The sound of "give bees a chance" droned over 10 Downing Street by keepers from accross the country. Over 400 potestors came to blow smoke around Parliament Square. A delegation presented a petition with 140,000 signatories to 10 Downing Street.
They wriggled their way from Parliament Square past the lunch time joggers with evil thoughts of releasing bees on Whitehall bureaucrats. I got quite a buzz from the event.

About Me
- Ian Gibson
- Norwich, Norfolk, United Kingdom
- I have been the MP for Norwich North since 1997. Before being an MP I was Dean of Biology at the University of East Anglia. My work in Parliament and in Norwich has primarily consisted of advocacy work and pushing the government to take more notice of the role that science plays (and can play) in our nation. My scientific background has meant that I have been involved in numerous groups and charities in Parliament. I am a member of the Innovation, Universities, Science and Skills committee and chair of tha all party group on cancer.
