They had already accepted their invitation and the king was to have watched Prince Charles playing polo in a match against Spain on Sunday. The honeymooners are due in Gibraltar on August 1 to embark on a Mediterranean cruise aboard the Royal Yacht Britannia. The Foreign Office said that it had held "exchanges" with the Spanish government about the Royal couple's plans. But it was only when the honeymoon plans became public that it was blown into full diplomatic issue, embarrassing the King and annoying his government.

The future of Gibraltar is still a highly emotive issue in Spain, although there have been guarded hopes lately that the long-running and often bitter dispute could be resolved. Spain has offered to lift border restrictions in return for step-by-step moves which would PauJ Fitzpatrick reports on England's victory over Australia in one of the most exciting Test matches played. ENGLAND yesterday became only the second side to win a Test after having to follow on but the captain and hero of the day used the occasion to get involved In a war of words with the press. After the 18 runs victory at Headingley in the Third test, Mike Brearley, the captain, attacked the reporting of his inquiry about the Austra- lian fast bowler Dennis Liilee constantly leaving the field to change his shirt. "I object to this form of war.

There was no complaint, only a query. If this happens again, I will not talk to the he said. If you want me to talk to you, you had better be straight with me. I don't give a stuff." Bob Willis, whose eight wickets for 43 helped bowl out Australia for 111, claimed that the reporting of small-mined quotes from players under pressure had taken over from writing about the game. Kim Hughes the Australian captain was also in an attacking mood but on a more predictable line.

He claimed the wicket was loaded in favour Match report, page 22 Leader comment, page 14 of medium pace and fast bowlers and for good measure added that he had not been happy about the pitches prepared for the previous Tests at Trent Bridge and Lord's. The day had started with England 351 for nine after appearing to be heading for an innings defeat during Monday's play. Willis was quickly out to leave Ian Botham undefeated on 149 and Australia needing 130 to win and go 2-0 up in the series which would have almost certainly meant winning back the Ashes. It finished with the series level at 1-1 and England becoming the first side since A. E.

Although Australia lost Wood quickly, Dyson, who scored a century in the 'firsts innings and Chappell put them in control with a stand of 43 before Willis took 3 wickets in 11 deliveries without conceding a run. Hughes, aiiop ana Border collected ducks and when Dyson, Marsh and Lawson fell, Australia were 75 for eight, still 65 runs adrift. Lillee and Bright gathered 35 runs for the ninth wickets, but Willis ensured a win for England by having Lillee caught by Gatting and bowling Bright middle stump.

From a position of 135 for seven in their second innings still 92 runs short of making Australia bat. again, England Had fashioned one of the most remarkable wins in Test history. There was a time on Monday when odds of 500-1 From Alex Brummer and Harold Jackson in Ottawa The leaders of the seven industrial nations, declaring that the fight against unemployment and inflation is their highest priority, yesterday ended the Ottawa summit with a call for a fresh "spirit of cooperation and harmony" to meet the challenges faced by the Western democracies. The final communique, issued after a joint press conference by the seven leaders who have met for the last two days at the Chateau Montebello, 40 miles from the capital, displayed signs of the disagreements which have marred the meetings. The United States in the closing hours of the summit forced on to the communique an undertaking that the Western countries should consult on the export of strategic and related technology to the Soviet Union." And at the final press conference the French President Mr Mitterrand, and Chancellor Schmidt of West Germany, continued to refer to the difficulties Peter Jenkins, page 15 created by the high American interest rates.

Mr Schmidt said it would be necessary to take new measures in Bonn to counter this. The Prime Minister, Mrs Thatcher, laid particular stress her closing statement on tne communique's assertion that reducing public borrowing and stable monetary growth were critical to reducing inflation. The leaders also jointly declared that it was highly desiraoie to minimise volatility in interest rates and exchanfie rates;" It stated greater stability in the foreign exchange and financial markets is important for the development, of the world economy." President Mitterrand, exoandins on this theme, cata logued the damage done to the European economies by fluc tuating exchange rates. But the leaders gave no clues to wnat they proposed to do to counter these currency market movements in the light of President Reagan's opposition to Government intervention on the foreign exchange markets. in their communique tne seven leaders announced three new initiatives for the coming months.

The most controversial, only agreed in the dying moments of the summit at the insistence of President Reagan, was that the Western countries should adopt consultations and "coordination" to ensure that in the field of East-West relations economic policies continue to be compatible with our political and security objectives." The second major decision taken was in the field of aid to the developing countries.

GU I Fainting 1 1 By David McKie THERE is a strong public desire to see King Charles and Queen Diana on the throne before long, according to a Marplan poll carried out for the Guardian. The poll indicates that 63 per cent of people in Britain think the Queen should abdicate at some future date and 43 per cent think she should go within five years.

Although in some countries, such as Holland, it is taken for granted that the monarch may abdicate at some stage in favour of a younger successor, in Britain the only recorded abdication is that of King Edward VIII in 1936 to marry Mrs Wallis Simpson. Women, shown by the poll to be stronger supporters of the monarchy than men, are more in favour than men of the Queen's abdication. Of those who favoured abdication in Marplan's sample, 68 per cent thought the Queen should make way for Prince Charles by the time she is 60 in five years from now. Twenty-five per cent of those favouring abdication thought she should retire by 65. grant Spanish citizens the same rights as citizens of the European Community.

Informed sources in Madrid said King Juan Carlos was not aware of the couple's plans to visit the Rock when he accepted their wedding invitation. As a member of the European monarchy, he would have had a special place at the service in St Paul's next Wednesday. The Spanish Government felt it inopportune for the royal couple to visit Gibraltar, which Britain captured from the Spanish in the early eighteenth century, while such delicate diplomatic discussions are going on. King Juan Carlos, faced with the necessity not to alienate the more nationalistic sections of the armed forces, had little alternative but to send back his wedding invitation. The future of Gibraltar is also linked with Spain's desire to join NATO, a proposal bitterly opposed by the left-wing.

The King is now expected to be represented by a senior official, possibly a member of the Spanish nobility. A Buckingham Palace spokesman commented: "As always, when members of the Royal For all that, the Queen remains the member of the Royal Family whom most people would most like to see visiting the place where they live. She was named as first preference by 34 per cent of the sample, with Prince Charles, preferred by 25 per cent, running second. But Lady Diana is moving up the charts fast: she now marginally ahead of the Queen Mother as the third most popular "royal" on this test. The Queen also gets the highest marks, on a scale Poll details, page 5 from nought to ten, for the job she does for Britain Prince Charles rates second and the Queen Mother third.

Ladv Diana has especially strong appeal for young people 15 per cent named her as the member of the Royal Family they would most like to see, against a national average of 10 per cent. Prince Charles is also significantly more popular among the young than among the population as' a whole.

"They are not really suitable as pets and this is made clear to their owners. But we are always happy to send former owners photographs and progress reports about their dogs." This kind of talk was not good enough for Mrs Beningfield, who has enlisted the help of her local MP, Mr Eldon Griffiths, in her campaign to have Max de-mobbed. "I will be taking this right up to Mr Nott, the Minister," she said yesterday.

"I am prepared to buy Max out of the Army if necessary." Spencer's mother, Elizabeth Orbell, is less keen on having Max back and told the Ministry so "If my sister wants a dog," she said yesterday, "she can go out and buy one." Foreign Office is consulted. But the nature of tneir advice nas to remain confidential." The Foreign Office said that Spanish authorities suggested alternative arrangements so that the Royal couple could bypass Gibraltar. Whitehall officials pointed out last night that Britain had been working hard to try to strengthen the democratic process in Spain. Senior ministers were re ported to be irritated by Spain's reaction, especially as the visit is such a brief one. Mr Albert McQuarrie, Conservative MP for Aberdeenshire East, immediately tabled a Com mons motion expressing "dis gust" at the Spanish decision and calling on the British gov ernment to terminate ine Lisbon Agreement which proposed more openness between Gibraltar and Spain.

"If they are going to treat our Koyalty like that we should cease to have anything to do with the Spaniards," he said. "I will be calling on the British Government also to oppose the accession of Spain to the Common Market." He was supported by Mr Michael Brown, Conservative Turn to back page, col. 3 cess Margaret and Princess Anne fare badly in the popularity stakes. Princess Anne is particularly unpopular with young people Two out of three people believe that the amount of money being spent, on the wedding is justified and 29 per cent think it is not. Strongest support for the view that the cost is not justified 35 per cent was found among people under 35.

The North begrudges the money more than the South. Sixty-nine per cent of respondents in the South approved of the spending on the wedding, compared with 64 per cent in the North. And 32 per cent in the North thought the cost unjustified, compared with 26 per cent in the South. There is also overwhelming support for the monarchy as an institution. Three out of four people said the advantages outweighed the cost, to the taxpayer 22 per cent thought the opposite.

There was no significant difference in the attitudes of people in the North and South on this test. Jobless figures a record By Keith Harper and Ian Aitken Another huge rise in unemployment has been recorded again this month to a record total of 2,851,623, representing 11.8 per cent the working population. The increase of 171,153 between June and July is the highest figure since the war, as well as being the highest recorded government unemployment statistic. In 1932, a total of 2,813,000 were unemployed. The Government had warned in advance that the total could exceed three million this month because of the civil servants' dispute.

The impact, Glasgow's plight, page 15 Leader comment, page 14 Parliament, page 21 Pressure on MSC, page 19 however, was not as great as the Department of Employment had feared, although it believes that the figures have been artificially raised by 20,000. The Government is to face a formal censure motion from the Opposition, condemning its economic policies and their impact on the unemployment figures. The censure motion almost certainly means that the Commons will have to sit until August, shortening the customary long summer recess by another week. Mr foot gave formal notice of the censure motion in the Commons yesterday. The odds now are that the Prime Minister and Mr Foot will face each other across the despatch box next week.

He agreed with Hughes that the pitches were helping pace bowlers. "I don't think Nottingham or Leeds were up to Test match standard.

The Palestinian guerrilla leader, Yasser Arafat, meanwhile, was reported to have told the United Nations Secretary-General, Dr Waldheim that he was ready to observe an unofficial ceasefire provided that Israel did likewise. After two hours of talks with the Prime Minister, Mr Begin, last night Mr Habib told whaling now.

A story of heroism, secrecy and of service to Britain. A story that cannot yet fully be told and would, in any case, take the dual pens of Jonn ie Carre and Barbara Woodhouse to tell it. Two months ago Max was a three-year-old Alsatian dog living happily with his owner, nine-year-old Spencer Orbell, in rural Suffolk.

Max was a little boisterous and Spencer and his mum decided a short course at the Army dog-training centre at Melton Mowbray would help curb some of Max's natural exuberance. Spencer was never to see Max again. He was not allowed to. Appeals to the training centre fell on deaf ears. Max, said the Ministry of Defence, would never return.

They added, for good measure, that there was now no such dog as Max. He had been given a new name and identity and was working on a security mission Friends of the Earth, 9 Poland Street.
