I know we all love bees and everything, but they likely have little choice.

Neonics are damaging but the damage done by pests in their absence is bigger. Beekeeping isn't a major part of the economy.

Obviously, it would be better to protect crops with something else. Genes offer a great alternative but France is unlikely to agree to anything as innovative as Gene Editing anytime soon. So neonics it is...

    I don't get it, why is the frustration aimed at Easyjet? If car traffic makes me miss my train, I dont expect the train company to cough up.

    I also don't want my flight waiting for late passengers - I might have a connection or a train to catch after landing.

    It's unfortunate so many people missed their flight but the carrier is not at fault.
