Please read my posting again, and with more attention. I cast no aspersions on Mr. Hayes, nor did I qualify him as a lobbyist.
I was criticising the naïve assertion that the fact that someone is being paid a large salary is proof that Monsanto is a credible bee friendly company. 

If the reference to “the famous "farmer lawsuits" in Canada and the USA” was intended to have some connexion with my second mail, then I would point out that I was referring to Monsanto’s condemnation by the Highest court in France and the classification of Roundup as "dangerous for the Environment".
