^^A friend of mine is an artist, and was commissioned to do a bunch of sketches of the inside of 10 Downing Street when John Major was living there.
He had been sitting in the corner of the cabinet room during a meeting, and when the meeting finished he found himself alone with John Major, who asked to see the sketches and personally gave him a guided tour of the whole place.
Apparently he was a really nice bloke.
I've never heard of anyone who's met John Major in person say anything bad about him. Dispite the media portrayal, most also say he is/was very charismatic.
