Xinhuanet London May 1 1 (Reporter Guo Yi) British Conservative Party leader Cameron1/KLOC-0 took over the post of Prime Minister on Sunday evening. At the request of Queen Elizabeth II, he began to form a new government.

Speaking in front of Downing Street 10, Cameron said that he and the Liberal Democratic Party Clegg would put aside their differences and work hard for the benefit of the public and the country. To this end, he will form an alliance with the Liberal Democratic Party and form a "strong and stable government".

Cameron said that he will start to solve the fiscal deficit and social problems and rebuild trust in the British political system. Although he had to make some difficult decisions, he hoped to lead the people to overcome difficulties and open up a better future.

Since the end of the British general election, the Conservative Party and the Liberal Democratic Party have held a series of consultations and negotiations on the formation of a new government. Negotiations between the two sides on 1 1 have been going on for nearly four hours. The Liberal Democratic Party and the Labour Party also held formal negotiations on the formation of a new government.

A spokesman for the Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) said that the Labour Party had never taken seriously the issue of forming a "actively reformed government" with the LDP. Mandelson, the former Minister of Commerce of the Labour Party, accused the Liberal Democratic Party of setting too many obstacles for negotiations.

In the British general election held on the 6th of this month, no political party won more than half of the seats in parliament, thus forming the first "parliament without a majority" since 1974. Although the Conservative Party won 306 seats and became the largest party in Parliament, it did not reach the 326 seats required for the majority status in Parliament. The Labour Party and the Liberal Democratic Party won 258 and 57 seats respectively.
