Iran’s missile supply to Moscow may reveal true scale of Pezeshkian’s powers
Tue, 10 Sep 2024 18:03:09 GMT
Despite desire to improve relations with Europe, the president has put Iran back on the sanctions treadmill
Iran’s decision to sell Russia short-range missiles supplementing Moscow’s existing supplies appears, on the surface, to be a political reversal for Masoud Pezeshkian, Iran’s new reformist president.
He was elected on a promise to lift sanctions and develop more balanced relations with the east and west, especially Europe. The bulk of his diplomatic appointments, including the retention of the former foreign minister Javad Zarif as an adviser, underscored that intention, and already a lively debate had started in Tehran about the extent to which Iran and Russia’s interests truly aligned.

Blinken says Russia has received new ballistic missiles from Iran
Tue, 10 Sep 2024 15:18:48 GMT
US and Europe impose new sanctions on Iran in response to supply of weapons that US says Russia could use in Ukraine
Russia has received new deadly ballistic missiles from Iran for use in Ukraine and is likely to use them, the US secretary of state, Antony Blinken, announced on Tuesday in London as he prepared to travel with the UK foreign secretary, David Lammy, to Kyiv.
The news, confirmed by the US for the first time and seen as of huge significance to the battlefield balance ahead of Ukraine’s difficult winter, led the US and Europe to impose new sanctions on Iran, so apparently slamming the door on the prospect of a rapprochement between the new reformist Iranian government and the west.

‘Eating the pets’ and Project 2025: fact checking the presidential debate
Wed, 11 Sep 2024 02:27:51 GMT
Follow for fact-checking updates on key statements made by the presidential candidates
Donald Trump has repeatedly made false and misleading claims about immigrants “eating the pets” and his connection to Project 2025, among other topics, during his debate with Kamala Harris on Tuesday in Philadelphia.
At the first debate of this presidential election cycle in June – when Joe Biden was still the Democratic party’s nominee – moderators took a completely hands-off approach to factchecking. The light moderation meant that lies and half-truths, most frequently from Trump, went unchallenged during the primetime debate.
The economy lost 2.7m jobs. The unemployment rate increased by 1.7 percentage points to 6.4%.
Paychecks grew faster than inflation. Average weekly earnings for all workers were up 8.4% after inflation.
After-tax corporate profits went up and the stock market set new records. The S&P 500 index rose 67.8%.
The international trade deficit Trump promised to reduce went up. The US trade deficit in goods and services in 2020 was the highest since 2008 and increased 36.3% from 2016.
The number of people lacking health insurance rose by 3 million.
The federal debt held by the public went up, from $14.4tn to $21.6 tn.
Home prices rose 27.5%, and the homeownership rate increased 2.1 percentage points to 65.8%.

But his increasingly toxic rhetoric is having a knock-on effect: some Tesla owners are starting to rethink whether they should own his electric cars any more. Sales fell in July for the second straight quarter.
It’s a shame, because Tesla makes great electric cars. I’d rate the latest Model 3 as one of the best around. It drives nicely, is built well (a previous Tesla foible), is efficient and Tesla sells it at a price that makes other EV makers do a cartoon double-take. But if you’re committed to electric cars, and Musk is turning you off Tesla, there are plenty of other good options. Established carmakers and newcomers have caught up with and, in many cases, overtaken Tesla with their electric offerings. Here are the 10 best non-Tesla EVs you can buy now; I’ve driven them all except the Renault 5, which is expected to arrive in the UK in the first quarter of 2025.

Trying to figure out what to focus on for the first post-Alex Hern TechScape was tricky. (If you missed it last week, you can and should revisit his valedictory newsletter after 11 years at The Guardian). Why? Well, everything is happening all the time now – so there are any number of topics to dive into.
We could talk about the likelihood of Elon Musk running Donald Trump’s “government efficiency commission” if he is re-elected as US president. But that would involve doing another newsletter on Musk, and you may be as tired as Alex was of that. The likelihood of the latter is still a flip of the coin; the likelihood Musk would stop running his multi-trillion-dollar companies for a low-paying government job, less so.

Ross Kemp: Mafia and Britain review – it’s astounding he gets gangsters to open up this much
Tue, 10 Sep 2024 21:00:51 GMT
Why did the Godfather live in a caravan park in Preston? Kemp traces the links between Italian and British hard men … then heads to Italy for a fascinating and revealing encounter
I could waste the bulk of this review describing what happens when Ross Kemp does his documentaries about violent criminals, but if you’re reading this, then you probably have a strong idea what Ross Kemp: Mafia and Britain is going to be like. The ex-EastEnder has a question about something dodgy, talks to some experts about hard men, talks to some hard men, talks to some other hard men about hard men, looks off towards the horizon like a shooting-cap-wearing Philomena Cunk, then asks another, bigger question, setting off the whole chain of hard-men-on-hard-men once again.
But his bombastic style of documentary-making passes an hour very quickly, and Kemp and his team have found a fascinating subject to explore: do or did the mafia ever operate in the UK, despite a persistent belief that one of the oldest organised crime groups in the world never really got a foothold over here? He begins by going back to the early 80s, and the discovery of a body hanging beneath Blackfriars Bridge in the middle of London. I know about this case, having once taken family members on a tourist boat trip down the Thames, where we quickly learned that our cheerful tour guide was more interested in giving the full details of what is now assumed to have been a gruesome mafia hit than he was in pointing out Big Ben.

Hostility towards migrants led to these deaths in the Channel | Letter
Tue, 10 Sep 2024 16:41:49 GMT
Lesley Hare and Simon Shaw say the obsession with detaining and returning people resulted in 12 people dying in one of the worst tragedies since the small boats crisis began
At the end of August, Care4Calais did its usual distribution in the mainly Eritrean settlement known as “the BMX site” (Police clear site where victims of Channel tragedy are said to have lived, 4 September). Our endeavours to support the community with a distribution of blankets, English lessons, games, facilitating haircuts and phone charging were, however, hampered as the police had placed huge boulders on the site as well as clearing tents. It is likely that these actions by the French state, funded partly by the British, hastened a decision to attempt a crossing.
The people we support in this settlement come from a nation that has been called the “North Korea of Africa”. When they claim asylum in the UK, Eritreans have a very high success rate – 99% in 2023.

What does Georgia Meloni teach us about neo-fascism today? | Luisa Rizzitelli
Tue, 10 Sep 2024 13:57:02 GMT
The populism championed by Meloni and her allies casts freedom and human rights not merely as dangers but as targets
“Rome Wasn’t Built in a Day” and neither was the consensus for the neo-fascism of the prime minister, Giorgia Meloni, in Italy. As the well-known activist and writer Michela Murgia warned, “Do not expect fascism to knock on your door, manifesting itself.” Her words highlight how the current government’s fascism has been creeping in over the years, creating enemies by instilling fear and promoting a racial and religious community that excludes those it deems different.
In this community, patriarchy serves as a perfect ally, providing a means of control under the guise of the Natural Order. It enforces “normality” through binary choices, centering the family around the man as the primary provider while relegating the woman to the role of the “object” who generates and cares.

As the Proms’ eight-week season comes to a close, we’d like to hear about your highlights
The end of the BBC’s Proms is in sight: the classical music festival closes on Saturday with the famous Last Night. These last eight weeks have seen 90 concerts in London’s Royal Albert Hall but also this year in Bristol, Gateshead, Aberdeen, Newport, Belfast, and Nottingham, each one live on Radio 3 and online and streamable until 13 October. From the roof-raising sounds of Handel’s Messiah with six choirs on Choral Day, to starry debutants and the welcome return of a much-loved Proms regular, and daleks to Disco it’s been a hugely varied and lively season.
There was new music from Thomas Adès, Dani Howard, Hans Abrahamsen and Francisco Coll – among many others, and rareties included Busoni’s epic piano concerto and Julius Eastman‘s only surviving orchestra score. Our reviewers have loved the Berlin Philharmonic’s two concerts, also Klaus Mäkelä with the Orchestre de Paris, and the Aurora orchestra’s exploration of Beethoven’s choral symphony was another five-star review.

Time travel in the Italian Alps: a glam stay in a 70s design hotel

On the shores of Lake Caldaro in South Tirol, the striking Seehotel Ambach has barely changed since 1973 – and is all the better for it
When I was about seven years old, my aunt brought me back a souvenir from her trip to America – a yellow trouser suit with yellow-and-purple zigzag-patterned flared trousers. I thought it was the coolest thing I had ever seen and, 50 years later, as I walk into the Seehotel Ambach in Italy’s South Tirol, I can’t help thinking how it’s just the kind of look I should be rocking in the 1970s lobby.
We are greeted by a riot of yellow and orange and a selection of the Italian design industry’s greatest hits from the 70s by Joe Colombo, Ettore Sottsass and others. More recognisable to those not in the know about Milan’s design elite are ashtrays advertising Cinzano, glasses promising the delights of Martini and evocative period commercial poster art. At first it’s hard to get your bearings. It’s not unlike walking into a packed vintage shop on Portobello Road or in Margate, except it’s 33C outside and I can see Lake Caldaro glistening through the window.

The Guardian view on Labour’s strategy: focus on fixing Britain, not fiscal deficits | Editorial
Tue, 10 Sep 2024 18:01:55 GMT
Ministers have much bigger problems to deal with than principled dissent, and that’s where the government’s attention should be directed
Sir Keir Starmer’s victory on Tuesday in a Commons vote to cut winter fuel payments for 10 million pensioners was a pyrrhic one. The British prime minister defeated his internal critics – at a price. It turns out that many Labour MPs have an issue with depriving pensioners who struggle to pay their energy bills of help worth up to £300. More than 50 current and suspended Labour MPs did not vote with the government. One veteran leftwinger, Jon Trickett, a former aide to Gordon Brown, voted against it. Some ministers were permitted to stay away. But scores of Labour parliamentarians – from all wings of the party – conspicuously refused to back their government.
Sir Keir should take the win and let the matter rest there. Enough voices have been suppressed in the party that they have long supported. Ministers have much bigger problems to deal with than principled dissent, and it is there that the government’s attention should be directed. Sir Keir’s party ought to be basking in the afterglow of its sweeping electoral victory in July, which ended 14 years of Conservative rule. Instead, he is having to clean up after his vanquished opponents. The Tories governed like characters in The Great Gatsby, smashing up things only to retreat into their “vast carelessness … and let other people clean up the mess they had made”.

How China and a tariffs row cast a shadow over booming US solar power
Tue, 10 Sep 2024 10:00:21 GMT
The source of new renewable energy is also a battleground over China’s cheap exports of panels that has split US firms
The Biden administration touts solar energy as one of its big success stories, a booming new industry that is curbing the effects of the climate crisis and creating high-paying jobs across the country. But the more complicated truth is that the United States is mired in a long-running trade war with China, which is flooding the market with artificially cheap solar panels that carry an uncomfortably large carbon footprint and threaten to obliterate the domestic industry.
The price of solar panels has plummeted 50% over the past year, largely, industry insiders say, because of deliberate Chinese overproduction of key components and a game of international cat-and-mouse over trade rules often likened to a game of “Whac-A-Mole”. As different sets of rules get established, Chinese companies have proved adept at moving their manufacturing plants to other countries, in south-east Asia, and shifting strategies to work around US tariffs and other deterrent measures.

‘Eating the pets’ and Project 2025: fact checking the presidential debate
Wed, 11 Sep 2024 02:27:51 GMT
Follow for fact-checking updates on key statements made by the presidential candidates
Donald Trump has repeatedly made false and misleading claims about immigrants “eating the pets” and his connection to Project 2025, among other topics, during his debate with Kamala Harris on Tuesday in Philadelphia.
At the first debate of this presidential election cycle in June – when Joe Biden was still the Democratic party’s nominee – moderators took a completely hands-off approach to factchecking. The light moderation meant that lies and half-truths, most frequently from Trump, went unchallenged during the primetime debate.
The economy lost 2.7m jobs. The unemployment rate increased by 1.7 percentage points to 6.4%.
Paychecks grew faster than inflation. Average weekly earnings for all workers were up 8.4% after inflation.
After-tax corporate profits went up and the stock market set new records. The S&P 500 index rose 67.8%.
The international trade deficit Trump promised to reduce went up. The US trade deficit in goods and services in 2020 was the highest since 2008 and increased 36.3% from 2016.
The number of people lacking health insurance rose by 3 million.
The federal debt held by the public went up, from $14.4tn to $21.6 tn.
Home prices rose 27.5%, and the homeownership rate increased 2.1 percentage points to 65.8%.

The Guardian view on France’s political crisis: Barnier is not a real fix for Macron’s mess | Editorial
Tue, 10 Sep 2024 18:00:25 GMT
Few are celebrating the appointment of the EU’s Brexit negotiator as the country’s new prime minister
Michel Barnier, France’s new conservative prime minister, has yet to appoint a government, still less lay out its agenda. But three-quarters of voters already believe that he will soon be on his way out, despite Emmanuel Macron’s hope that the former EU Brexit negotiator can safeguard his legacy after multiple misjudgments.
Mr Barnier himself once described the president’s leadership as “solitary and arrogant”. That helps to explain the disastrous snap election. It saw support surge for Marine Le Pen’s far right in the first round, before the withdrawal of candidates by a republican front and tactical voting rode to the rescue in the second. The outcome was a legislature essentially split into three blocs – left, centre and far right – in a country without a recent history of coalition building.

Will Labour’s cold winter of cuts be worth it? – podcast
Wed, 11 Sep 2024 02:00:57 GMT
Keir Starmer says cutting the universal winter fuel allowance for pensioners is a ‘tough decision’ Labour has to take. But many of his MPs were not happy, as Peter Walker reports
Keir Starmer has been talking a lot about “tough decisions” since he became prime minister this summer. For some of his MPs, tough decisions came almost immediately – with a vote on the two-child benefit cap. Seven Labour MPs who rebelled against the party line and voted to scrap the cap found they had the whip removed.
Then the chancellor, Rachel Reeves, announced another controversial “tough decision”: the winter fuel payment paid to all pensioners to help with their heating bills was to be axed. The Guardian’s senior political correspondent Peter Walker says when MPs returned to their constituency over the summer they were left in little doubt of how worried it had left pensioners who were struggling to make ends meet.

PM becomes first to address union conference in 15 years before Mel Stride struggles to rouse revolt in benefit cut vote
Sometimes it’s all about the little things. The details. Like actually bothering to turn up and show your face.
For the last 14 years the Tory government had always insisted it was on the side of the hard-working people of Britain. And yet in that time none of the five different prime ministers thought it worth their while making the hour-long train ride to Brighton to speak to the TUC conference. Or to even open a dialogue. Perhaps because they imagined that only slackers needed a union.

The Guardian view on Labour’s strategy: focus on fixing Britain, not fiscal deficits | Editorial
Tue, 10 Sep 2024 18:01:55 GMT
Ministers have much bigger problems to deal with than principled dissent, and that’s where the government’s attention should be directed
Sir Keir Starmer’s victory on Tuesday in a Commons vote to cut winter fuel payments for 10 million pensioners was a pyrrhic one. The British prime minister defeated his internal critics – at a price. It turns out that many Labour MPs have an issue with depriving pensioners who struggle to pay their energy bills of help worth up to £300. More than 50 current and suspended Labour MPs did not vote with the government. One veteran leftwinger, Jon Trickett, a former aide to Gordon Brown, voted against it. Some ministers were permitted to stay away. But scores of Labour parliamentarians – from all wings of the party – conspicuously refused to back their government.
Sir Keir should take the win and let the matter rest there. Enough voices have been suppressed in the party that they have long supported. Ministers have much bigger problems to deal with than principled dissent, and it is there that the government’s attention should be directed. Sir Keir’s party ought to be basking in the afterglow of its sweeping electoral victory in July, which ended 14 years of Conservative rule. Instead, he is having to clean up after his vanquished opponents. The Tories governed like characters in The Great Gatsby, smashing up things only to retreat into their “vast carelessness … and let other people clean up the mess they had made”.

‘They’ve robbed us’: UK pensioners on losing the winter fuel payment
Tue, 10 Sep 2024 15:59:28 GMT
Three pensioners tell us what they think about the vote and their concerns about the coming winter
All but the poorest pensioners will no longer receive the winter fuel allowance after MPs voted to make cuts to the payments. After a Conservative motion to prevent the change was defeated by 348 votes to 228, only those in receipt of benefits such as pension credit, universal credit or income support will receive the £200-300 payment to help with their heating bills.
Here, three pensioners tell us what they think about the vote, how the loss of the allowance will affect them, and their concerns about the coming winter.

We examined anti-protest laws across the west. Britain stood out, and not in a good way | Linda Lakhdhir
Tue, 10 Sep 2024 12:00:41 GMT
Under the Tories, non-violent climate protesters were jailed for up to five years – and there is little sign that Labour will change tack
- Linda Lakhdhir is the legal director of Climate Rights International
In December 2023 when Stephen Gingell was sentenced to six months in prison for slow marching for half an hour on the Holloway Road in north London, the sentence was considered shocking. Unfortunately, it is far from the exception. In fact, my organisation, Climate Rights International, has spent the past eight months looking into restrictions on climate protests among western democracies and has found that the UK – mostly under the Conservatives – has introduced some of the harshest anti-protest legislation in recent years.
You may remember Morgan Trowland and Marcus Decker, who were sentenced to multi-year prison sentences in April 2023 for climbing the cables of the Queen Elizabeth II bridge to object to new oil, gas and coal projects. The three-year sentence imposed on Trowland was, at the time, the longest ever for a climate protest in the UK. But, it has since been surpassed. In July, in a case that made international headlines, five fossil-fuel protesters were sentenced to four- and five-year sentences after participating in a Zoom call about staging climate protests on the M25.

Landlords warn they may raise rents in response to Labour’s renters’ rights bill

Private rental sector reforms ‘could lead to Airbnb Lite’, says landlords’ association before plan unveiled in parliament
Landlords are warning they may raise asking rents in high demand areas if long-awaited reforms unveiled in parliament on Wednesday turn parts of the private rented sector into “Airbnb Lite”.
A ban on no-fault evictions and brakes on in-tenancy rent rises will be among key changes in Labour’s renters’ rights bill, as first revealed last week by the Guardian. But landlords are warning of up to 10% hikes if expected flexible tenancies mean tenants can walk away from deals in just two months.
Set deadlines for landlords to tackle dangerous conditions in an extension to the private rented sector of Awaab’s law, named after a two-year-old who died from the toxic effects of mould in social housing.
Only allow landlords to raise rents once a year, and only to the “market rate”.
Fine landlords up to £7,000 if homes do not meet a “decent homes standard”.
Abolish blanket bans on renting to people with children or who are receiving benefits.

I am infuriated by the tone taken by Fatma Aydemir in her portrayal of the area surrounding the German capital (Berlin feels like an island in a swamp of neofascism – but the flood waters are rising, 5 September).
I am a UK-German citizen who has lived in a small village near Kyritz in Brandenburg for the last eight years, after spending many years living in Berlin. We are about 90km or so from the capital. Yes, there are Alternative für Deutschland voters here – of many different types and for many different reasons. But the picture is so much more nuanced than that painted by Fatma, and branding our region as “polluted” does nothing to further understanding or rapprochement on either side.

Hostility towards migrants led to these deaths in the Channel | Letter
Tue, 10 Sep 2024 16:41:49 GMT
Lesley Hare and Simon Shaw say the obsession with detaining and returning people resulted in 12 people dying in one of the worst tragedies since the small boats crisis began
At the end of August, Care4Calais did its usual distribution in the mainly Eritrean settlement known as “the BMX site” (Police clear site where victims of Channel tragedy are said to have lived, 4 September). Our endeavours to support the community with a distribution of blankets, English lessons, games, facilitating haircuts and phone charging were, however, hampered as the police had placed huge boulders on the site as well as clearing tents. It is likely that these actions by the French state, funded partly by the British, hastened a decision to attempt a crossing.
The people we support in this settlement come from a nation that has been called the “North Korea of Africa”. When they claim asylum in the UK, Eritreans have a very high success rate – 99% in 2023.

We have rusty playgrounds and rundown town centres, yet the government fixates on its ill-conceived plan to penalise pensioners
As the nights begin to draw in, the brief euphoria of 5 July increasingly feels like something that happened in a lost time of sunny innocence. Today, amid deep dismay, the House of Commons approved the government’s ill-conceived and dangerous plan to withdraw the winter fuel allowance from most pensioners in England and Wales.
Rachel Reeves has reportedly given ministers and civil servants until Friday to draw up departmental savings. In some parts of Keir Starmer’s administration, meanwhile, minds are at least partly focused on interesting and exciting policies – but the Treasury is spreading a familiar sense of fear and foreboding.

Why stop at breakfast? We paediatricians think all of England’s primary pupils should have lunch for free | Steve Turner
Tue, 10 Sep 2024 09:00:41 GMT
There are increasing numbers of children with chronic health conditions. It must be on Labour's menu to help them
- Steve Turner is president of the Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health
As a nation, we are at a crossroads with child health. Waiting lists are soaring and children now make up three-quarters of all patients who wait more than a year for community health services. When they are eventually treated, their symptoms are more chronic and complex.
As a paediatrician, and the president of the Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health (RCPCH), I have watched with horror as this all unfolds. The cost of living crisis has dragged down the health of our children. One in five parents say that because of the cost of living crisis, their children’s physical health has suffered. It is no surprise to me that the number of children with eight or more chronic health conditions doubled from 7.6% in 2012 to 14% in 2018.

The meadow mutiny: why a rewilding scheme sparked a residents’ revolt
Tue, 10 Sep 2024 09:00:40 GMT
A council in Derbyshire decided to let grass grow wild - and a group of vigilante mowers fought back. What can be done to make sure essential environmental schemes get the local support they need?
The vigilante mowers of Rayneham Road in Ilkeston, Derbyshire, don’t look like dissidents. Ranging in age from 49 to 68, most have adult children and comfortably sized houses in a quiet corner of the East Midlands. They are not people you might usually associate with a picket line. But when the council stopped mowing the communal green space opposite their redbrick houses as part of a borough-wide rewilding scheme, it wasn’t long before mutiny took hold.
The grass reached hip height. Fears about dog poo, litter and ticks spread. Residents felt there was nowhere for visiting grandchildren to run amok or play football. “It was up to my daughter’s nose at one point,” says 54-year-old teacher Marnay Dudley. “I found it so depressing,” says her retired neighbour Moira Barclay.

Rich countries silencing climate protest while preaching about rights elsewhere, says study
Tue, 10 Sep 2024 04:00:34 GMT
Report says governments in global north increasingly using draconian measures while criticising similar tactics in global south
Wealthy, democratic countries in the global north are using harsh, vague and punitive measures to crack down on climate protests at the same time as criticising similar draconian tactics by authorities in the global south, according to a report.
A Climate Rights International report exposes the increasingly heavy-handed treatment of climate activists in Australia, Germany, France, the Netherlands, Sweden, the UK and the US.
Record prison sentences for non violent protest in several countries including the UK, Germany and the US.
Preemptive arrests and detention for those suspected of planning peaceful protests.
Draconian new laws passed to make the vast majority of peaceful protest illegal.
Measures to stop juries hearing about people’s motivation for taking part in protests during court cases, which critics say fundamentally undermines the right to a fair trial.

Conclave review – Ralph Fiennes takes charge of tense papal election thriller
Tue, 10 Sep 2024 18:56:54 GMT
Toronto film festival: the actor leads a top-tier ensemble, including Stanley Tucci and Isabella Rossellini, in an entertainingly juicy adaptation of Robert Harris’s novel
Like the easily devoured paperback it’s based on, pulpy papal thriller Conclave has a brisk, page-turning allure, filled with juicy intrigue and mystery, a beach read that would follow you back home after. We’ve become grimly accustomed to plot-heavy bestsellers such as this stretched out into indulgent 10-episode seasons of television (such as the recently misjudged re-adaptation of Scott Turow’s Presumed Innocent on Apple TV+), a baggy over-extension of stories that demand a tighter grip.
So it’s a mercy of sorts to see All Quiet on the Western Front’s Edward Berger transform Robert Harris’s “unputdownable” pot-boiler into a brisk, contained feature instead, a two-hour escape to the Vatican that knows exactly when to drop us in and take us out. It’s a fairly dry set-up in theory but Harris and playwright Peter Straughan (who co-wrote 2011’s equally involving adaptation of Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy) have found humour and suspense in the fictionalised hunt for a new Pope, an election that propels a timely and tense political thriller, scheduled to be released in the US just days before a real one takes place.

Time travel in the Italian Alps: a glam stay in a 70s design hotel
Tue, 10 Sep 2024 06:00:36 GMT
On the shores of Lake Caldaro in South Tirol, the striking Seehotel Ambach has barely changed since 1973 – and is all the better for it
When I was about seven years old, my aunt brought me back a souvenir from her trip to America – a yellow trouser suit with yellow-and-purple zigzag-patterned flared trousers. I thought it was the coolest thing I had ever seen and, 50 years later, as I walk into the Seehotel Ambach in Italy’s South Tirol, I can’t help thinking how it’s just the kind of look I should be rocking in the 1970s lobby.
We are greeted by a riot of yellow and orange and a selection of the Italian design industry’s greatest hits from the 70s by Joe Colombo, Ettore Sottsass and others. More recognisable to those not in the know about Milan’s design elite are ashtrays advertising Cinzano, glasses promising the delights of Martini and evocative period commercial poster art. At first it’s hard to get your bearings. It’s not unlike walking into a packed vintage shop on Portobello Road or in Margate, except it’s 33C outside and I can see Lake Caldaro glistening through the window.

The Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado has insisted the campaign to end Nicolás Maduro’s authoritarian rule is “stronger than ever”, but the banishing of one of its key figures to Spain has thrown many supporters off balance.
Edmundo González, who the US and other countries have recognised as the winner of Venezuela’s 28 July presidential election, flew into exile on Sunday after several weeks holed up in the Dutch ambassador’s residence in Caracas. An arrest warrant, seemingly designed to force the retired diplomat to flee, had been issued a week earlier.

Cons:
- Some professional templates are available for Pro user only
- Advanced photo editing features like blurring or erasing a specific area are missing.
- Some elements that fall outside of a design are tricky to retrieve.
- Features (like Canva presentations) could use some improvement.

In general, Canva is an excellent tool for those who need simple images for projects. If you are a graphic designer with experience, you will find Canva’s platform lacking in customization and advanced features – particularly vectors. But if you have little design experience, you will find Canva easier to use than advanced graphic design tools like Adobe Photoshop or Illustrator for most projects.
