes shattered even before their life’s journey had begun. and we were not going to tolerate decent people doing an honest days work losing their businesses and their family homes because it was impossible for them to make ends meet. and so we chose to intervene and not pass on by - and if the experience of the last recession had been repeated, people’s chances of having a job would have been four times worse after they became unemployed, repossessions twice as bad and company insolvencies two and a half times worse.
