Earlier this month Vice-Chair of our Advisory Board @chickpeaman gave evidence at the @CommonsSITC session on insect decline & food security We're pleased to see Parliament taking an interest in the issue of decline and will continue to support the impacted bees and pollinators
@RHarrabin @RSPBNews Have you noticed a lack of buzzing in your green & wild spaces this year? 🐝 #CitizenScientists needed! 👩🔬 #BugsMatter survey season is here & we'd love to welcome more people to our buggy family! 👇 buglife.org.uk/get-involved/s… Lets find out what's going on!
An important article outlining the need for a nuanced approach to saving our bees and pollinators. Whilst the APPG welcomes any approach to help save bees and pollinators targeted support is needed. 🐝🐝🐝 telegraph.co.uk/gardening/chel…
It was great to host a meeting of the Bees and Pollinators Advisory Board this morning! Delighted to be joined by our members to discuss the most pressing issues facing pollinators and how we can help promote their cause! 🐝🐝🐝
Great to host a meeting between our Chair @BarryGardiner and the Chair of our Advisory Board @MattEAShardlow to discuss our work programme for 2023 and other exciting developments including a response to @CommonsSTC Inquiry on Insect decline and UK food security. 🐝🐝🐝
Terrible news that banned #neonic pesticides will be used on sugar beet this year This is yet another example of the government failing to follow their warm words with meaningful action when it comes to pesticides and biodiversity pesticidecollaboration.org/press-release-…

Great to meet @theresecoffey at Rethink Nature species champion event on Wednesday afternoon. We discussed rapidly declining pollinator populations and Defra's work to revise the 9 yr old National Pollinator Strategy. #specieschampions #foodsecurity @Buzz_dont_tweet @bees_appg
At today's Environmental Audit Committee, @thisischerilyn asks @theresecoffey about the approval of the 'emergency' use of neonics, only a few weeks after pledging to reduce pollution - including pesticides - at COP15 👇🐝
The APPG is delighted to see Labour pledge to ban neonicotinoids from being used in farming. We hope that this encourages the Government to rethink its strategy for the usage of the bee-killing pesticide. 🐝🐝🐝

In Parliament today I’m leading a debate on the Government authorising the use of bee killing pesticides. It’s environmental vandalism. Watch live on parliamentlive.tv from 9.30am ❤️🐝
We're delighted to see that a debate has been secured to discuss the harm that neonicotinoids cause to our bees and pollinators. We hope that this debate will cause government to rethink it's strategy on this harmful pesticide. 🐝🐝🐝

The APPG is disappointed to see Defra go against expert recommendations regarding the application of neonicotinoids on crops. This will put #bees and other #pollinators at risk and will accelerate population decline.

This morning 9.30am, we are holding our first session on Insect decline & UK food security. It will explore the role insects play in the ecosystem, including pollination, decomposition, pest & weed control, & research monitoring UK insect numbers. Watch: parliamentlive.tv/event/index/a6…
CalComms was pleased yesterday to help support and organise a meeting of the Bees and Pollinators APPG Advisory Board, bringing together experts and passionate stakeholders together to discuss the most pressing issues facing the sector.
Great to host a meeting of the Bees and Pollinators Advisory Board meeting today We had a packed agenda discussing the most pressing issues facing our bees and pollinators - keep your eyes peeled for our next update! #Bees #Pollinators
The UK Government has quietly deleted the EU derived legislation banning neonicotinoid use in the UK. Meaning this is not a derogation and hence not subject to the same legal tests it faced in previous years. #bees #neonics
News just in: aphid numbers are predicted to breach the government’s threshold to allow the use of banned #neonic #pesticides on sugar beet in 2023. This is bad news for nature and the opposite of what prioritising nature’s recovery looks like. 1/3
Great to meet @theresecoffey at Rethink Nature species champion event on Wednesday afternoon. We discussed rapidly declining pollinator populations and Defra's work to revise the 9 yr old National Pollinator Strategy. #specieschampions #foodsecurity @Buzz_dont_tweet @bees_appg
The Conservatives have authorised more bee-killing pesticides to be used again this year. The next Labour Government will ban bee-killing pesticides from being used in farming. plymouthherald.co.uk/news/plymouth-…
CalComms provides Secretariat services to the Bees and Pollinators All-Party Parliamentary Group, and we were pleased today to see a Westminster Hall debate organised to discuss one of the biggest issues facing the sector. #Westminster #Government
The APPG is delighted to see @LukePollard raising awareness of the serious issue of bee-killing pesticides. We urge Ministers at @DefraGovUK to rethink this strategy and to place pollinator health as a priority issue. #Bees #Pollinators #Pesticides

We're delighted to see that a debate has been secured to discuss the harm that neonicotinoids cause to our bees and pollinators. We hope that this debate will cause government to rethink it's strategy on this harmful pesticide. 🐝🐝🐝
