John Major's Government - Part 1 (Q and A)
Listen now
Description
In this episode, my girlfriend Alice quizzes me on all things John Major! She's coming at this as a relative newbie to British political history and asks some both thought provoking and gossip-based questions! Hopefully, both novices and experts on the topic should find this a great listen!     I'm also planning to do a 'part 2' to this podcast where I go deeper into the policies of the Major government and their impacts at the time and more lasting impressions on politics today.     For this episode my main sources of inspiration were: ·       John Major's Autobiography ·       John Major: An Unsuccessful Prime Minister? - book by Kevin Hickson ·       The Major Years - documentary from the BBC ·       The Presidents & the Prime Ministers with  Iain Dale Podcast- John Major episode ·       Prime Ministerial, from the New Statesman Podcast - John Major episode I'd really recommend all of these to anybody who enjoys the subject matter!
