More bee-killing poisons? Why?For the third year in a row, the UK Government has approved the use of the banned neonicotinoid by English farmers on sugar beet crops.For the third year in a row, this decision goes against the advice of two of the Governments own expert groups; the Expert Committee on Pesticides and the Health and Safety Executive.
