Theresa May confirmed as next Prime Minister / 對手退選 梅伊將成英國第二位女首相　　　　　　　　　　

Theresa May, 59, who served as Interior Minister for the past six years, will become Britain's second female prime minister after Margaret Thatcher on July 13. Bearing high hopes from British people, she sets to work out her "Better Britain" plan during her service. ==DAVID CAMERON, British Prime Minister== Good afternoon, I'm delighted that we're not going to have a prolonged Conservative leadership election campaign. I'm also delighted that Theresa May will be the next Prime Minister. After 9 weeks of leadership campaign,Theresa May who has served as Interior Minister for six years, is set to become Britain's second female Prime Minister, after Margaret Thatcher. She will take office on July 13 as the British Prime Minister will officially resign the same day. == ROSS HAMMETT, British citizen== I think that she is the best person for the job out of all the candidates that there are. I think that she is a safe pair of hands, I think she probably has the right attitude - post-Brexit decisions, so I think it will be the right thing. May's triumph came after Energy Minister, Andrea Leadsom, abruptly withdrew from the contest on July 11. Leadsom withdrew because May carries over 60 percent of support from her party, while she has less than 25 percent of support. Moreover, Leadsom was barely known to the British public until she emerged as a prominent voice in pro-Brexit decision. Now, the most urgent thing for the new minister to deal with are the problems following Brexit. ==THERESA MAY next British Prime Minister == Brexit means Brexit, and we're going to make a success of it. There will be no attempts to remain in the EU. Besides promising the best deal for Britain in leaving the EU, May also stated in her victory announcement that she will unite the nation and make Britain a country that works for everyone. The 59 year-old May will work out her "Better Britain" plan during her term in office. TRANSLATED BY：ARIEL HSIEH
