This article was written by Damian Carrington of the Guardian.
Before taking it too seriously please note that he is still getting mixed up between honeybees and bumblebees - not for the first time.
The coverage of bee issues in the UK press is dire.

'Creswell also criticised research published the journal Science in March, which showed that honeybees consuming one pesticide suffered an 85% loss in the number of queens their nests produced.'
