News today.............
Lord Browne tendered his resignation after the lifting by
the UK courts of a legal injunction preventing a newspaper
group from publishing details of hisprivate life.

Lord Browne said: "In my 41 years with BP I have kept my
private life separate from my business life.
I have always regarded my sexuality as a personal matter,
to be kept private. It is a matter of deep disappointment
that a newspaper group has now decided that allegations
about my personal life should be made public
