Sir John Major was the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom in 1992.

Sir John Major was the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom from 1990 November 28 to 1997 May 2. He was a banker by profession. Major first became prime minister when rising dissent within the Conservative party caused Michael Heseltine to challenge Margaret Thatcher for the leadership. As a result, Major became the leader of the Conservative Party and thus prime minister. Major's role as prime minister saw him lead negotiations in the formation of the EU, as well as participating in the Gulf War and the crisis in Serbia. However, the public's continued disenchantment with the Conservative Party after 17 years led to a large victory for Labour in the 1997 elections. Major would continue on as Leader of the Opposition for a few months before resigning.

The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland contains England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, which do not have separate prime ministers.
