John Major

Sir John Major is a British politician who served as Prime Minister of the United Kingdom and Leader of the Conservative Party from 1990 to 1997. Rising from a modest background, he held several cabinet positions under Margaret Thatcher before succeeding her as Prime Minister. His premiership was marked by the implementation of the Citizen's Charter, the replacement of the Poll Tax, and a pivotal role in the Northern Ireland peace process. Since leaving the House of Commons in 2001, he has focused on writing, charity work, and political commentary, frequently advocating for moderate conservative views.
