John Major
You don't forget crises and neither does the Queen.
John Major
I inherited a sick economy and passed on a sound one. But one abiding regret for me is that, in between, I did not have the resources to put in place the educational and social changes about which I cared to much I made only a beginning, and it was not enough.
John Major
I want to see us build a country that is at ease with itself, a country that is confident and a country that is able and willing to build a better quality of life for all its citizens.
John Major
Let's turn British inventions into British industries, British factories and British jobs. Let them make pounds for us, not dollars marks or yen for others.
John Major
I don't think it's the role of the prime minister to court the press.
