"Bees across the UK are already in crisis – keep your promise and ban all bee-killing pesticides now."
Keir Starmer is breaking his promise of better pollinator protections by considering allowing a bee-killing poison banned in the EU on our fields!

During the election, Starmer promised to ban neonicotinoids, which are so powerful that one teaspoon can kill 1.25 billion honeybees. And it’s not just bees – other precious pollinators and wildlife have been shown again and again to suffer from the use of these poisons.

Avaazers in the UK and across the world have shown up for our bees before: a whopping 5 million of us helped bring about the EU ban! Let’s grow our call even further now to show the PM and Environment Secretary Steve Reed we’re watching, and urge them to put bees before the powerful sugar lobby. Sign and share widely to bring en enormous buzz to 10 Downing Street:
