It would be fair to say I am not entirely happy about Apinz's structure but then the old NBA wasn't exactly perfect either and I can think of at least two past presidents that were (I'm trying to think of an appropriate word here but I think bullied comes closest).I can certainly see the advantages of having everyone concerned with beekeeping under one roof and when it works there are obviously some huge advantages but there have been and will be times when there is a conflict-of-interest between the different parties.I certainly struggle to see how any of the corporate type beekeepers would do anything to benefit me and beekeepers like me when they have spent years walking roughshod over us without a second thought to how much damage they are doing.</blockquote>
