Ban the use of pesticides and other products containing neonicotinoids on crops.
All products containing neonicotinoids such as thiamethoxam should be banned for use in the U.K. due to their detrimental effect on bees and other pollinators.
Neonicotinoids have been banned in the U.K. as an EU member since 2018 following studies which showed a link between the use of these products in farming and a decrease in bee reproduction when using these pesticides. Please roll over these protections in order to protect the bee population of the U.K. and avoid setting a precedent for other harmful products to be used in the future.
