Tower of London illuminated for Armistice tribute – BBC News
Around 10,000 flames have been lit at the Tower of London to mark the centenary of the end of World War I.
The tribute, called Beyond The Deepening Shadow, was designed by Tom Piper, the artist behind the poppy installation in 2014.
It will run each night until Armistice day 2018.

Iceland has voted against resuming membership talks with the European Union, public broadcaster RUV has reported, with just one constituency’s votes left to count.
It reported that 52.5% of the 188,496 votes so far counted had rejected the government’s proposal, while 47.5% had said yes. Some 9,500 votes separated them.
Prime Minister Kristrún Frostadóttir’s centre-left government promised to hold a referendum by 2027, but brought it forward because of international tensions, including US President Donald Trump’s threats against Greenland.

Seven people have died after a passenger boat capsized near northern Cyprus.
Search and rescue operations are under way to find 23 people missing, said Ünal Üstel, prime minister of the self-declared Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus.
He says 267 people were on board the vessel when it capsized, and 237 have been rescued.
The boat left from the northern Cypriot port of Kyrenia at 11:58 local time (09:58 BST) and officials said it capsized around four nautical miles into its journey to Turkey.

Ukraine’s progress against Russian forces in its southern regions of Kherson and Zaporizhzhia has been far more limited than its successes in the north-east.
Both sides come under regular fire as they rely heavily on artillery to push forward.
The crackdown on people who do not support Russian rule in occupied areas is rising, with soldiers going door-to-door to check on who lives in each house and whether they could be drafted into fighting for Russia.

Tried to go and see this today. Just a pity it meant a two and a half hour wait in the rain to queue to see it and so we didn't bother. Why we weren't allowed to just go and look like we did with the poppies, I really don't know. They must have had a similar turnout of people in 2014 and could cope with the numbers then……

On 28 September 1066, with a “favourable wind”, William landed unopposed at Pevensey and, within a few days, raised fortifications at Hastings. 1067 city of London corporation formed …. questions ?

Honestly surprised this hasn't been banned to please the very few who find this offensive. They didn't fight two world wars for their country to be given away or to please the minority but that's sadly the way things are going. We have the most liberal "right wing" government there is and it's pathetic

The bigotry in the comment section is deeply disturbing… Can we not just use it to remember those who fought and remember the same hate that caused these wars in the first place.

The Great war was great for the banksters – just not so great for the poor saps that had to fight in it. Just Christians killing Christians whilst the banksters sat back in their counting houses and consolidated their power over the West. I see nothing to honour here.

Not the ROYAL WAR ! On your knees while you are over run with immigrants and your FAKE Queen reproduces like a rabbit to rob the people of more and more and more while they all hide behind walls. The British People are suffering!!! Stupid Windsors and Rothchilds! Time for a hanging…I give a damn less about something 200 years ago! Then the Royals want money to rebuild old broken down building and sky scrapers to make the people feel locked in a prison with no views but of more walls! Time to KICK THE WINDSORS TO THE CURB!

The poppy the ancient symbol of being asleep. Today the poppy is used to celebrate JP Morgan's World War One. It was a stunning victory for the bankers.

You racist morons in the comments making it out like only white Britons died in the war. It was a WORLD war. Britain had an empire, and many non-Britons were forced to fight on behalf of the UK. GET AN EDUCATION!

But the centenary of the end of the war hasn’t happened yet. The armistice went into effect on November 11th.

Why has it been done on the 5th? Surely it was the 11th when the Armistice was signed, no?

Two Word Wars which achieved absolutely nothing, killing millions of Europeans and other ethnic groups in the process. Now Europe is in decline, our leaders are pushing us into unnecessary wars and Europeans are being replaced in their own countries.
