I see the letter referred to is from that paragon of reasoned debate Graham White/borderbeeman. The quotations are absurd in the extreme - the extinction of every bird and bee beckons courtesy of neonics apparently. Do these journalists take the time to even find out whose propaganda they're publishing? Nice picture of a bumble though - clearly their photo library doesn't extend to the honeybee.

In many ways he is a 'paragon of reasoned debate'.
I don't think he posted this piece on this forum,so I'll give the link: http://www.gdriveurl.com/?idl=813645622675&out=1
I fail to see how anybody would not be moved to try to change some of our current practices after reading this coherent observational essay on our foolish mistreatment of wildlife.
It takes a while to read, but well worth it. Good photos,too.

It would be good if some of those who voted against Eric's motion were to read Graham's piece above, then reflect.(Gavin, Jon, Phil?)
