鲍里斯•约翰逊，英国脱欧运动的领袖之一，也是被认为代替即将离职的首相卡梅伦的最佳人选，周四宣布自己并不想参加首相的选举，真是令人震惊。
Boris Johnson, one of the leading voices in the Brexit campaign and the man considered to be the favorite to replace outgoing Prime Minister David Cameron, delivered a bombshell Thursday when he announced he didn't want the job.
他说：“咨询过同事，并考虑到国会的现状，我的结论是我不会成为首相。”
He said: "Having consulted colleagues and in view of the circumstances in Parliament, I have concluded that that person cannot be me."
法拉奇曾表示，英国公投决定脱欧后，他的政治抱负已经完成了。
Mr Farage said his "political ambition has been achieved" with the UK having voted to leave the EU.
他说，“独立党现在处于很好的位置”，并表示自己不会改变离职的主意，就像他2015年大选之后做的一样。
He said the party was in a "pretty good place" and said he would not change his mind about quitting as he did after the 2015 general election.
法拉奇表示，领导英国独立党度过了很艰难的时期，但是是值得的。他补充道：“英国需要一位支持脱欧的首相。”
Leading UKIP was "tough at times" but "all worth it" said Mr Farage.He added that the UK needed a "Brexit prime minister".
