Lidl complaint: Live wasp in the spinach

As I placed a handful of spinach into my strainer, and was about to stick my hand in and begin washing it, a huge live wasp crawled out of the spinach and onto the corner of the strainer. This wasp was like no wasp I have ever encountered before it was very long and looked like something you would come across overseas. I went to attack the wasp with a washing up brush and it flew onto my counter, where after several blows with a cup, I was able to crush it (definitely not built like a common wasp).

This looks like a foreign species, and the bag of organic spinach claims that it was produced in Britain.

I am concerned how an insect like this is getting into British produce when it does not look native to the British Isles.

Had the insect not climbed to the edge of my strainer, I would of stuck my had in to wash it and could have recieved several nasty stings from a species of insect I have never been stung by before.
