There are great demonstrations of joy in London, at Buckingham Palace, Mansion House and Downing Street as Britons celebrate the end of the war. King George V made a brief speech at Buckingham Palace. "With you I rejoice. Thank God for the victories which the Allied Armies have won and have brought hostilities to an end. Peace is within sight."
