Abandoned, dismissed and gaslighted: there is no excuse for the way ME sufferers have been betrayed | George Monbiot
Changes in guidance and science seem to have little impact on millions of devastated lives. It’s a social crisis playing out behind closed doors, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

Toronto City Council has voted to violate your rights and institute 'protest bubbles' for various pieces of infrastructure in the city. If anything, amendments have made—across the board—the Bylaw worst than was revised with legal counsel. Our rights are in jeopardy.
Alt: The image is a composite visual containing text and a screenshot. At the top, large bold text reads "Toronto City Council has voted to violate your rights." Below this, a tweet from a user named Matt Elliott is displayed. It details the adoption of the Bubble Zone Bylaw by the Toronto City Council, aimed at restricting protests in front of places like worship centers, schools, and daycares, with a vote count of 16-9. Below the tweet, there is a screenshot of a website displaying a voting result table from the Toronto City Council. Names are listed next to their votes, colored in red for "No" votes and green for "Yes" votes. Of those who voted no: Councillors Ainslie, Bravo, Fletcher, Malik, Matlow, Moise, Morley, Myers, Perks. All others voted yes. At the bottom of the image, there is large text reading "No Protest Bubbles in Ontario."
