Explaining a layoff without sounding bitter - any advice?

They always ask why I left, and I freeze. I worked as an electrician's helper before this. I also do not want to seem like a risk. Do they ask follow-ups?

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it 4 months ago, and it settled down once I kept a simple log of every call and form.

I keep it to two sentences: the company cut my team, and here is what I am proud of and what I am looking for next.
