quoting numbers of members in national organisations does not demonstrate a majority of anything as we have seen with the BBKA, the opinions of the executive seldom reflects the opinion of the membership. And as probably a great numbers of beekeepers aren't even members, it proves nothing
I think the coming together of a number of national bee keeping organisations that otherwise do not necessarily get on and in fact two of which emerged from a fractious split does show that this has the grass roots support of beekeepers here in Ireland.
Look I would like to extend an olive branch here - I am sure we have more in common than not. Just on this topic we don't agree.
