“Four senior #leaders at #Canva have left the design #software giant this month at a time when the company is undertaking big changes to reposition itself as an #ArtificialIntelligence
platform.

Growth lead Iain Dowling announced his resignation on Monday after eight years in senior positions across the design team. Senior #engineering director Jonathan Ross will leave at the end of this month.

Their departures follow that of head of design Andrew Green, announced days after the company’s giant “Create” conference in Los Angeles unveiled a suite of new #AIFeatures. The company’s chief #technology officer Brendan Humphreys also quit about the same time.”

These redundancies due to growth & priority change while the business market approaches recession.

European Leaders Struggle with Popularity Amid Economic and Political Challenges

Recent polling indicates that several of Europe’s major leaders are experiencing historically low approval ratings, reflecting widespread public dissatisfaction. In the UK, Keir Starmer faces only 27% approval, while Emmanuel Macron in France and Friedrich Merz in Germany are even more unpopular, with approval ratings of 18% and 19% respectively. Other European leaders, including Austria’s Christian Stocker, Norway’s Jonas Gahr Støre, and Belgium’s Bart de Wever, are similarly struggling with disapproval. Analysts suggest that these ratings are not simply a reflection of personal shortcomings but also structural challenges, including economic stagnation, dependence on foreign energy, and the rise of China as a manufacturing powerhouse. Historical comparisons, such as Margaret Thatcher’s 1981 ratings, indicate that public discontent during economic strain is not unprecedented. Nevertheless, there are exceptions: Denmark’s Mette Frederiksen maintains relatively strong support due to long-term energy planning and handling of international disputes. Experts emphasise that European leaders must navigate complex global pressures while implementing necessary, albeit unpopular, policies, which inevitably impacts their popularity.

Petition! via @wemoveeu
The #US is still #bombing #Iran. #Iranians continue to #suffer, while #fuel and #food #prices #soar for all of us.

#Trump is putting our #futures, our #lives and our #livelihoods at #risk. And our #leaders? They do #nothing.

Everything Trump says about this #war makes it clear: he has no end in sight. He’s a #megalomaniac… with #nuclearweapons at his #disposal.

By signing and sharing this petition we can make our public opposition to this war impossible for our leaders to ignore.

Europe: Stand up against illegal war in Iran

As the US and Israel cause death and destruction in Iran, our leaders just look on. All European nations and the EU must follow Spain’s lead and say NO to war.
