RISE AND FALL OF THE BRITISH PREMIER.
The man who was drawing social security at the age of sixteen, ended up premiering his country at the age of 47. I guess miracles still happen. The story of John Major is a story of fate charting a road, its a story of God playing dice, but more than anything else its a story of a man learning to succumb to the offerings of life and coming out the victor. In his teen years John had been a player of cricket, and players and aficionados of Cricket know that in the game of life winner is not always the most deserving candidate, and the ablest performer doesn't always lift the trophy. Cricket has the uncanny, but life like knack of bringing second fiddle players to the limelight and drowning true Titans in deepest abysses of ocean oblivion. Anyone who knows Cricket realizes that Cricket is by chance, therefore the universal truth that life is by chance too, is relatively more intelligible for him. Cricketers find the notion of fate, rather easier to grasp. However, John Major's acquaintance with fate dates much further back to the time when John could hardly pronounce the first syllable of the word Cricket. Ex British Premier (1990-97), leading Tory politician and somewhat a hoi polloi icon, John Major (1943- ) has had close relations with fate and fortune since the beginning of his life. He was born in the classic Disney traditions of your typical destined child. Like Moses floated across the hazards of Nile in a Disney animated with his life jeopardized amongst hordes of brushing dangers; brushing but not touching, John Major found his way in this world across thronging risks before he stabilized.
John's birth was an uneven pregnancy, through which her mother who was thirty-seven at the time, almost died. The importance of this one incident could not have been more conclusive. Later developments clearly proved that John Major could never have been John Major had it not been for her mother.
