Watch: 'I firmly believe I have broken no rules,' Farage tells BBC Nigel Farage has said the UK is a "complainants' society", as he faces ongoing questions about both his and his party's finances.
观看：法拉奇告诉 BBC，“我坚信我没有违反任何规则” 奈杰尔·法拉奇表示，英国是一个“抱怨者社会”，因为他和他的政党的财务状况都面临着持续的问题。
Speaking to the BBC ahead of the party's annual conference this week, the Reform UK leader said a "whole ecosystem" didn't want "new kids on the block succeeding".
这位改革英国领导人在本周举行的党年度会议之前向英国广播公司发表讲话时表示，“整个生态系统”不希望“新来的孩子取得成功”。
It comes after a summer dominated by headlines about the party's finances and £5m he received from a party supporter before the last election.
在此之前的一个夏天，有关该党财务状况的头条新闻以及他在上次选举前从一名党派支持者那里收到的 500 万英镑都成为了头条新闻。
Farage acknowledged his party's poll ratings had taken a hit compared to last year, but said it would rebound and still had "every chance" of winning the next general election.
法拉奇承认，与去年相比，他所在政党的民调支持率受到了打击，但他表示，该党的支持率将会反弹，并且仍然“有机会”赢得下届大选。
Reform's annual conference begins in Birmingham on Thursday, with both Farage and the party facing renewed questions over money.
改革党年度会议将于周四在伯明翰开幕，法拉奇和该党都面临着新的金钱问题。
A parliamentary investigation into £5m he received from major Reform donor Christopher Harborne was relaunched following Farage's re-election in Clacton, after a by-election he called in the Essex seat.
法拉奇在埃塞克斯议席进行补选并在克拉克顿连任后，议会重新启动了对他从主要改革捐助者克里斯托弗·哈博恩 (Christopher Harborne) 那里收到的 500 万英镑的调查。
The Metropolitan Police is also investigating whether payments to Reform in the weeks before the last election complied with donation laws.
伦敦警察厅还在调查上次选举前几周向改革组织支付的款项是否符合捐赠法。
The police probe is examining donations given directly to the party by Fiona Cottrell, mother of longstanding Farage ally George Cottrell.
警方调查正在调查菲奥娜·科特雷尔（Fiona Cottrell）直接向该党提供的捐款，她是法拉奇长期盟友乔治·科特雷尔（George Cottrell）的母亲。
It is also examining payments from a company controlled by Reform's deputy leader Richard Tice, which received £1m from Fiona Cottrell in June 2024.
它还在审查由改革党副领袖理查德·泰斯控制的一家公司支付的款项，该公司于2024年6月从菲奥娜·科特雷尔那里获得了100万英镑。
Asked if he knew whether or not money donated by Fiona Cottrell had come from her son George, Farage said he was not "involved in the transactions".
当被问及他是否知道菲奥娜·科特雷尔捐赠的钱是否来自她的儿子乔治时，法拉奇表示他没有“参与交易”。
However, he added that he "had been told it's her money".
然而，他补充说，他“被告知这是她的钱”。
Reform has insisted it has always complied with donations rules. He added: "The point is, we live in a complainants' society.
改革坚称它始终遵守捐赠规则。 他补充道：“关键是，我们生活在一个抱怨者的社会。
If you complain about me, automatically that triggers an investigation." He said that political parties were "constantly writing to all the authorities", meaning Reform was "under investigation every day for virtually everything we do".
如果你抱怨我，就会自动引发调查。” 他说，政党“不断写信给所有当局”，这意味着改革党“几乎每天都在接受我们所做的一切调查”。
"There's a big picture here.
“这里有一幅大图。
The old two-party system that has dominated since the end of the First World War feels for the first time it faces an existential threat. "There is a whole ecosystem with a century of development around this.
自第一次世界大战结束以来一直占据主导地位的旧两党制度首次感到面临生存威胁。 “围绕这个有一个完整的生态系统，经历了一个世纪的发展。
And we come along from virtually nowhere and threaten the whole thing. "So I think what you're seeing is the establishment, in a very co-ordinated way, fighting back."
我们几乎不知从何而来并威胁到整个事情。 “所以我认为你所看到的是当权者以一种非常协调的方式进行反击。”
Pressed on what he meant, he added: "I'm talking about normal human behaviour.
当被问及他的意思时，他补充道：“我说的是正常的人类行为。
"People who hold positions of power, influence and money don't want new kids on the block succeeding.
“拥有权力、影响力和金钱的人不希望新来的孩子取得成功。
It's the whole ecosystem, it's everything." Farage said he expected it "won't be too long" before he is interviewed by Parliament's standards commissioner Daniel Greenberg as part of his probe into whether he should have publicly declared the £5m he received from Harborne.
这是整个生态系统，是一切。” 法拉奇表示，他预计“不会太久”，他就会接受议会标准专员丹尼尔·格林伯格的采访，以调查他是否应该公开宣布他从 Harbourne 收到的 500 万英镑。
He continued to insist the sum, which he says was a personal gift, did not require registration under Commons rules.
他继续坚称这笔钱是个人礼物，不需要根据下议院的规则进行登记。
He added he had "no questions" about Greenberg's impartiality, but hit out at the "political composition" of the standards committee that will recommend what action should be taken on his findings.
他补充说，他对格林伯格的公正性“没有任何疑问”，但猛烈抨击了标准委员会的“政治构成”，该委员会将建议应根据他的调查结果采取什么行动。
The 14-member panel includes seven MPs from Labour, the Conservatives and Liberal Democrats, but none from Reform UK.
这个由 14 名成员组成的小组包括来自工党、保守党和自由民主党的 7 名议员，但没有来自改革英国的议员。
He added: "Have you seen who's on the committee?
他补充道：“你看到委员会中有哪些人了吗？
I think we know the outcome already. I'm not going to say anything more than that." "To be judged by members of Parliament by other political parties who you're fighting against in by-elections or general elections, I think that raises a question, I really do," he added.
我想我们已经知道结果了。 除此之外我不会再说什么了。” 他补充说：“在补选或大选中，国会议员会根据你在补选或大选中反对的其他政党来评判，我认为这提出了一个问题，我真的这么认为。”
Elsewhere in his interview, Farage acknowledged that Reform was "down a bit" in its poll ratings compared to 2025, after failing to win in by-elections this year including Gorton and Denton and Makerfield, which saw Andy Burnham's re-election as an MP ahead of becoming Labour leader.
法拉奇在采访中承认，改革党在今年的补选中未能获胜，其中包括戈顿、丹顿和梅克菲尔德，安迪·伯纳姆在成为工党领袖之前再次当选议员，因此改革党的民调支持率与 2025 年相比“略有下降”。
But he added that "markets don't move in straight lines", adding that the party still had "every chance" of winning the next general election, due by 2029.
但他补充说，“市场不会直线波动”，并补充说，该党仍然“有机会”赢得 2029 年举行的下一次大选。
He said the party was continuing to look "outside of the political sphere" to fill frontbench positions, following a raft of appointments earlier this year to senior posts within the party.
他表示，继今年早些时候任命了大量党内高级职位后，该党正在继续“在政治领域之外”寻找填补前座职位的人选。
And he said he continued to hold to his previous prediction there would be an election next spring "forced on the government" by the markets, amid rising costs to public borrowing.
他表示，在公共借贷成本不断上升的情况下，他继续坚持之前的预测，即市场“迫使政府”在明年春天举行选举。
Reform's conference, he said, would be a chance for the party to set out details of the "fundamental changes" it would make within 100 days of winning power.
他说，改革大会将是该党阐述其将在掌权后 100 天内实施的“根本性变革”细节的一个机会。
He added that whilst his and other parties had announced a number of new policies in recent weeks, what most interested voters was who is "actually going to deliver" than the specifics of individual policies.
他补充说，虽然他和其他政党最近几周宣布了许多新政策，但选民最感兴趣的是谁“真正将交付”而不是个别政策的具体细节。
