I'm no "fan-boy" of Boris or of this government but it has to be said that with regard to our vaccination plan I don't think that they could have done much more.
TBH it's little short of brilliant - and every single one of us will reap the rewards of that brilliance too.
For years to come.

They're doing a great job of making themselves the laughing-stock of the world all on their own without us sinking to their level.
Boris and his team have enough smarts to know that there are more ways than one of skinning the proverbial. - snipped to save electrons -
As you intimate, the EU is literally turning itself into a clown school with all its stupid shenanigans. The sooner the EU Parliament takes on the Commission and repatriates all decision making back to their respective sovereign states the better for all concerned imho.

Re: EU About to Block Vaccine For the UK.
Retaliating would be a bad move fir companies wanting to leave the member states in favor of the UK. It would mean they would have as much uncertainty here as they do over there.Sort our fishing, sort out the Irish border and start deregulation at full speed.
That should show we are moving forward like the proverbial speed boat.

If this sort of thing continues, you never know: Boris's hand might just be forced!
Northern Ireland, of course, is another matter.

So encouraging our own market and home consumption just like I suggested ages ago in these very forums could be beneficial is in fact turning out to be so, despite the suggestion being widely ridiculed when I suggested it?
I'd love to know why you think that "Boris's hand might just be forced" here when obviously the market is deciding the outcome (as it should) rather than politics?
NI is indeed another matter entirely.

You said that fishermen were stupid and didn't know what they were voting for. You then mocked every campaign to sell more fish locally and said Morrisons were wasting their time buying their own trawler.

To take it further l think the UK fishermen should take matters into
their own hands and immediately start ignoring the EU quotas
as we are constantly told that we are in control of our borders??
It's time to test these assurances by putting them into practice ??
After all, what could EU do about it ??
DONT ANSWER THAT !!
Donkeyman! 🤔🤔🤔

Even if they do criticise or even prosecute our fishermen, they are going to lose even more votes... and 2024 continues to approach!

Re: EU About to Block Vaccine For the UK.
Returning to the original subject matter of the thread, what does it matter if the EU block sending any Covid vaccines to us?I believe that we can make our own vaccines here in the UK without their help. I have said so before, and no-one has contradicted me!
Personally, I couldn't care less whether or not the EU dictators fail to vaccinate their people. In fact, if they continue to drag their feet, it is likely to result in their people revolting and, hopefully, the eventually collapse of their empire resulting in the restoration of a free Europe.
