Reform UK has pledged to cut £80bn of public spending within five years by reducing welfare, net zero policies, overseas aid and the number of civil servants.
英国改革组织承诺在五年内通过减少福利、净零政策、海外援助和公务员数量来削减800亿英镑的公共支出。
Speaking from the party's conference in Birmingham, economic spokesman Robert Jenrick said he would like to cut taxes in Reform's first Budget if it wins power at the next election but would have to "earn the trust" of the markets first.
经济发言人罗伯特·詹里克(Robert Jenrick)在伯明翰举行的党内会议上表示，如果改革党在下次选举中获胜，他希望在其第一份预算中减税，但必须首先“赢得市场的信任”。
Reform would be the "party of fiscal responsibility", he said and promised to make "big changes... in a careful way, not a cack-handed way".
他表示，改革将是“财政责任方”，并承诺将做出“重大改变……以谨慎的方式，而不是笨手笨脚的方式”。
Labour said the proposed cuts were "incredibly reckless and could mean vital public services like hospitals, schools and law enforcement are put at risk".
工党表示，拟议的削减“极其鲁莽，可能意味着医院、学校和执法部门等重要公共服务面临风险”。
The bulk of Reform's proposed cuts come from its previously announced plans to reduce the welfare budget by £50bn. £10bn would be saved by cutting net zero programmes while £8bn would come from reducing the civil service and £7.1bn from capping the foreign aid budget.
改革提议的大部分削减来自其之前宣布的削减 500 亿英镑福利预算的计划。 削减净零排放计划将节省 100 亿英镑，减少公务员队伍将节省 80 亿英镑，限制对外援助预算将节省 71 亿英镑。
The party says its immigration policies, including abolishing indefinite leave to remain, would result in further savings.
该党表示，其移民政策，包括取消无限期居留权，将带来进一步的节省。
Does Reform's plan to cut £50bn in welfare spending add up?
改革计划削减 500 亿英镑的福利支出是否有效？
Reform plans to scrap indefinite leave to remain for migrants Chris Mason: Reform face headwinds as they gather for conference Jenrick is due to give a major speech to the conference on Saturday but speaking at a fringe event with journalist Allister Heath, he sought to reassure voters that Reform's policies would be affordable.
改革计划取消移民无限期居留权 克里斯·梅森：改革面临阻力，因为他们聚集在一起参加会议 詹里克定于周六在会议上发表重要演讲，但在与记者阿利斯特·希思一起举行的边缘活动中发表讲话时，他试图向选民保证改革的政策是可以承受的。
He said it was important to "learn the lessons of [former Prime Minister] Liz Truss" who he said "basically went into a sweetie shop, took everything off the shelves and stuck it into a budget".
他说，“吸取[前总理]利兹·特拉斯的教训”很重要，他说，特拉斯“基本上走进了一家糖果店，把货架上的所有东西都拿走了，然后把它们纳入预算”。
"Quite rightly the markets reacted very negatively to that."
“市场对此反应非常消极，这是完全正确的。”
Jenrick was a health minister in 2022 when Truss's plan to deliver large energy bill subsidies and £45bn of tax cuts shook market confidence in the UK's financial credibility.
2022 年，詹里克 (Jenrick) 担任卫生部长，当时特拉斯 (Truss) 提供巨额能源账单补贴和 450 亿英镑减税的计划动摇了市场对英国财务信誉的信心。
Reform has previously said it wanted to cut inheritance tax but Jenrick suggested that would not be a priority, arguing relatively few people were affected by it.
改革党此前曾表示希望削减遗产税，但詹里克表示这不会是一个优先事项，认为受其影响的人相对较少。
"It's a bold chancellor that would say I'd rather privilege 36,000 families than 40 million [income] taxpayers," he said.
“这是一位大胆的财政大臣，他说我宁愿为 36,000 个家庭提供特权，也不愿为 4000 万（收入）纳税人提供特权，”他说。
He said his party would retain the triple lock - the mechanism which ensures pensions rise by either 2.5%, the rate of inflation or the rate of average earnings, whichever is highest.
他表示，他的政党将保留三重锁定——确保养老金上涨2.5%、通货膨胀率或平均收入率（以最高者为准）的机制。
The triple lock is estimated to cost £15.5bn per year by 2030 but Jenrick said he could not look pensioners "in the eye" and cut their income "while there is so much waste in the public sector".
据估计，到 2030 年，三重锁每年将花费 155 亿英镑，但詹里克表示，“在公共部门存在如此多的浪费的情况下”，他不能“正视”养老金领取者并削减他们的收入。
He said it would be "fundamentally unfair going to pensions before we have made hard choices elsewhere".
他表示，“在我们在其他地方做出艰难选择之前就去领取养老金，从根本上来说是不公平的”。
Jenrick has written to investors who hold government debt to set up meetings in London and New York to discuss what fiscal rules he would set with the aim of reducing the cost of borrowing.
詹里克已写信给持有政府债务的投资者，要求他们在伦敦和纽约召开会议，讨论他将制定哪些财政规则，以降低借贷成本。
The past few days have seen global borrowing costs rise, with the UK's costs increasing to a 28-year high.
过去几天，全球借贷成本上升，英国的借贷成本升至 28 年来的新高。
Also speaking at the conference, the party's business spokesman Richard Tice set out a number of proposals aimed at increasing house building on brownfield sites - land that has previously been built on.
该党商业发言人理查德·泰斯也在会议上发表讲话，提出了一系列旨在增加棕地（以前已建过的土地）上房屋建设的提案。
He said the party would consult on measures including scrapping stamp duty, capital gains tax and tax on rental income for a decade for homes built on brownfield sites.
他表示，该党将就包括在十年内取消棕地房屋的印花税、资本利得税和租金收入税等措施进行磋商。
Under the proposals, affordable housing requirements would be removed for brownfield developments outside major cities.
根据提案，将取消主要城市以外棕地开发项目的经济适用房要求。
The party's policy document says its plans would reduce tax receipts but argued that additional homes built as a result would boost the economy.
该党的政策文件称，其计划将减少税收收入，但认为由此建造的更多住房将提振经济。
Tice has also suggested cutting business rates for high street shops, offsetting the cost by increasing the tax for online retailers.
泰斯还建议降低商业街商店的营业税率，通过增加在线零售商的税收来抵消成本。
Reform's conference at the Birmingham NEC comes at the end of a turbulent summer which saw its leader Nigel Farage resign and then re-run in his Clacton constituency in a bid to end questions about a £5m gift he received before becoming an MP.
改革党在伯明翰国家选举委员会举行的会议正值动荡的夏季结束之际，改革党领导人奈杰尔·法拉奇辞职，然后在他的克拉克顿选区重新竞选，以结束有关他在成为议员之前收到的 500 万英镑礼物的质疑。
There is also a police investigation into donations made to the party.
警方还对向该党提供的捐款进行了调查。
The main business of the conference is expected to take place on Friday and Saturday, with speeches from Farage and other senior figures, as well as an address by the leader of the French far right National Rally party, Jordan Bardella.
会议的主要内容预计将在周五和周六举行，法拉奇和其他高级人物将发表讲话，法国极右翼国家集会党领导人乔丹·巴尔德拉将发表讲话。
