正方反方大PK:盘点苏格兰独立的十个理由(双语)

　　YES

　　You would like to get the opportunity to move more responsibilities to a more local Scottish Democracy instead of accept the fate of Westminster's plans? With all the powers moved to Scotland, we can make a fairer Scotland。

　　你将可能有机会参与苏格兰当地的民主建设，而不是被动等待英国政府的决策。如果把所有权力都移交给苏格兰，那么我们就能建立一个更加公平的苏格兰。

　　NO

　　Some believe that sometimes things are just bigger than us. As a country with only 5 million residents, England seems more equipped to deal with the more difficult responsibilities, like defense and taxation. Although other small countries in Europe seem to thrive, the 'Scandinavian model' might not work for wee Scotland。

　　有时候有些人会认为有些事情比我们自己更重要。作为一个只有500万居民的国家，英格兰似乎更有资格承担如防御、税收等这样艰巨的责任。虽然欧洲的一些小国家似乎发展繁荣，但斯堪地那维亚模式可能并不适合苏格兰。

　　YES

　　The Tories are in power in the UK, although the majority of Scots have chosen the opposition. The Scots are outnumbered ten to one, so whatever government the Scots will vote for in a UK General Election, it's highly unlikely that a Scottish Political Party will ever be part of a UK Government representing Scotland's needs. With the rising votes for UKIP in England, our goals towards a fair and harmonious society will diminish even further。

　　目前保守党执政整个英国，但大部分苏格兰人对此表示反对。由于苏格兰人口比例只占十分之一，所以在英国普选时无论他们支持谁，都不可能使代表他们需求的苏格兰政党成为英国政府的一部分。随着英国独立党在英格兰的支持者越来越多，我们想要建设一个公正和谐的社会的希望也越来越渺茫。

　　NO

　　You are happy with a Tory Government or perhaps even a future UKIP Government at Westminster. You believe that the choices made by the UK Government in the past have been in the interest of Scotland. You also trust the Westminster's politicians to give Scotland more powers in the future。

　　你赞成保守党政府，或者赞成将来的英国独立党政府。你相信英国政府以前做出的决定都考虑到了苏格兰的利益。你还相信英国政府以后会给予苏格兰更多的权利。

　　　YES

　　We should stop building Nuclear Weapons in Scotland, it is unethical and morally wrong. Under "The Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons" the UK expects all other countries to sign this agreement to disarm Nuclear Weapons, but has excluded itself. Under the treaty it continues to build more Nuclear Weapons in Scotland. If you believe in peace instead of war, let's stop building weapons of mass destruction and start caring for the people and the planet。

　　我们应该停止在苏格兰制造核武器，这是不正确的、不道德的。英国希望所有其他国家都签署同意“不扩散核武器条约”，可唯独自己不签署，并继续在苏格兰制造更多的核武器。如果你想要和平而不是战争，那么让我们一起来停止制造大规模杀伤性武器，一起开始关注人类和地球。

　　　NO

　　For some the world seems more threatening every day. You may find it true that by building Nuclear Weapons we are more able to protect ourselves against our common enemies. Britain has made the world a safer place with the wars of the past and showing its weapons of mass destruction。

　　对一些人来说，这个世界每天都充满了威胁。你可能会觉得制造核武器能够使我们更好地保护自己免受侵害。无论是以前参与战争，还是现在展示大规模杀伤性武器，英国的目的都是为了让世界更加和平。

　　　YES

　　Scotland's Oil reserves are vast. Most of the revenue and tax made from Oil goes directly to Westminster. There are claims that Scotland will be one of the wealthiest nations in Europe if we become independent。

　　苏格兰的石油储量非常大。但是该方面收入得到的大部分税款都直接交给了英国政府。如果我们独立了，苏格兰就有可能成为欧洲最富裕的国家之一。

　　NO

　　The vast income and revenue from oil in the Scottish part of the North Sea is too much to spend for a small country as Scotland. We can easily share these resources and benefit both from the wealth and revenue。

　　苏格兰北海地区的石油所带来的巨大收入和税款对苏格兰这样一个小国家来说实在是太多了。我们应该共享资源、共享从中取得的利益。

　　YES

　　Scotland has the resources and finances to become independent. One of the early myths created by the No Campaign has been debunked and even the Unionists agree that Scotland has what it takes to become independent and the Scottish people will be better off financially。

　　苏格兰有可以独立的资源和资金。早期由反对独立的人编造的传言也被揭穿了，现在就连联盟主义者都认为苏格兰有独立的经济条件，苏格兰人民独立后会更加富裕。

　　　NO

　　The EU doesn't seem beneficial for the UK and the UK may decide to withdraw from the EU altogether. The UK should become independent of the EU again. The EU doesn't have our interests at heart and we give more to the EU than we get back。

　　欧盟似乎对英国没有什么益处，而英国似乎也决定要退出欧盟。英国应该重新独立于欧盟之外。欧盟并不十分在乎我们的利益，而我们给与欧盟的比从欧盟得到的要多。

　　　YES

　　With an ever rising energy and electricity demand in Europe, Scotland could be one of the global leading suppliers. Scotland has many natural resources that allow sustainable energy for which more jobs are created. Furthermore when Scotland becomes Independent, many centralized services and offices, like Tax Offices, DVLA etc have to be set up in Scotland. This will create many jobs and jobs provide an income, which is good for the economy and beneficial for us all。

　　由于欧洲对能源和电力的需求越来越大，苏格兰有可能成为全球主要的供应商之一。苏格兰拥有很多自然资源，能够提供可持续发展的能源，并创造更多的工作机会。而且，苏格兰独立后，许多集中服务和办公场所如税务局、汽车与车辆牌照局都会落户苏格兰。这会产生很多工作机会，而工作会带来收入，这对经济和我们自己都是有利的。加拿大华人网 http://www.sinoca.com/
