We had a fair referendum and those who felt strongly either way made sure they voted.
I'd hazard a guess that most of the whingeing remoaners are those who couldn't be bothered to vote and are now regretting it. They have no-one to blame but themselves.

BRINO
Clearly, the concept of majority votes in a democracy has escaped him!
Perhaps the penny will drop in 2024.

At least the UK was finished in 1948, unlike the EU which hadn't even begun. Look at the mess the EU is in now, once again it will be the UK to the rescue, just like last time and the time before.

Look what happened to us the last time.
Admittedly, we were fighting for our own survival then, but if we are sensible in future we should keep our noses out and let Europe fight its own battles.
Last time, Europe was overcome by a Nazi + Vichy France alliance. Next time, history could easily repeat itself and Europe would be conquered by a Franco-German alliance.
Both they and we would be nuclear armed! Any further aggression between them and us would risk escalation to a nuclear exchange which neither side would dream of risking.
For that reason, we should do what we had planned to do just before Christmas: pull out and leave them to their own devices, and have nothing more to do with them.
Having seen the activities of the EU/Franco-German alliance, the rest of the world would have to make up their own minds with whom to trade. Who would they trust?
A far-fetched scenario?

That's "repricocity", exporting vaccines made by an Anglo-Swedish company into the EU.
The BBC with their usual bias of course didn't tell anybody about where the vaccines were made.

The DE report includes the same statement from AZ, at the end of their report:

The french did not understand "Please". The italians did not know the word "honest". The poles did not know what an "opinion" was. All the north europeans like the dutch did not know "lack", while the irish did not know "food". Finally, the british didn't know anything about the "rest of the world".
