Bee-keepers Protest - Spend More on Research

Westminster, London. Tuesday 5 Nov, 2008

      
The bees on this woman's umbrella have a message, 'Help Us!'

 
  Give bees a chance - increase funding! Very little is currently spent on researching bee diseases such as colony collapse disorder (CCD)
 
  Beekeepers from Hereford
 
 
        
  Bee-keepers use burning wood shavings or corrugated cardboard in the smoker to calm the hives so the bee-keeper can work with them
 
Older bee-keepers wore smocks and more primitive veils - and some thought the occasional sting was good for the health! 
     
Tim Lovett, President of the British Bee Keepers Association wears a chain with the names of past presidents  
     


Labour MP for Norwich North , Dr Ian Gibson
