"Failure of Major’s EU policy 1990 – 1997" - an article by Dr. Martin Holmes for the Bruges Group:

The Bruges Group

Quoted from this piece.

The final verdict must be that John Major had the great opportunity to have led the country toward a fundamental renegotiation of Britain’s relationship with continental Europe. He could have raised the possibility of outright withdrawal had he not been obsessed with the reaction of the Conservative Eurofanatics. He could have accepted the truth that Britain was incapable of changing the European Union from within, because continental interests and values are profoundly different from our own.

I agree with every word of that.

John Major proves "The Peter Principle" promoted way beyond his level of incompetence , without this man we would not have had the blight of B-Liar and NuLab over the UK.
