Studies have shown that tiny pieces of plastic, which may originate from everyday products such as food packaging or plastic toys, can make bees more susceptible to bacteria and viruses.
In turn, the microplastics can injure or even kill bees, and make pollination more difficult. wapo.st/3RDRRBO

Across my long and largely futile career, I’ve read innumerable reports by professional bodies. But never one as scathing as the note last month by the Chartered Institute of Ecology and Environmental Management.

Being disabled does not make someone “a victim”, Nigel Farage. Having state support to go to school does not make someone “a victim” either.
These kind of remarks are in many ways why I wrote Who Wants Normal? Disabled young people deserve more than this vile narrative.

![Asked at this press conference about the rising number of children diagnosed with Send, and what could be done to help them, Farage replied:
It’s a massive problem. I have to say, for my own money, when you get to 18 and you put somebody on a disability register, unemployed, with a high level of benefits, you’re telling people aged 18 that they’re that they’re victims. And if you are told you’re a victim, and you think you’re a victim, you are likely to stay [a victim].
So many of these diagnoses, for Send before 18, for disability register after 18 – so many of these have been conducted on Zoom, with the family GP.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:dckjoluraublavhlr4a2lirv/bafkreigfvddmol7sp6pnixnej3bwyj6gp5upnhxhdcqj6ubgbs6iqelmya@jpeg)
