I am using go premium and I keep throwing the same google errors.

https://ppmbc.ca/air-monitoring/
Text too small to read
Clickable objects too close together
Content wider than screen.
I have added padding and rearrange the clickable objects as well as made the text fairly large.

When I use the mobility test tool it says everything is good. The fix gets validated and then the error comes back

Hi there,

If you google something like: google console reporting mobile issues when none exist you will see many reports of the issue - none of which are fully explained aside from Googles console tests being a little flaky.

As there are no visible issues on your site and it passes the mobile friendly test we can go with it being google having a weird moment.

I wrote this doc a while ago - which is more relevant when Mobile Friendly tests fail:

https://docs.generatepress.com/article/text-too-small-to-read-and-clickable-elements-too-close-together/

Gives you a little understanding of why a test may fail. Releveant takeaway point is that Googles resources fluctuate, and when they're really busy that simply can't load all the necessary JS/CSS files to render the site properly.
