The union-backed plan could raise $100bn, more than enough to replace federal healthcare funding stripped away by Donald Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill Act. About 200 very rich people would pay. But the referendum is becoming a test of whether extreme wealth can buy the political power to defeat a popular redistributive policy. Google co-founder Sergey Brin has already spent $100m backing opposition to the tax – a fraction of the $13bn bill he could face. Other billionaires are joining him. Whether voters can impose costs on the super-rich once their fortunes are big enough to shape the political process is now an open question. That alone should trouble any democracy. It’s a long way from Mr Brin’s west coast lair of Mountain View to Andy Burnham’s Makerfield constituency. But the prime minister should heed the call from prominent progressive academics – led by the Nobel prize winner Joseph Stiglitz – urging Britain to join a new global push to tackle inequality. Prof Stiglitz wants help creating a new UN International Panel on Inequality (IPI). This stems from the G20’s first-ever inequality report, which warned that the yawning gap between rich and poor was a human-made crisis corroding democracy and social cohesion while blocking efforts to tackle the climate emergency.

- 22:53Editorials | The Guardian The Guardian view on writers’ houses: a museum of one’s own | Editorial The Wordsworth Trust has acquired a second home. Cherished authors including George Eliot don’t even have one Interest in all things Jane Austen remains high, following the celebrations of her 250th anniversary. In September, the museum based in her former home in Chawton, Hampshire, will host a Persuasion festival. But a less obvious beneficiary of this spike in interest is a museum dedicated to two writers she never met: William and Dorothy Wordsworth. The success of the BBC television series The Other Bennet Sister – which portrayed Mary, a minor character in Austen’s Pride and Prejudice, as a Wordsworth enthusiast – has led to an influx of visitors to Dove Cottage in Cumbria. This has been a big year for the Wordsworth Trust, which owns the cottage, owing to its purchase of another house: Rydal Mount, two miles to the east. When this building is reopened, the poet will become one of a handful of authors, along with Charles Dickens and Thomas Hardy, to have more than one of his homes opened to visitors.

Criticism by autistic individuals led to further research that has found neurotypical researchers may simply fail to see how autistic empathy manifests itself—ironically due to their own lack of empathy for autistic perspectives.

- 21:09JSTOR Daily Neurodiversity in the Clinic Some autistic people have long criticized the “medical model” of disability, which treats atypical development as a pathology and seeks to “cure” it, or at least help patients become as close as possible to typically developing peers. An alternative lens popularized in the 1990s by autism rights activist Judy Singer is “neurodiversity.” Autism researcher Patrick Dwyer looks at what this framework could offer professionals working with autistic people and others with differences in neurodevelopment. Dwyer advocates for a view of neurodiversity that has room for both social factors and individual impairments that may be addressed with treatment, as well as for the idea that neurodivergences can come with strengths. This allows for responses that involve changing the environment and/or helping an individual adapt to their surroundings. For example, responses to ADHD may include offering stimulant medications to help with focus and also removing distractions. Parents who view their autistic children through a deficit lens may be more likely to pursue ineffective and dangerous pseudoscientific treatments. Dwyer argues that it’s crucial for neurodivergent people themselves to be the ones deciding which approach to take, to the extent possible. He also distinguishes between interventions to promote well-being and those that aim purely at making people behave more neurotypically, such as trying to suppress harmless autistic “stims” like arm-flapping. One controversy around the neurodiversity approach involves its application to people with what’s sometimes (controversially) referred to as “severe” or “low-functioning” autism. Parents and caregivers of intellectually disabled or non-speaking autistic people sometimes argue that neurodivergent self-advocates with low support needs can’t speak for those with disabilities that affect their daily lives in more profound ways.

But Dwyer suggests that, in practice, the medical model is often simply inapplicable to people with high support needs. For example, there is no pill to help people gain language abilities. Instead, the best-proven interventions are environmental supports like communication tablets and assistance with daily tasks. Dwyer also argues that a strength-based approach among clinicians, parents, and autistic people themselves can help people with high support needs find the approaches that make most sense for them. Parents who view their autistic children through a deficit lens may be more likely to pursue ineffective and dangerous pseudoscientific treatments.

It also involves looking to autistic self-advocates and conversations within autistic communities for guidance on research directions to pursue. This might include more focus on autistic experiences of sensory overload and meltdowns, as well as the value and pleasure to be found in hyperfocus and intense interest in particular topics.
