This is the BBC, it is six o'clock and here is the news. The government today announce that it would resign. The Prime Minister made the announcement in a speech to the Commons this afternoon. The decision was taken in the light of the recent defeat of the Government's prices and incomes policy and also recent defeats in local by-elections. A general election is expected next month. The civil war in Rutania continues. The Military Junta which last month overthrew the Government appealed today to America for military aid. At home again, the recent strike by toolmakers at Dagwood's Car Plant has finished. The men are expected to return to work on Wednesday. A gorilla escaped from London Zoo and attacked four passers-by. It was later recaptured safely and returned to its cage. A spokesman for London Zoo said that the animal probably felt lonely. Finally, the weather forecast: the night will be fine whith scattered showers in the North. And that's the end of the news.
