Please follow the link and sign the petition to stop the importation of bees

https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/577603

These imported bees can possibly bring the Small Hive Beetle with them which is a pest we don’t wont in the UK

Founded in 1921, Harrogate and Ripon Beekeepers Association is an independent association of beekeepers, with a history spanning 100 years, that has grown to over 350 members.
