BE THERE FOR BRITISH BEES

6 days to go before the big European vote on bee killer pesticides, there’s been some breaking news.
Bulgaria had been lining up alongside the UK to block a ban on these pesticides. But yesterday, after beekeepers from across the nation marched through the capital, Bulgaria’s minister for agriculture, Ivan Stankov, changed his mind. Bulgaria will now vote for a ban. [1]
We need Owen Paterson, our own environment minister, to follow suit.
So, this Friday 38 Degrees is teaming up with a whole host of other organisations to march on parliament and stage our very own March of the Beekeepers. [2]
Can you come along to the demonstration?
Make the point dressed as a bee keeper or a bee.
