Well they have absolutely no right to think that they should bully their way to the front of the queue after spending months at the back of the room holding on to their wallet. The UK/US have funded development and they have paid for their vaccines up front. The EU haven’t. It does seem quite...

What do you think the UK needs to do differently to ‘co-operate’?

But it doesn’t seem as though we are fighting? We seem to have bought and paid for a vaccine that someone is now threatening to withhold even though they might not want it themselves. Surely that seems a tad unfair.

I agree that it could be bad for us but despite your implication that we have caused this fight, the UK has done absolutely nothing wrong here and it seems like the EU/Germany have started to throw their weight around because they’re not getting what they want from an American company.

But doesn’t it look like it’s the EU causing the ‘fight’ as they’re not getting their own way? Despite maybe not even wanting the vaccine anyhow? After all I can’t see the UK named in any of the tweets or news articles.

The BBC ran the same story on Saturday.

It could get very interesting.

I don’t really think any of the EU countries have a right to complain just yet as they’ve not even passed the vaccine as fit to use. Perhaps when they have given the go ahead they then have the right to complain about the speed of rollout.

That’s just nonsense

Thanks for pointing that out. So Germany are saying the vaccine the EU has ordered is not good for people over 65, yet the EU are blocking the product from leaving the EU?

Oooooh But I thought the EU said the vaccine wasn‘t any good for the over 65’s, but now they are withholding the movement of the vaccine they haven’t passed, that they said is no good, leaving their factory.

How come none of the other 27 countries took the chance then?

Good post, but sorry to hear about your dad. Covid has a lot to answer for and there are lots of people out there who deny operations and appointments are being routinely cancelled. Time is finite and the more you get done the better. We made a list of the places to visit but two went by the...

Do you think Drs surgeries and pharmacies might close on Sunday so fewer vaccinations? In fact out pharmacy doesn’t open Saturday or Sunday.

He’s promised to ‘look’.

My daughter is in the same boat. The PHE advice is to speak to your doctor. However she is several months off yet from the jab as she’s under 30.

She should ask her doctor for advice if she is breastfeeding

I did it for the flexibility so I could do more of my own things during the week, and go and watch City in Europe. Fortunately for 95% of the time I could chose when I had to do my hours which is just what I needed.

Sorry for butting in guys, but I think the main thing is to keep your brain and body active. Both at bit difficult at the moment. Too many people vegetate in front of the goggle box, which is why you see pensioners walking slowly round Asda with such pale complexions. Get out in the fresh air...

Handed it back
