TOPIC: John Major terrific on Marr

John Major terrific on Marr 12 Years, 6 Months ago  
He really sounds like he knows and understands what is going on in Europe.
I'm not a Conservative and I loathe Cameron but I wish Major was running things.

Ex-leaders often sound much better once the pressure is off and they can speak their mind. Even Nixon ended up sounding quite sensible about global politics. The problem with Major was that he couldn't control his cabinet, and was terrified of the media, so he'd be hopeless in the current situation (but good sitting on a sofa having a relaxed chat before lunch somewhere nice).

You have to remember that we had 15% interest rate under Major. A disaster for the vast majority of us mortgage holders, but great for savers.

I could live on 15% interest; it was what I saved for.

Although it put paid to any plan that we would join the Euro for many years to come - we are in worse debt than most countries in Europe, but at least we have the relative security of the pound.
