Yes, Minister S01E03/E04 学习笔记
（基本来自于破烂熊字幕组，只在个别翻译上略有改动。强大的字幕组！）
Perhaps the government thinks that a tax is the best form of defence.
也许政府认为征税才是最佳的国防。
Public don't know anything about wasting government money. We are the experts.
民众们对如何挥霍公家的钱财可是一窍不通。我们才是专家。
Suppose everyone went around saving money irresponsibly all over the place...
要是所有人都开始不负责任地到处省钱……
Stalling technique for the implementation of new policy (five stages)
1. First, he'll tell you there's lots of things to be getting on with.
2. Then, if you still persist, he'll say something like "Ah, yes, Minister, I quite appreciate the intention, certainly something ought to be done, but are you sure this is the right way to achieve it?"
3. Now, if you are still undeterred, he will shift his ground. He will shift from how to do it to when you should do it. I mean, he'll say "Now, Minister, this is not the right time, for all sorts of reasons"
4. And if you don't settle for that, he'll say that the policy"has run into difficulties, such as technical, political, legal......legal are the best sort, he can make those totally incomprehensible."
5. And with any luck, this technique will have lasted for three years and you'll be at the final stage when he says: "Now, Minister, we're getting very close to the next general election. Are you sure you can get this policy through?"
应对新政策实施的拖延战术（五个阶段）
1. 首先，他会跟你说内阁新建，尚有许多事务要处理。
2. 其次，如果你仍然坚持（实施政策），他会这么说：“好的，大臣阁下，意图很好，确实应予施行，但你肯定这就是实施它的正确方式？”
3. 如果你还没被唬住，他会改变立足点，从告诉你如何做转向告诉你何时做。他会这么说：“大臣阁下，出于各种原因，现在并非恰当的时机。”
4. 如果你仍未放弃，他便会说政策“实施起来困难重重，比方说在技术方面、行政方面、法律方面……法律是最好的托辞，他会使其听起来玄乎其玄。”
5. 走运的话，这个战术会持续三年。到了最后阶段，他会告诉你：“大臣阁下，下一届大选近在咫尺，你能保证这项政策通过吗？”
-There is a lot of nonsense talked about the Civil Service. It's actually a marvellous, efficient, professional organisation, capable of enormous energy and speed. It's staffed by a lot of talented, dedicated people who do everything in their power to help the government make it's policies into law.
-......Well, thank you for the commercial, Minister.
-关于行政部门，一直颇多微词。其实它是一个非凡而高效的专业机构，充满活力、高速运转，它汇集了许许多多有才干而又无私奉献的人们，这些人正尽其所能地帮助政府将政策转化为法律。
-……感谢您所做的广告，大臣阁下。
