From The Independent: Antonia Molloy.

Is there any end to the gibberish we are served up by journalists on the issue of bees.

It is well-known that bees are an endangered species, but threats to the insects are more comprehensive than you might think – around 30,000 of the creatures were stolen by thieves last year.

It reads like it was written by a two year old.

The 30,000 bees were taken during a single theft in Edinburgh last August - colonies can be sold on the black bee market for around £500.

BIBBA?

But did you see the map of the work in stereotypes on the same page?? The download of the original is 80+ Mb but it's got some great labelling … here is the UK

Good theory fatshark.
Bibba could be behind the recent bee thefts - selling on the black ones for £500 per colony and dousing the Buckfast with petrol.
I saw that stereotype map somewhere else within the past week or two. There is also a world map as seen by UKIP doing the rounds. Most of Africa is Bongo Bongo land and Eastern Europe is dangerously large and over populated.

Well said Madasafish! I once got so p'd off I registered and commented similarly on an article and associated comments in the Scotsman.
