Well Said Sir John Major on Cyclops Brown:If a burglar has ransacked your house, you don't normally invite him back to fix the security locks."

Former PM Sir John Major said:

Gordon Brown was responsible for the economic 'train wreck' the country faced, said former prime minister Sir John Major on Sunday.

Mr Brown had squandered the growth he inherited as chancellor and it was ironic he now had to fix the problem as prime minister, said Sir John.

If a burglar has ransacked your house, you don't normally invite him back to fix the security locks,' said the former Conservative prime minister.

Britain faced an 'avalanche' of job losses next year, Sir John told the And rew Marr Show on the BBC.
