We've done that before, Hymie. You were wrong then and are still wrong now.
The EU (Mrs Von der Leyen actually) said quite clearly that, although members had the authority to procure vaccine supplies themselves, it was expected that the bloc would act as one in that procurement process. When the EU says it expects such collective action of its members, even though they actually have authority to operate unilaterally, it means that they will act in accordance with that expectation. Despite them all technically having the authority to go it alone, no EU nation actually did (and as a result, because of EU dithering, the roll out among EU nations was delayed), If the UK had still been members, neither would it have done so. You singularly fail to understand how the EU operates. Mr Johnson does - and so do I.
NJ – So what you are saying is that any EU member State could roll out the vaccine program as they pleased (just like the UK, having left the EU) – but they did not (acting together).
So it is a lie to say that the UK was able to roll out the vaccine program faster that had we been members of the EU.
The OP is turning into a Brexitfest and going off topic.
Bojo The Clown will conduct himself at this inquiry with the same approach that he has to everything - that it's all a big p i s s take and he will just be laughing at everyone. Not openly, although he might do. His mission in life is to see just how much he can get away with.
Gramps @ 15,32 ......(This man Boris you keep defending)...........
Judging by your user name ..."Gramps"...Think it out..
It is alleged that Boris said "Let the older people accept their fate "...."They have had a good innings." Boris also believed that "Covid was natures way of dealing with old people" And yet you defend him....Retro @ 19.51...Take note.
There was a thread on AnswerBank a short while ago pointing out that Brexiteers were more stupid than Remainers.
Hopefully you will understand this example.
There is a group 27 of people, who we will call group A.
There is a second group B, which consists of only 1 person.
Group A announce that they no longer wish their members to visit a particular pub in the local town (The Red Lion), however they agree that if any individual of the group wants to visit the pub, they are free to do so.
The single person in Group A, has placed no condition on visiting The Red Lion pub.
Question: Based on the above information, are members of both group A and B permitted to go to The Red Lion pub?
