Sky News Little is known about #MECFS because 30 years have been wasted on psychological research & bad science. NICE only withdrew the ineffective & harmful treatments in 2021. George Monbiot described it as the Greatest Medical Scandal of the 21st century. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

Lara Crowther What can a single teacher do? I religiously mask, open all the windows and doors every day, turn on the purifier and mechanical air. I take my own CO2 monitor to every room. There is no interest from other staff or those above.

on this day 29 years ago, the miniseries adaptation of 'pride and prejudice' (1995) aired its first episode on bbc one.

Keir Starmer Please dont target benefit claimants + disability benefits. DWP figures say fraud is close to 0% There have been enough deaths relating to benefits Making the most vulnerable pay for public spending is not the answer! Disabled people, pensioners + welfare state must be protected

Chester Standard Today's The Guardian article has more details on the formal complaint that Child N's mother filed against Dr A. The inquiry is referring to him as Dr U, to further protect his identity. (I remain astonished this man was ever granted lifetime anonymity.) theguardian.com/uk-news/2024/s…
