It is straightforward, and you can bet every penny you have that if the Merck/Pasteur or Sanofi vaccine was the first to production and approval, no one in France would be feeling sorry for the UK for being at the back of the queue after not investing in it.

Alright, I'm done here and will be taking a few days off Bluemoon. Too much doomscrolling and need to focus on other things.
For the first time since this all started, I think there are now really solid reasons to be positive.
Get well soon to ask the blues here and their loved ones who are suffering from this.
Stay home if possible all, be kind, stay positive if you can and please seek help if you can't.

I think, adding insult to injury, the Merck vaccine has been shelved.

Well we have our own vaccine and produce it here don’t we?
No.

Not sure they’re prohibited. Bilateral deals certainly violate the spirit of the alliance purchasing agreement, but countries are still free to order more from suppliers. I think it’s on the condition that the Alliance is supplied first. Doesn’t make much difference when there aren’t any to go around, mind.You keep talking about "us" fighting, when the UK has done nothing and will do nothing. We are going to get our vaccine before them because we ordered first, we funded the development and we approved it first. All of those were huge risks, and there is a payoff. It's an agreement between the UK and a private company.
Germany has acted in bad faith from the beginning, or have you already forgotten their side deal with Pfizer that directly contradicted the EU joint agreement for procurement that prohibited such side deals?
In an ideal world I hope everyone gets along over the vaccine, but unfortunately one country is acting in bad faith and no one is going to let British people die by giving vaccines already bought by this country go to the EU to appease Germany.
Yep.Those riots in Holland over their new lockdown is mental
Way to protest about not being allowed out and shops being shut by smashing up and looting shops.
Are you sure? Because the Germans think it is. Peter Liese of Germany's Christian Democratic Union -
"The flimsy justification that there are difficulties in the EU supply chain but not elsewhere does not hold water, as it is of course no problem to get the vaccine from the UK to the continent," he said.
