With most polls putting the Conservatives in third place, lagging behind Labour and Reform UK, the Tory leader will be hoping a refreshed shadow cabinet will help boost her party's popularity.
由于大多数民调显示保守党位居第三,落后于英国工党和改革党,这位保守党领袖希望新的影子内阁将有助于提高其政党的支持率。

前影子能源部长克莱尔·库蒂尼奥(Claire Coutinho)在产假结束后将接替格里菲斯担任影子商务部长,并担任副部长。
Badenoch said that as shadow chancellor, Sir Mel had helped the party rebuild economic credibility and become an effective opposition.
巴德诺克表示,作为影子财政大臣,梅尔爵士帮助该党重建了经济信誉,并成为有效的反对派。
A senior Conservative source said: "Kemi is changing the way the Conservative Party approaches economic policy and creating a new economic leadership team for the next phase, focused on growth, higher living standards and fiscal credibility."
一位资深保守党消息人士表示:“凯米正在改变保守党处理经济政策的方式,并为下一阶段组建新的经济领导团队,重点关注增长、提高生活水平和财政信誉。”
Sir Mel, who was appointed to the role following Badenoch's leadership election in 2024, described his time in post as a "great honour".
梅尔爵士在 2024 年巴德诺克当选领导人后被任命担任这一职务,他形容自己的任职时间是“巨大的荣誉”。
New shadow chancellor Griffith said the Tories will deliver "an economic revolution" with lower taxes, Britain drilling again to bring energy costs down, slashing red tape and Labour's Employment Rights Act.
新任影子财政大臣格里菲斯表示,保守党将通过降低税收来实现“一场经济革命”,英国将再次钻探以降低能源成本,削减繁文缛节和工党的就业权利法案。

他说:“保守党将永远支持那些带来增长、投资和就业机会的冒险者和财富创造者。”
The Tory source described Griffith as a "no-nonsense, pro-growth shadow chancellor with real business experience".

Opposition parties highlight Andrew Griffith's role in the 2022 Liz Truss mini-Budget Before he became MP for Arundel and South Downs in 2019, he served as a top executive at Sky and as chairman of Just Eat.
反对党强调安德鲁·格里菲斯 (Andrew Griffith) 在 2022 年利兹·特拉斯 (Liz Truss) 迷你预算中的作用 在 2019 年成为阿伦德尔和南唐斯的议员之前,他曾担任 Sky 的高管和 Just Eat 的董事长。
As a Treasury minister, Griffiths defended Liz Truss' 2022 mini-Budget.
作为财政部长,格里菲斯为利兹·特拉斯的 2022 年迷你预算辩护。
Labour Party chair Bridget Phillipson described Griffith as "a key architect of Liz Truss's disastrous mini-Budget" and said the shadow cabinet featured politicians "who hammered family finances and left our public services crumbling".
工党主席布里奇特·菲利普森将格里菲斯描述为“莉兹·特拉斯灾难性迷你预算的关键设计师”,并表示影子内阁的政客“重创了家庭财务,导致我们的公共服务崩溃”。
That message was echoed by other parties.
这一信息得到了其他各方的响应。
Liberal Democrat Treasury spokesperson Daisy Cooper said: "His appointment to shadow chancellor shows they're happy to forfeit any claim to economic credibility in their race to the bottom with Reform UK." Reform UK shadow chancellor Robert Jenrick said: "They haven't changed and still aren't sorry for the damage they inflicted on our country."
自由民主党财政部发言人黛西·库珀表示:“他被任命为影子财政大臣,表明他们很乐意在与英国改革党的竞争中放弃任何经济信誉。” 英国改革党影子财政大臣罗伯特·詹里克表示:“他们没有改变,而且仍然对他们给我们国家造成的损害感到抱歉。”
Dame Priti, who had been shadow foreign secretary since 2024, will return to the backbenches and will take on a new international role strengthening the Tories relationship with sister parties and centre-right movements abroad.
自 2024 年以来一直担任影子外交大臣的普里蒂夫人将重返后座,并将承担新的国际角色,加强保守党与海外姊妹党和中右翼运动的关系。
Badenoch will also need to select a new shadow health secretary after Stuart Andrew confirmed he will be returning to the backbenches, and a new shadow housing secretary after Sir James Cleverly quit the front bench, announcing he wants to run for London mayor.
在斯图尔特·安德鲁(Stuart Andrew)确认他将重返后座议员之后,巴德诺克还需要选出一位新的影子卫生部长,在詹姆斯·克莱维利爵士(Sir James Cleverly)退出前座议员并宣布他想竞选伦敦市长后,巴德诺克还需要选出一位新的影子住房大臣。
Claire Coutinho will become shadow business secretary after maternity leave Badenoch's reshuffle is intended to bring solutions to a number of problems.
产假结束后克莱尔·库蒂尼奥将成为影子商务秘书 巴德诺赫的改组旨在解决一些问题。
First, she wants to retire those members of her top team that have had a relatively low profile, or who have not been delivering sufficient blows to both Labour and Reform UK.
首先,她希望让其高层团队中那些相对低调或没有给英国工党和改革派带来足够打击的成员退休。
Badenoch paid a warm tribute to Sir Mel but some recent polls suggested that Reform UK were more trusted on the economy than the Conservatives.
巴德诺克对梅尔爵士表示热烈敬意,但最近的一些民意调查显示,改革英国在经济方面比保守党更受信任。
And that is something Kemi Badenoch felt needed to change.
凯米·巴德诺克 (Kemi Badenoch) 认为需要改变这一点。
Second, while familiar faces like Dame Priti were useful to have in the top team as they brought high-level government experience, they might also remind voters of the party they decisively rejected in 2024.
其次,虽然像普里蒂夫人这样的熟悉面孔在高层团队中很有用,因为他们带来了高层政府经验,但他们也可能让选民想起他们在 2024 年果断拒绝的政党。
There has been a changing of the old guard, and Badenoch is now focusing on who can take the Conservatives into the next election - faced as she is by a new Labour leader and cabinet.
保守派发生了变化,巴德诺克现在关注的焦点是谁能带领保守党进入下一次选举——她面临着新的工党领袖和内阁。
Third, she wants to focus on issues where Labour is perceived to be vulnerable.
第三,她希望关注工党被认为脆弱的问题。
One such area is defence spending and national security.
其中之一就是国防开支和国家安全。
So as shadow foreign secretary she appointed Tom Tugendhat - a former security minister and current army reservist who served in Afghanistan and Iraq.
因此,她任命汤姆·图根哈特(Tom Tugendhat)为影子外交大臣——前安全部长、现任陆军预备役军人,曾在阿富汗和伊拉克服役。
He will work as part of a team with the shadow defence secretary.
他将与影子国防部长一起工作。
Some opinion polls rate the economy as the most important issue for voters, above asylum and immigration, and again the Tory leader believes the government is vulnerable here, with sluggish growth. So she has announced a new Conservative economic unit headed by Griffith, with his extensive business experience.
一些民意调查将经济视为选民最重要的问题,高于庇护和移民,而保守党领袖再次认为政府在这方面很脆弱,经济增长缓慢。 因此,她宣布成立一个新的保守党经济部门,由拥有丰富商业经验的格里菲斯领导。
Coutinho as his deputy is seen as a rising Conservative star who has performed well in her previous role shadowing the former energy secretary Ed Miliband in the Commons, and as a potential future chancellor if the Conservatives were ever to recover electorally.
库蒂尼奥作为副手被视为保守党一颗冉冉升起的新星,她在之前的角色中表现出色,在下议院跟随前能源部长埃德·米利班德,如果保守党在选举中复苏,库蒂尼奥将成为未来潜在的财政大臣。
But the Tory leader has also included the former Conservative chairman and City Minister Richard Fuller in the unit, concentrating on fiscal responsibility and tax.
但这位保守党领袖还将前保守党主席兼市部长理查德·富勒纳入该部门,重点关注财政责任和税收问题。
He will be deployed as an attack dog if - as she believes he will – the chancellor raises taxes in the Budget.
如果财政大臣在预算中提高税收(她相信他会这样做),他将被部署为攻击犬。
But the role will also underline that the Conservative leader is serious about making her sums add up, in contrast to her characterisation of Reform UK's plans as ill-thought out.
但这一角色也将凸显出这位保守党领袖认真对待自己的想法,这与她对英国改革计划的描述是考虑不周的形成鲜明对比。
The question now though is whether Badenoch will change her own approach to political leadership.
但现在的问题是巴德诺克是否会改变她自己的政治领导方式。
While some of her top team may be seen as lacklustre, how much opportunity did they get to shine?
虽然她的一些高层团队可能被认为表现平淡,但他们有多少机会发光发热?
She tends to make the big announcements and is ubiquitous on the media.
她倾向于发布重大公告,并且在媒体上无处不在。
If the Conservatives are to convince voters they are once again a government in waiting then the public will have to see that there is breadth and depth in the team that is shadowing current ministers.
如果保守党要让选民相信他们再次成为候任政府,那么公众就必须看到当前部长团队的广度和深度。
