What do I say about why I left my last job? (update)

They always ask why I left, and I freeze. I would rather hear the honest version than the polite one. I do not want to blame the company. What do you say?

If a company has been in the news for layoffs, you can mention that. Often the interviewer already knows.

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.
