There was little outward sign of celebration. Government offices were closed for the day, and schools shut till the end of the week. The politicians adjourned for seven days, after which they will discuss the adoption of a national anthem and flag.

The- most surprising aspect of the decision was in the timing. Ever since, the "peace operation of July 1974. when more than 20,000 Turkish troops invaded 30 per cent of the island, Mr Denktash has been talking of declaring independence. The declaration yesterday can therefore be seen as a calculated move by Mr Denktash to strengthen his hand internationally rather than a serious attempt at total UDI. The 150,000 Turkish Cypriots have their own parliament, government and defence force, but they depend on Greek Cypriots for most of their electricity and water supplies, and on Turkey for security and financial survival.

The US State Department urged a of the new, republic and backed the efforts of the UN Secretary-General as the best approach to settling the Cyprus problem.

The Greek Cypriot leader, President Spyros Kyprianou, called a meeting of his ministers and was quickly in touch by telephone with Mrs Thatcher in London and the Greek Prime Minister in Athens. The move was officially condemned by the Secretary-General of the Commonwealth (of which Cyprus is a member) and by the United Nations' special representative on the island. In northern Cyprus, Mr Denktash, addressed a crowd of several telling them side the hall chanted among other things, If you all hate Thatcher, clap your hands," to the tune of She was coming down the mountain." Miss Jo White, the student union general secretary, announced on the platform that Mr Heseltine could not get through because there were a million people on the stairs." To loud clapping she added "There are 800 of you wanting to hear him one way or another. Wc are trying to find a way of getting him through." Mr Heseltine, who had been due to address the students at midday, finally appeared on the platform at 12.52 pin and was greeted with a few shouts of Murderer" as he took hold of the microphone. He was wearing a shift borrowed from a police inspector.

At the meeting the Defence Secretary struggled to speak against a barrage of heckling. Mr Heseltine approached the student union building, flanked by Special Branch officers, at a brisk pace, and when he reached the steps amid boos and claps, he turned aside to shake hands with a supporter. It was then that a young man lunged forward and aimed a plastic missile at Mr Heseltinc's It splattered the minister's face and with a turpentine-based paint, which covered the side of his face aric back of his head, and dribbled from his chin on to his shirf.

While Mr Heseltine was having the paint washed out many of the 800 students in without warning is an absolute disgrace." Later Mr Clay complained to the Speaker. He claimed that the sessional order obligation to keep the access to Westminster had been abused by the police. Police reinforcements who arrived to move the demonstrators carried their own banner, black with white lettering reading You are causing an obstruction. Please leave the area at once." The banner was used several times to. block the view of camera nien taking pictures of the Inside the Commons Mrs Thatcher flatly refused to describe the circumstances in which she and President Reagan might agree to the use of cruise missiles based on British soil.

But she claimed that it would be a joint decision which was "tantamount to a British veto." Mr Kinnock clearly angered the Prime Minister by accusing her of failing to understand the difference between partnership in Nato and being a lackey of the American President." The exchanges emphasised the gulf between Mrs Thatcher and the new management of the official Opposition. Mr Kinnock rose more than once during Prime Minister's questions, demanding guidance about the circumstances in which Mrs Thatcher might agree to the use of the cruise missiles jiow established at Greenham Common. The Prime Minister replied that she was unwilling to answer such a question. on. the grounds that "it" would be immensely valuable to the Soviet Union to know the precise circumstances of such arrangements.

The Labour Government had not done so, and neither would she. Mr Kinnock told Mrs Thatcher that there had been times when it was possible to accept her credentials on multilateral disarmament, but recent events had shown that they were no longer genuine. Mrs -Thatcher replied in the best traditions of humourless repartee. "You are talking absolute rubbish," she told Mr Kinnock. At Greenham the demonstrators were arrested after sitting down and linking arms to block two gates.

Earlier 141 women had been arrested at Grcenham Common as a Kecorid Starlifter transporter plane flew into the base.

Early this morning charges were being preferred.

The protest and arrests followed the first genuinely vigorous clash in the Commons between the Prime Minister and Labour's new leader Mr Neil Kinnock.

Several MPs outside parliament to watch the demonstrators, who good-naturedly sang anti-cruise missile songs to the music of drums and tambourines. Traffic around Parliament Square was diverted. After seeing the demonstrators removed, Mr Robert Atkins, Tory MP for South Ribblc, said If it is raised tomorrow in the Commons I shall have great pleasure in defending the police.

The break-in at the main customs warehouse near the international terminal, happened after the central alarm, system had been switched off by officials tired of. its constant ringing in the night. The breakrin has seriously embarrassed airport security chiefs because of implication that It was organised, by individuals with a close knowledge of -the secret alarm systems.

The incident occurred last Saturday night after an officer had disconnected the alarm linking the -Queen's Warehouse with the Heathrow police station. This had. apparently become a. regular practice each evening, because 'of the number of false alarms to airport police in the middle of the night- robbers were- to walk into the but their plan was a device linked directly the alarm company's headquarters signalled a malfunction' -and sent a' message saying engineer required."

He was interested in the market for lie detectors in the private sector. The Foreign Office, which referred inquir-iries to a spokesman for GCHQ, said that polygraphs we're a matter for Sir Robert Armstrong, the Cabinet Secretary, who is responsible for security. It did, however, point to Mrs Thatcher's statement earlier this year that lie detectors would be used in a- pilot scheme to test their feasibility, as the security commission had recommended in its report on the Prime affair. But Civil Service unions, some of which are threatening industrial action at argue that polygraphs-are unreliable and a potential threat to civil liberties.
