Current Affairs EU In or Out

[Hickson9]

Being in the Eu or out of it makes no difference regarding our Unoon. The SNP exist for one purpose only. The difference is that it would have been difficult enough for Scotland while we were in the EU, now it is far more difficult for them.....

It makes a massive difference.

Brexit has definitely increased the desire for Scottish independence, Welsh independence and left a united Ireland more likely - as Northern Ireland is essentially still within the EU meanwhile there is a new border between Britain and Northern Ireland.

wales voted to leave

The main difference between those who voted Leave v Remain is that Leavers have the confidence to stand on their own two feet, and believe in the U.K., and do not require some slow moving bureaucratic comfort blanket based in Brussels.....

Haha yes. The leavers believe in the U.K. like someone would in Father Christmas or god. Blind faith rather than anything tangible.

EU have asked for the permission from AZ to publish the entire vaccine contract in full no retractions, AZ are yet to reply. I'm sure AZ will only be to happy to agree, just to clarify any misunderstandings... Hopefully it will do quicker than it did with its links to the British Eugenics Society and others round the world, one hopes anyway.

They're not mutually exclusive things.

Even Germany are blaming the EU. It’s only defenders seem to be based in the UK

Now this is not gloating, but is a fact, and it’s down to the EU and the EMA with their leaden footed approach to a pandemic...How anyone can attempt to defend this shower over this matter is incredible....

When you add all the European Union countries together they have given more does then the UK, surprised by that.

Four and a half years ago. Times and views have changed.

wales voted to leave

Hahaha, it doesn't follow though does it- to make it clear for you- it doesn't necessarily follow from voting for Brexit that they unequivocally support exactly what the Tory party do forever after, especially removing devolved responsibilities and powers.

People squabbling about notional entities, fabled bureaucracies and point scoring while the pandemic recognises none of these. Millions dead while the petty minded nit pick about who said what and when and to whom and dress speculation up as fact.
When the pandemic is finally brought to a manageable close there’ll be global warming to face. That doesn’t recognise national borders either although I bet most of the debate centres on sovereign states. If we are the smartest creatures on this planet we are fecked without a different perspective on humanity.

I should hope so.
If 27 countries with a total population of 448m can't do more doses out than 1 country with a population of 66m then they really do have a problem.
Surprised by that? This government have handled this pandemic shockingly bad. No question about that. But so far the roll out of the vaccine is a success
and we should all be thankful of that regardless of what political colour or hue we are.

Is it?

Didn't Simon Stevens say that the reason they'd delayed the second doses wasn't, as the government claimed, due to "wanting to protect the largest number of people", but due to supply issues?

Do you not believe in yourself or your fellow workers ?....

And if that’s what the people want then so be it. What’s the problem ?
