SIR John Major is currently a president of the Chatham House think tank.

Chatham House is ranked the second most influential think tank in the world after the Brookings Institution, and the world's most influential non-US think tank.

It's mission is /to analyse and promote the understanding of major international issues and current affairs. It is the originator of the Chatham House Rule./
He was PM for seven years. To my mind that gives him sufficient authority to speak.
He is an ex-PM of Great Britain, so I can't see why he doesn't have a right to say what he likes. Whether its worth listening to of course, is another matter altogether.

I more I hear about John Major, the more I realise he is not the 'Faceless Grey Man' a lot of people once thought he was!
He disappeared from view shortly after his disastrous defeat of 1997 and wasn't heard of for years. I have never understood why he didn't go straight into the Lords, after the 1997 election, which would have been his right. Perhaps he should, because he is speaking sense here, to a large extent.
I bet our Scottish communist has no issue with those two fellow reds, Gordon Brown and Tony Blair, speaking out...and at least JM didn't screw up a war.
Churchill, Macmillan and Heath all refused the Lords, though Macmillan later accepted an earldom.
he talks a lot of sense, more than most
Has been? Also ran?
What drivel!
Major is a very astute ex Prime Minister who talks a good deal of sense.
I listened to what he had to say on the Andrew Marr show this morning and I thought he made a lot of sense, especially about Europe.
He has every right to speak out, the same as has anybody else, why shouldn't he? Does that apply to just Tory ex PMs or Tony Blair and Gordon Brown as well? Or is it just anybody in general you disagree with?
He's a good guy, was let down by the b*st*rds. He gave a great speech to the European clowns last week, and he likes cricket. So lay off!
I must say I'm surprised and pleased to see so much support for him on here.
he was however in charge during Black Wednesday, which cost the country about three and a half billion (but made George Soros a billion). I'd take his economic ideas with a pinch of salt.
Year of the comeback ,didn't gordy brown make a comeback during the Scotland vote
All of the above, as far as I know this country has a right called "free speech"
which means Sir John Major and the rest of the population can say what they like.
Major suffered from similar problems that later beset Gordon Brown, he wasn't suited for the sound bite, celebrity age. We unfortunately judge our politicians on how they come over on TV rather than their ability to do the job. Someone once said something along the line The electorate get the government they deserve.
He was always a has-been even when he was PM. I saw him on the Andrew Marr show and he (Major) looked exactly like his Spitting Image puppet all those years ago. Sorry, but how can you possibly take him seriously!
I think he is entitled to state an opinion, but as the one who signed us up to Maastricht he holds little credibility these days.

The Bumbling Major doesn't know how to shut up. He's the doyen of the waffle
