I can’t understand why keeping the bee we want, black, grey or “satsuma” should be an issue at all, laughable or not.Sadly, the word 'local' is the best we have to describe the bees that live in our area, either that or put up with the 'mongrel' stamp from beekeepers who talk about F2 and F3 of their chosen bee type
In the case of buckfast, a synthetic bee in the first place, it's even more laughable.
