You saying vaccines have been a "reasonable success" says it all really. If it was the other way around you would be shouting from the rooftops telling us all how great the EU is and how utterly useless this country is outside it.
Exactly what you see from the whingeing remoaners in the Daily Express every day!

You'd think that they'd quieten down a bit now that we've left the EU, but no, they're as vociferous as ever, hoping against hope that they can drag us back in!

We should not be paying so much attention to a declining market.

Where?

UK trade with the EU has bounced back from its historic post-Brexit and lockdown-driven setback in January, according to new economic data published today by the ONS (13 April).
We'll ignore the effects of a global pandemic as well as pre-Brexit stockpiling too, shall we?

You should be paying more attention to the falling numbers of them entering the UK with goods from the EU. The increase in numbers is from lorries outside the block. Those lorries leaving empty are more of a concern for you than us.

Re: EU parliament refuses to set date for ratifying TCA

I see they are still trying to blame us and insisting that Brexit was a mistake:

"Austrian MEP Andreas Schieder said: “Brexit is a historic mistake, but now we need to establish a strong fundament for future relations."

No mistake from our point of view!

I do hope they reject it, and then we can finally move away from all their petty restrictions and bureaucracy. We can regain part of our nation (NI) and our territorial waters - and fish!

It just requires Boris to grow a pair. I wonder if he can.

Every time I see that word it cracks me up even though I know it's primary meaning is "foundation" and it's secondary is "buttocks" or "anus". Sorry for going off-topic.
