Not one single acknowledgement or apology for the earlier nastiness and the lies?
No, instead you're trying to conflate the issue further with the use of years-out-of-date and already debunked claims regarding the alleged educational attainment of those who voted for Brexit! (1)

These have obviously not been delivered and whilst there is a best endeavours clause, those endeavours have to be within the contemplation of the parties and unless disclosed a third party contract safeguarding supply may well be considered a breach which is why the EU may act to secure vaccines which is in nobodies interest.
More false claims posted deliberately by you without any supporting link as evidence I see.
Why?
Because it is another lie!
The EU paid for vaccines.
Here's how Reuters (2) has worded the deal:
"The European Commission has made a 336 million euro ($396 million) downpayment to British drug maker AstraZeneca AZN.L to secure at least 300 million doses of its potential COVID-19 vaccine, a spokesman said on Thursday.
The deal covers development, liability and other costs faced by the vaccine maker. "
Nothing at all about "
funding to help the development and production of its vaccine in collaboration with Oxford University" you will note; no,
it's a straight purchase.
FYI the "development" costs as mentioned relate to AZ's costs as part of making the vaccine available non-profit because obviously the final cost must include such things.
I hope that has filled an obvious hole in your understanding.

Um, you know you keep banging on about intelligence?
Well it's
Pfizer.
Well done you though for pointing out Germany's investment ....... their only one mind you that's either been discovered or that has come to fruition.
One.
What difference has that made for Germany - and why if it's so great is their vaccination rate so dismal?
Meanwhile the UK invested in a broad spectrum; hence our success.
It's probably better not to put all your eggs in one basket.

No wonder when - as above - you deliberately try to deceive others.
That isn't helped by your insistence upon trying to defend your blatant attempts at deception.
Sadly that seems to be the only way you can justify your stance.

No.
You did that despite your own obvious failings and I answered.
You aren't exactly helping you case with examples like the one I pointed out earlier either.
Let's hope you do leave it there then, though I suspect you cannot resist digging a deeper hole.
