所以，自由黨在政府提出《條例草案》初期不斷向政府及保安局反映業界的經歷和憂慮，希望政府理性地作出適當解說和修訂，令香港市民對《條例草案》有信心。
Therefore the Liberal Party had conveyed the experience and concerns of the industry to the Administration and the Security Bureau when the Bill was first introduced urging the Administration to give explanations rationally and make appropriate amendments so as to instil public confidence in the Bill
我相信這樣才是我們理性地需要做的事，特區政府需要向各位市民解釋。
I believe this is what we should do rationally . The SAR Government has to give explanations to the public
當然，我馬上查證發生甚麼事。
Certainly I made it a point to verify what had happened immediately
但是，在聯署前有一個註腳，註明不代表該學校的立場，也不代表教師的立場，亦不代表全部學生的立場。
However above the signatures there was a footnote indicating that the petition did not represent the position of the school nor did it represent the position of the teachers or all the students
我對此感到莫名奇妙，其實那些人代表誰呢？
I really felt quite puzzled about this . Whom do these people represent actually?
再看清楚，原來不是很多學生反對，絕大部分學生都沒有表態。
Upon taking a closer look it turned out that not many students opposed the Bill after all . The majority of the students have not indicated their stand
無立法效力的議案辯論。
Debates on motions with no legislative effect
"對行政長官投不信任票"議案。
Motion on Vote of no confidence in the Chief Executive
我請尹兆堅議員發言及動議議案。
I call upon Mr Andrew WAN to speak and move the motion
這項修訂在社會上的確引起爭 議，包括我代表的工商業界亦有憂慮。
This amendment exercise has indeed sparked off controversies in society including the industrial and commercial sectors which I represent holding misgivings about it
因此，當務之急應是在議會內充分討論修訂，並通過議會既有機制尋求最大公約數，而非對負責推銷的官員當然包括特首作出無理批評。
Therefore it is imperative to thoroughly discuss the amendment in the Council and seek the greatest common factor through the established mechanism of the Council instead of levelling unreasonable criticisms at officials in charge of promotion certainly including the Chief Executive
這樣做或許可以製造一些政治阻力，但我卻看不到有任何作用。
Doing so may perhaps create some political resistance but I do not see it achieving any effect
對於《逃犯條例》的修訂，坊間不少學者和團體陸續提出了一些方案，我相信至今政府的溝通大門也是一直打開的。
As regards the FOO amendments many scholars and organizations in the community have made some proposals one after another . I believe to date the Government has been keeping the door of communication open
再者，《逃犯條例》的修訂總有可以優化之處，例如設立追溯期及規定必須由最高層次的司法機關提出申請等。
Moreover the amendments to FOO can always be optimized by for example setting a retrospective period and stipulating that applications must be made by the highest - level judicial authority
我相信在下個階段的審議過程中，大家也有機會就各項修訂深入討論。
I believe in the next stage of scrutiny all Honourable colleagues will have an opportunity to engage in in - depth discussions on various amendments
如果在現階段就把矛頭指向特首，甚至口口聲聲要求撤回修訂，既沒有建設性，亦絕不會成功。
If we now pinpoint the Chief Executive at this stage or even make claims to request withdrawal of the amendment it is neither constructive nor will it be successful
更何況，林鄭月娥特首上任不足兩年，現在就對她的施政能力和政策成效作出批評，便是言之尚早。
Moreover Chief Executive Carrie LAM has assumed office for less than two years . It is now premature to criticize at her abilities in administration and the effectiveness of her policies
特首在上任後提出多項政策建議，大部分都在逐步推行中，初見成效。
Since taking office the Chief Executive has made numerous policy proposals most of which having been implemented gradually and their effectiveness is beginning to be seen
直至今年5月，2018年施政報告提出的新措施中約有29項已經完成，其他的亦正在計劃推展。
As at May this year among the new measures presented in the 2018 Policy Address about 29 have been completed while the remaining ones are being planned for implementation
另外，在改善民生方面，大至造地建屋，小至改善公眾街市及公廁，政府亦有積極回應市民的訴求。
Moreover as regards the improvement of peoples livelihood the Government has made proactive responses to peoples demands ranging from housing construction to enhancement of public markets and toilets
身為議會一分子，相信大家也關注行政立法關係，而特首在參選政綱及首兩份施政報告中，均有就改善行政立法關係提出一些積極而有用的措施。
As members of the Council I believe all Honourable colleagues are concerned about the executive - legislature relationship . And the Chief Executive has both in her Election Manifesto and her first two Policy Addresses proposed a number of positive and useful measures to improve the executive - legislature relationship
在過去兩年，特首與本會議員的溝通及互動相當頻繁，例如：與各政黨議員建立恆常溝通機制；接納議員建議，把施政報告提前到每年10月發表；增加每月一次接受立法會議員"短問短答"的質詢環節；及提出以"先易後難"方式將申請立法會撥款項目重新排序，以減少爭議及加快項目審批等。
Over the past two years the Chief Executive has engaged herself in fairly frequent communication and interaction with Members of this Council . Some examples are establishment of a regular communication mechanism with Members of various political parties acceptance of Members suggestion of advancing the presentation of the Policy Address to October every year addition of a monthly Question Time to take questions from Members in a short question short answer format the proposal of rearranging funding applications to the Legislative Council using the approach of easy ones first and difficult ones later so as to minimize disputes and expedite the approval of projects etc
因此，我實在看不到有任何理由對行政長官投不信任票。
Therefore I really do not see any reason for casting a vote of no confidence in the Chief Executive
不論議會政治如何壁壘分明，我們身為議員也不應該基於政治目的而掀起進一步的政治爭拗，浪費議會時間。
Regardless of the sharp and distinctive division of parliamentary politics we as Members should not provoke further political disputes out of political motives
目前，最有迫切性的議題理應是即將上場的《逃犯條例》二讀辯論。
At present the most pressing issue should be the upcoming Second Reading of the amendment bill related to FOO
如果持反對意見的議會同事不斷節外生枝，而非聚焦討論最佳的修訂方案，恐怕便會辜負市民所託。
If Honourable colleagues holding dissenting views keep bringing up unnecessary ramifications instead of focusing their attention on discussing the best amendment proposals I am afraid they will fail the trust of the people
最後，我認為，議會應該實事求是，針對市民關心的議題，監察政府施政，並提出有建設性的建議，以改善施政和民生，而不應只破不立，這樣對社會並無益處。
Lastly I hold that the Council should be pragmatic in monitoring the administration by the Government in respect of issues of concern to the people and make constructive suggestions so as to improve policy implementation and peoples livelihood . They should not on the contrary only seek to inflict destruction without making constructive efforts . It brings no benefit to society
代理主席，我發言支持原議案及修正案。
Deputy President I speak in support of the original motion and the amendment
不過，毛孟靜議員剛才發言指出，她提出修正案的目的，是希望我們討論"對行政長官投不信任票"的議案時能夠集中在修訂《逃犯條例》一事上。
Yet Ms Claudia MO pointed out in her speech earlier that she had proposed the amendment in the hope that we could focus on the amendment exercise of the Fugitive Offenders Ordinance FOO in discussing the motion on Vote of no confidence in the Chief Executive
不過我覺得，正如有同事提到，"林鄭"上場兩年多以來，其施政失誤實在令人極度反感，她不單造成民不聊生，更引起社會撕裂，甚至令我們一直維護的"一國兩制"及"高度自治"這些核心價值搖搖欲墜，導致社會各界極度不滿。
But in my view as some Honourable colleagues have mentioned the policy blunders made by Carrie LAM during the two years after her assumption of office have made people extremely disgusted . She has not only created great hardship for the public but also social dissension . What is more she has even caused the core values of one country two systems and a high degree of autonomy that we have been upholding to falter leading to extreme dissatisfaction among people from all walks of life in society
她除了令廣大市民對她投下不信任票之外，連對特區政府亦投下不信任票。
In addition to causing the general public to cast a vote of no confidence in her a vote of no confidence is also cast in the SAR Government
不單她的民望低，甚至所有在她領導下的官員的民望亦低，對整個政府的信心也非常低。
Apart from her low popularity even the popularity of the officials under her leadership is low as well whereas people also have very low confidence in the entire Government
代理主席，很簡單，剛才有議員亦提到，林鄭月娥曾表示，如果民意認為她不應該繼續擔任特首，她便會下台。
Deputy President it is very simple . Just now some Members also mentioned that Carrie LAM had indicated that she would step down if the public thought that she should no longer serve as the Chief Executive
問題在於政府對社會說得很動聽，但做的卻完全是另一回事。
The problem lies in the fact that whilst the Government tells society something pleasant to the ear what they do is quite another matter
可惜，事實並非如此。
Regrettably this is not the case in actuality
正如剛才數位議員提及，林鄭月娥開始擔任特首時，曾表示要修補社會的撕裂、改善行政立法關係，希望香港人對特區政府的施政更有希望、更有信心。
As a number of Members mentioned earlier when Carrie LAM took office she said she hoped to mend the social rift and improve the relationship between the executive and the legislature and hoped that the people of Hong Kong will hold hopes and confidence in the administration of the SAR Government
至於民主派，當特首所做的工作符合公眾利益，我們便會支持政府施政，我們亦盡力嘗試改變行政和立法關係。
As for the pro - democracy camp when the work of the Chief Executive is in the interest of the public we will support the Governments administration and we will exert our level best to improve the relationship between the executive and the legislature
在這方面，我問心無愧。
In this connection I have a clear conscience
我現在告訴梁美芬議員，她無需思考《條例草案》，也不要裝作有甚麼自我思想、自我思維，只要支持便可，而政府一定不會有任何退讓，因為中聯辦已說明不可以。
Now I am telling Dr Priscilla LEUNG that she needs not think about the Bill and she needs not pretend to be a person who has her own thoughts and ideas for she needs only support the Bill and the Government will make no concession as LOCPG has already ruled out that option
這是否他們所謂的全面管治權，"一國兩制"是否不變形、不走樣呢？
Is this what they call overall jurisdiction and has one country two systems remained not bent or distorted? . What about the remark about it being unnecessary to rely on LOCPG to secure votes?
她不應為了自己的管治威信而押上全香港的人、香港的所有利益、重要的金融中心地位，但如今這些都被林鄭月娥一次過押上她的戰車。
She should not put the people of Hong Kong all the interests of Hong Kong and our significant status as a financial centre at stake merely for her own prestige in governance . Yet this time around Carrie LAM has loaded up her chariot with all these
她嘴巴上說要改善行政立法關係，令行政立法關係可以修補，不要如梁振英年代般，大家劍拔弩張，以致完全不能運作。
She talks about improving and mending the relationship between the executive and the legislature so as to avoid confrontations which used to prevail at the time of LEUNG Chun - ying and paralyse the operation
然而，如果施政對香港這麼有利，我想問司長，為甚麼特首的民望如今竟跌至-27%的新低呢？
Yet may I ask the Chief Secretary had the administration been beneficial to Hong Kong why the approval rating of the Chief Executive would have dropped to the record low of - 27 % now?
為甚麼六成市民反對她出任特首？
Why would 60 % of the public oppose her to be the Chief Executive?
司長可有睜開眼看看市民的意見，還是他認為市民都被誤導，他們的意見都欠缺實質內容呢？
Has the Chief Secretary opened up his eyes and looked into the views of the public? . Or does he think that members of the public have been misled and their views lack substantive content?
代理主席，司長提到的另一點，就是當局如何改善民生，更以改善公廁質素為證。
Deputy President another point raised by the Chief Secretary is the improvement of peoples livelihood made by the authorities and he even cited the quality improvement of public toilets as an example
政府竟然以一個"屎坑"政績作為解說其施政有多成功的例子，這種視野和水平的低落，實在可悲，亦可笑。
The Government is so low in vision and standard that it would quote its shit - pit achievement to illustrate its success in administration . How deplorable and ludicrous it is
代理主席，林鄭月娥硬推惡法，我形容為心腸歹毒，她消費一宗台灣命案，出賣香港市民。
Deputy President Carrie LAM bulldozes through the draconian law and I will say she has a vicious heart . She capitalizes on the Taiwan homicide case to betray the people of Hong Kong
主席說不可形容她是"講大話"，那我形容她為是非真相的終結者。
As the President has ruled that Members are not allowed to describe her as lying I will say that she is the terminator of right and wrong and the truth
按照這個循環論說，她永遠說得通，因為她說的是歪理。
Following this loop of argument she can always justify herself for all she says is sophistry
代理主席，林鄭月娥一直蔑視社會和國際社會各種合理意見。
Deputy President all along Carrie LAM has held the reasonable opinions expressed by society and the international community in contempt
她形容立法會議員和社會提出的多項質疑是"廢話"；她形容外國使節向她提出的憂慮"沒有實質內容"，是政治立場宣示；她形容很多市民的質疑是基於誤解。
She dismissed the many queries raised by Members of the Legislative Council and society as nonsense . Regarding the worries expressed by foreign envoys she said they were mere declarations of political stance lacking specific content and she said the many queries raised by the public were prompted by misunderstandings
我懷疑禮賓府有一塊魔鏡，"林鄭"每天也會站到魔鏡前問："魔鏡、魔鏡，全世界最棒的是誰？
I suspect there is a magic mirror in Government House where Carrie LAM will stand in front of the mirror everyday asking Mirror mirror who is the greatest in this world?
她不單不聆聽市民、民主派立法會議員的意見，亦不聆聽公務員團隊、政務官員的意見，很多政務官也曾向我投訴這點，就是外國商會和外國領使的意見，她也不聆聽。
She does not merely refuse to listen to the views of the public and Members of the Legislative Council from the pro - democracy camp she also refuses to listen to the views of the civil service and Administrative Officers . Many Administrative Officers have complained to me about this . She even refuses to listen to views expressed by foreign chambers of commerce and foreign envoys
林鄭月娥上任至今，與梁振英有何分別呢？
Since Carrie LAM assumed office in what way is she different from LEUNG Chun - ying?
我會這樣形容：梁振英的壞事，是說多於做，因為他不夠膽量，沒有能力做；而林鄭月娥則是做多於說，她只管做壞事。
I will put it this way LEUNG Chun - ying did more bragging than actually doing bad deeds for he lacks the courage and ability; but Carrie LAM has done more bad deeds than talking about them
是下一任特首的位置、是政協副主席的位置，還是其他國家領導人級的位置呢？
Is it the position of the next Chief Executive or the Vice - President of the National Committee of the Chinese Peoples Political Consultative Conference CPPCC or other position of State leadership ranking?
我認為可以借用這句金句來形容當前的情況，其實立法會的同事石禮謙議員或在座的張華峰議員，他們穿過針的眼，比林鄭月娥進入天堂還要容易。
I think I can borrow this verse in the Bible to describe the present situation . In fact for colleagues of the Legislative Council like Mr Abraham SHEK and Mr Christopher CHEUNG in the Chamber it will be easier for them to go through the eye of a needle than for Carrie LAM
代理主席，6月9日便是遊行日期，是守護香港最重要的日子，我呼籲所有市民必定要站出來，一同"塞爆"銅鑼灣、"塞爆"灣仔、"塞爆"金鐘，讓全世界知道香港人的憤怒，知道我們對香港公義的堅持，知道我們守護香港法治的信心。
Deputy President 9 June is the date for the procession a significant date for safeguarding Hong Kong . I implore everyone to come forward to fill up Causeway Bay fill up Wan Chai and fill up Admiralty so that the world will know the anger of the people of Hong Kong our perseverance in upholding justice in Hong Kong and our faith in safeguarding the rule of law of Hong Kong
最後一點，代理主席，我在這裏呼籲羅致光民主黨的前黨友，如果他還有一點良知，請他辭職，跟林鄭月娥政府劃清界線。
Lastly Deputy President here I call on LAW Chi - kwong―a former comrade of the Democratic Party―to resign and sever his tie with Carrie LAMs Administration if he still has a conscience
剛才我聆聽張司長辯論開始時的發言，他用二三十分鐘時間來談論特首在過去大約兩年時間如何與我們同行、做過甚麼工作，又提及不同情況，感覺好像是派成績表般，做了很多民生的事情。
Just now I listened carefully to the opening speech delivered by Chief Secretary for Administration Matthew CHEUNG at the start of the debate . He spent 20 to 30 minutes talking about how the Chief Executive had connected with us in the last couple of years what work she had undertaken and he also mentioned various situations as though issuing a report card setting out the many things that have been done in respect of peoples livelihood
當中，對特首的滿意度是44.7分，即低於一半。
In it the satisfaction with the Chief Executive is 44.7 that is less than half
很明顯，從不同的文章可以看到，這跟特區政府或特首本人突然提出修訂《逃犯條例》有很大關係。
Obviously it can be seen from various articles that this is strongly related to the amendments to the Fugitive Offenders Ordinance FOO which were proposed all of a sudden by the SAR Government or the Chief Executive herself
據我理解我不知道是否正確特首在提出修訂《逃犯條例》的時候，也希望這會是一件民生事項。
As far as I know―I do not know if this is correct―when the Chief Executive proposed the amendments to FOO she also expected this to be a livelihood issue
據我理解，回看你們的解釋，這是源於在台灣發生的殺人事件，希望透過這樣做可以盡快解決事件。
According to my understanding and your explanation the cause of this matter is the murder case that happened in Taiwan and it was hoped that by taking such a step this matter can be resolved as soon as possible
特首曾經說過，"如果有一天我覺得市民對我的信任不夠，或者不好的時候，我是否應該下來不做特首"，我相信這正正是特首和她的團隊要深思熟慮的事情。
The Chief Executive once said to this effect If one day I feel that the trust of the public in me is inadequate or not good enough I will consider if I should step down as the Chief Executive . I believe this is precisely what the Chief Executive and her team need to think over now
即使你不顧政治後果，在現實經濟上，無論你說勾結外國勢力或甚麼也好，美國、歐盟、德國都表示，如果通過法案，可能會有危險，在有危險的時候，他們便會做一些事情來保障自己的利益。
Even if you disregard the political consequences in reality and in economic terms no matter what you say about collusion with foreign forces or whatever the United States the European Union and Germany have all said that if the Bill is passed there may be risks and in that case they will do something to protect their own interests
有鑒於此，代理主席，我反對尹議員、民主黨今天提出的這項無聊、沒有理據的不信任議案。
In view of this Deputy President I oppose to this frivolous and unreasonable motion on vote of no confidence proposed by Mr WAN and the Democratic Party today
主席，今天討論尹兆堅議員提出"對行政長官投不信任票"議案，源於特首強推《逃犯條例》。
President we are here to discuss this motion on Vote of no confidence in the Chief Executive proposed by Mr Andrew WAN today because the Chief Executive has insisted on forcing through the fugitives law
各位，這是活生生的民意，告訴我們這位特首倒行逆施，罔顧香港核心價值一直以來最重要的那條線，便是"一國兩制"這條線。
Members these are live public opinions . They are telling us that this Chief Executive has acted perversely against the public sentiments and neglected the most important line that has been underpinning the core values of Hong Kong and that is the line of one country two systems . President even if I used up all of my speaking time I could still not read out all the signatories from the education sector
主席，我用盡我的發言時間也不能夠將現時學界的聯署全部讀出來，可見社會究竟有多憤怒，這個現象是我們從來沒有見過的，但他們每一個聯署，也是市民的聲音，我們作為立法會議員，便要帶入立法會，告訴司長、告訴特首和告訴香港特區政府，這不是我們"生安白造"的......
From this we can see how angry society is and we have never seen this phenomenon before . But each and every one of these signatories stands for the voices of the people . We being Members of the Legislative Council must bring these voices into the Legislative Council and convey them to the Chief Secretary for Administration to the Chief Executive and to the Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region
但是，"樹欲靜而風不息"，反對派為反對而反對的本色從來不會因為特首的友善姿態而改變。
However the tree craves calm but the wind will not subdue . The true colours of the opposition camp that opposes for the sake of opposition never change despite the Chief Executives friendly gesture
所以，香港的反對派其實並不是外國議會即優質民主中所指的"忠誠的反對派"。
Accordingly the opposition camp in Hong Kong is not the so - called loyal opposition in the parliaments of foreign countries which are democracies of a high quality
忠誠的反對派對國家和人民忠誠，忠於建制內的權力來源。
The loyal opposition is loyal to the country and the people and loyal to the source of power within the establishment
但香港的反對派已正式淪為"盲反派"。
But the opposition camp in Hong Kong has formally become the blind opposition
但凡政府提出的全都反對，因為政府做得越壞，民生越差，他們才有政治能量壯大。
It opposes anything and everything the Government proposes because the worse the Governments performance is and the poorer peoples livelihood the more political power they will garner to beef up themselves
當然，政府有時也會有閃失，那他們當然會抓緊機會把這些閃失無限放大，特別是一切與內地和國家有關的事，進行最大程度的妖魔化。
Certainly sometimes the Government will blunder then they would certainly seize the opportunity to magnify such blunders to the fullest extent particularly anything related to the Mainland and the country and demonize them to the fullest extent
但反對派希望有一條永遠不能填補的鴻溝，興建一道越來越高的高牆，把我們與國家和內地隔絕起來。
However the opposition camp wishes there is a gulf that can never be bridged and wants to build an increasingly tall wall to segregate us from the country and the Mainland
但是，我們聽到反對派今天所說的，均是一些政治謀殺式的否定，抹煞特首過去1年多在教育、醫療、民生等方面的工作我特別認同她在覓地方面的努力。
However what we have heard the opposition camp utter today is nothing but dismissal tantamount to political murder to denigrate the work undertaken by the Chief Executive in respect of education health care peoples livelihood etc over the past year and more―I especially approve of her efforts in identifying land sites
他們便是"老屈"，為反對而反對。
They simply make false accusations and oppose for the sake of opposition
當反對派用1隻手指指着他人的時候，其實有3隻手指指着自己。
When the opposition camp points one finger at others they actually points three at themselves
我想告訴他們，很多市民同樣不信任反對派、"盲反派"。
I wish to tell them that many people also distrust the opposition camp―the blind opposition . Let me first talk about filibustering
特別是他們把香港見稱於國際並具公信力的司法制度說成如橡皮圖章一樣。
In particular they regarded the judicial system of Hong Kong which is internationally renowned and credible as a rubber stamp
舉例而言，美國總統去年提到中國人過好日子過了很長時間，所以要用一些手段來傷害中國的經濟。
For example the United States President mentioned last year that Chinese have been having a good time for long and so it was necessary to employ some means to harm the Chinese economy
公民黨的楊岳橋議員竟然在美國對這種說法表示認同，更說中國才是貿易戰的罪魁禍首，附和特朗普的說法，指美國是受害者。
Mr Alvin YEUNG of the Civic Party actually stated his agreement to such a notion in the United States even saying that China is the culprit of the trade war and seconding TRUMPs claim that the United States is the victim
去年的孟晚舟事件相當轟動，美國用莫須有的理由拘捕孟晚舟。
The MENG Wanzhou incident last year was a considerable sensation . The United States arrested MENG Wanzhou on unwarranted grounds
對此事件，新民主同盟的范國威議員便"執到寶"，瘋狂"抽水"，更說入境事務處濫發護照給孟晚舟，企圖醜化入境處。
As regards this incident Mr Gary FAN of the Neo Democrats acted like he had stumbled on a treasure and crazily piggybacked on it even suggesting the Immigration Department ImmD had arbitrarily issued passports to MENG Wanzhou in an attempt to defame ImmD
另外，又有一位美國高官說，美國政府與人合作只看經濟利益，不看人權，他亦口口聲聲說美國最擅長說謊、騙人、偷東西，而且這些是美國進步的榮耀等。
Moreover another high - ranking official of the Unites States said that the United States Government will work with anyone as long as it serves American interests regardless of human rights . He also claimed that Americans are the most adept at lying cheating and stealing and it represents the glory of the American experiment
其實外國包括美國制定了很多法例來限制政治人物與外國進行勾結。
Actually foreign countries including the United States have enacted many laws to restrict political figures from colluding with foreign countries
美國有《外國代理人登記法》，管制政客會否收取"黑金"或做出損害國家利益的事......
There is the Foreign Agents Registration Act in the United States which governs whether politicians will receive illicit funds or commit acts detrimental to national interests I find it necessary for Hong Kong to enact similar legislation Deputy President
代理主席，對於尹兆堅議員提出的不信任行政長官林鄭月娥女士的議案，以及毛孟靜議員提出的"無厘頭"修正案，我看後感到有點矛盾，究竟應否支持呢？
Deputy President I find myself caught in a little conflict after reading the motion on Vote of No Confidence in the Chief Executive ie . Mrs Carrie LAM proposed by Mr Andrew WAN and the nonsensical amendment proposed by Ms Claudia MO
我首先談談他們"無厘頭"的地方，泛民議員很多時候是有見地的，但卻放在錯誤的地方，往往適得其反。
I would firstly talk about their point which is senseless . Members from the pan - democratic camp are often insightful but they have put their insights on the wrong aspects frequently giving rise to an exactly opposite effect
他們做了很多動作，好像"駝背佬舂米"般，"見屁股動，卻不見米白"，意思是他們動作多多，卻完全沒有清醒過來，他們多次提出不信任議案，明知不可為而為之，為何他們不能坦率一點，與我們商討，大家談妥後一起對付她？
Whilst they have done a lot they act like a hunchback man pounding rice―we can only see their buttocks move but the rice does not become white―which means that they have made a lot of efforts but they have not come round . They have proposed a motion on vote of no confidence on many occasions to attempt the impossible . Why can they not be a bit more candid and discuss with us so that we can deal with her together after reaching a consensus?
他們卻喜歡孤芳自賞，剛愎自用，自以為手持20多票便可成事，但現實的政治形勢是他們沒有這種能力，那麼他們為何還要做這麼多動作？
Yet they are so narcissistic and self - willed presuming that they can achieve it with the 20 - odd votes in their hands . Yet the reality of the political situation is that they do not have such an ability then why do they still have to make so many gestures?
他們說修訂《逃犯條例》沒有進行諮詢，並會陷香港730萬人於不義。
They said that no consultation was conducted on the amendment of the Fugitive Offenders Ordinance FOO which would bring the 7.3 million Hong Kong people into injustice
說話不能片面、不能誤導，他們偏偏喜歡像"駝背佬舂米"，動作多多，但卻徒勞無功。
We should not be one - sided and misleading when we speak yet they are eager to act like a hunchback man grounding rice―doing so many things but all efforts are in vain
他們經常心中有鬼，是因為自己做了傷天害理的事，例如自行到訪華盛頓、慕尼黑或柏林......
They often have a guilty conscience because they have done evil deeds . For instance they took the initiative to visit Washington Munich or Berlin I have not yet asked them; I will write to Mr Dennis KWOK and Mr James TO later to ask them what they have said at those places
