North Macedonia goes to the polls amid rain and rancour

Ethnic and political divisions may affect turnout in former Yugoslav republic’s presidential election Voters in North Macedonia braving heavy rain have begun casting ballots in the second round of a race that will not only decide the country’s new president but could determine whether the tiny state is plunged into political turmoil. In what has become a showdown between pro-EU and nationalist forces, much depends on turnout. Before polling stations opened, speculation was rife that voter participation could fall below the 40% needed for the election to be valid, fears compounded by the weather.

Jude review – Hardy's hero becomes a Syrian refugee in Howard Brenton's reworking

HAMPSTEAD THEATRE, LONDON Brenton’s ambitious but muddled new drama follows a gifted young Syrian woman who attracts the attentions of an Oxford classicist, Euripides and MI5 Edward Hall ends his 10-year tenure as Hampstead’s director with a rum piece: a new play by Howard Brenton loosely inspired by Thomas Hardy’s Jude the Obscure and featuring Euripides as a character. Packed with quotes from the Iliad, the play has occasional Homeric “winged words” and advances some intriguingly unfashionable ideas, but lacks internal logic. Brenton’s Jude is a self-taught Syrian refugee who comes to Britain seeking to fulfil her dream of getting into Oxford. Her gift for languages, ancient Greek especially, is spotted by a Portsmouth teacher who first champions but then abandons her. Continue reading...
