| Editorial comments: | Sir Geoffrey's letter precedes MT's. The exchange is followed by a short press release issued earlier in the day. BBC Radio News Report 2300 1 November 1990 suggests that some kind of statement was issued from No.10 - probably through briefing - to the effect that MT accepted Geoffrey Howe’s resignation "more in sorrow than in anger". |
