I didn’t realise they kept bees on the roof of Westminster Cathedral (though it seems as good a place as any to do so…)
Trained beekeepers had to tackle a 5,000-strong swarm of honeybees surrounding a central London store.
The insects were smoked out after gathering around a sign in front of a store in Victoria Street earlier.
Tony Mann, a trained beekeeper, said the bees were flying around the areas “like scouts”.
The bees were moved to nearby Westminster Cathedral, where they will be looked after by beekeepers on the church’s roof.
