- Britain falls silent to mark Armistice Day

Among those laying wreaths at the Whitehall monument today were Lieutenant General Sir Robin Ross, of the Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen and Families Association (SSAFA), representatives of the Western Front Association, pupils from five schools, the Victoria Cross and George Cross Association, the Royal Star and Garter Homes and serving officers from the army, navy and RAF.

- Guardian Daily: George Osborne unveils £6.25bn spending cuts
The chancellor, George Osborne, has announced £6.25bn worth of cuts to government spending. Among the measures announced today was the abolition of the Child Trust Fund. Columnist Polly Toynbee says it was a successful way for poorer families to provide security for their children. In our Westminster office, Michael White says the Liberal Democrats' David Laws, chief secretary to the Treasury, was the coalition government's hatchet man.Julian Borger, our diplomatic editor, looks at the impact of the Guardian's revelation of how Israel attempted to sell nuclear weapons to South Africa's apartheid-era regime.And art critic Adrian Searle gives his view of the latest artwork to adorn the empty fourth plinth in London's Trafalgar Square - Yinka Shonibare's replica of Nelson's warship HMS Victory in a bottle.Jon DennisTim MabyPhil Maynard

- Lower Ninth | Theatre review
Trafalgar Studios, LondonThe Donmar Warehouse has moved into this Whitehall studio for a 12-week season to promote the work of young directors. Charlotte Westenra, the first beneficiary, has come up with a fine, well-acted production of a 70-minute play by Beau Willimon. However, though set during the trauma of Hurricane Katrina, it ultimately lacks real drama.Willimon appears to have taken a hint from Paul Chan's alfresco Waiting for Godot, performed in the hard-hit ninth ward of New Orleans. He shows us two African-Americans stranded on a rooftop, hoping for rescue, the corpse of a friend at their feet. Malcom, a tough guy turned Bible student, and his young companion, E-Z, bicker, banter and play guessing games to pass the time. What emerges is an uneasy father-son relationship, relieved by Malcom's occasional retelling of Bible stories – the best of which offers an alternative version of the Flood in which Noah becomes the ultimate black survivor.But Willimon resorts to one particularly desperate dramatic device, easily guessable from the programme, to keep the situation going. And it strikes me as bizarre that his two characters hardly refer to the one subject that would be uppermost on their minds: the staggering federal and civic incompetence that saw so many lives sacrificed.The pleasure lies in the performance. Ray Fearon as Malcom displays a formidable power that suggests he could have punched something more than a Bible in his time, and Anthony Welsh is full of raw anger as the younger man. Despite Westenra's vividly atmospheric production, though, Willimon's play is a self-conscious piece that tells us little about the criminal negligence behind the disaster.Rating: 3/5TheatreHurricane KatrinaNatural disasters and extreme weatherMichael Billingtonguardi トラファルガースタジオ、LondonTheドンマーギャラリーは、若い監督の作品を促進するための12週間は、シーズンに向けて、このホワイトスタジオに移動しています
- When will women storm the arts fortress? | Vanessa Thorpe
My reminiscences of last year's Bastille Day, when I took to Antony Gormley's plinth, were soured by figures confirming women significantly absent from arts eventsI know exactly where I was a year ago. It was sunny and very warm, but there was also a strong breeze blowing through Trafalgar Square. At least there was if you were standing on top of a plinth.One of 2,400 people picked at random from a list of 34,520 registered names, I was among those lucky enough to take part in Antony Gormley's One & Other project. The idea, as you probably remember, was to create a living, changing statue in the middle of a formal London square; to make an artwork that might build up a picture of contemporary life, or perhaps just a picture of the kind of people who can imagine themselves standing alone above their fellow citizens for an hour.My date was July 14, Bastille Day, and so, as a way of making it more entertaining (not to mention as a bit of a disguise), I dressed up as Marie Antoinette. In the revolutionary spirit, I held up slogans culled from a variety of radical movements and I gave out free cake to those who gathered to watch.But it was more than a slice of cake to me. It was my little slice of history and a moment of actually being involved in an artistic endeavour for once, rather than just writing about them.So it was a bit upsetting for me to read yesterday, of all days, how comparatively few women are professionally engaged in the broader arts scene. Research released by the new campaigning group UK Feminista reveals some statistics that, though I already half-suspected them to be true, are sad to see in print.For instance, 71% of performances at Glastonbury this summer were by all-male acts, and 1.6% of the conductors and 4.1% of the composers featured in the forthc 昨年のフランス革命記念日、私はアントニーゴームリーの台座にかかった私の思い出は、数字の女性を大幅に芸術eventsI欠席確認することで悪化立て続けに正確に私が1年前知っている
- It's like locking up Burma's Billy Bragg | Melissa Benn
Aung San Suu Kyi does not stand alone. Let's show our support for Zarganar and the thousands persecuted by a brutal juntaNext Monday afternoon a small demonstration in Trafalgar Square will draw attention to the desperate situation of a talented writer with a wicked sense of humour lying sick and isolated in a cell in the northern part of his country, imprisoned solely for questioning and satirising his country's regime.Not tempted to read on? Briefly imagine the prosecution and long-term imprisonment of the cartoonist Steve Bell or the comedy writer Armando Iannucci for satirical works, or the singer Billy Bragg for inappropriate activism, and you begin to grasp both the significance and madness of this situation.Maung Thura, better known as Zarganar, is a Burmese writer, poet, activist and comedian, most recently arrested for leading a private relief effort to deliver aid to victims of cyclone Nargis, which struck Burma in May 2008. When it became clear that the government was obstructing international aid to the devastated Irrawaddy delta and surrounding areas, Zarganar led efforts to raise and distribute aid from private donors.Despite assurances from the authorities that private donors would be given free access to cyclone-affected areas, he and at least 21 others were later arrested for their participation in the voluntary aid effort. Among his reported crimes was giving interviews to overseas radio stations and other media about his work and the needs of the people. He also ridiculed state media reports about the effect of the cyclone.A 59-year prison sentence was later reduced to 35 years. Two years on, there are desperate worries about his health following a collapse in prison last April. He is said to be suffering from heart problems, jaundice and a stomach u アウンサンスーチーは、スタンドアロンではありません
