										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>&#8220;It’s not a game show, you are not there just to provide fodder for the media and project your own career,&#8221; said <strong>John Major</strong> during a recent address. He emphasized the significance of stable governance in UK politics. Major warned against the frequent turnover of prime ministers, stating that it undermines effective leadership.</p>
<p>Major expressed concern that governments have &#8220;lost the capacity to say no.&#8221; This statement reflects his belief that political leaders must prioritize long-term stability over short-term gains.</p>
<p>He believes that the primary role of any government is to leave something better for the next generation. This sentiment resonates deeply in current discussions regarding political legacy within the Conservative Party.</p>
<p>In related news, Sir John Madejski, known for saving Reading FC from liquidation in 1990, is being honored. The council&#8217;s policy committee has introduced a proposal to name the A33 road after him.</p>
<p>Sir John Madejski served as chancellor of the University of Reading from 2007 to 2016. His contributions to both education and sports have been significant, prompting discussions about further recognition.</p>
<p>At a full council meeting in June 2025, councillors unanimously agreed to a resolution following a controversial decision by the Greenshaw Trust regarding Madejski&#8217;s name at the John Madejski Academy. This resolution underscores the community&#8217;s commitment to preserving his legacy.</p>
<p>John Ennis welcomed suggestions for further recognizing Sir John’s contributions to Reading. The focus on political legacy continues as figures like Major advocate for stability and foresight in governance.</p>
<p>The conversation around prime minister turnover remains critical as Major’s warnings echo through UK politics. His insights are timely as leaders face challenges that require long-term vision and commitment.</p>
