More ill-informed nonsense from Paul Moy, The Express and the Sun.

 

Well, they don't want to tell the sclerotic, bitter, spiteful EU the real reason for obvious reasons, you very naive person, just as Boris keeps calling them 'our friends' rather than telling them his real thoughts.

It's called political expediency.

The EU reap what they sow by denigrating perfectly good companies and countries.

The figures would be a lot different if the EU had invested more time, energy and money in vaccines a year ago just as Britain did, rather than investing in denigrating AZ and the UK now. 

They were late to the table as usual and all this rubbish is a smoke-screen to cover up their monolithic inefficient ways.

The sooner they are disbanded and countries can govern themselves the better for europe and the rest of the world.

The Government have already stated that they have bought loads of vaccines an once we have immunized our people then the excess will be given to the rest of the world.

Exactly, and it will be free, while the countries of the EU will still be trying to vaccinate their citizens, sadly.  If the EU had invested more funds up front, as we did, they would not now be in the dire situation of trying to steal our jabs.  They are so sadly incompetent, bitter and spiteful.

Does your hatred have no end ?

Where are the links showing the U.K. exported more vaccine than the EU, another blatant lie.

Why not attack the US who will not export anything vaccine related and are trying to put AstraZeneca out of business. Why allow China and Russia to start getting new friends on board.

That seems to disagree with your lies and hatred, you claimed the EU exported none and the U.K. loads, I ask again your links please ?

How is your mate Alex Belfield today ?

I don't think it's a lie, Paul is just reporting on the story 

An opinion is never a lie...only in small-minded remainer brain cells,     . .. and also, just because there are material shortages at this time is not a reason not to sign a contract, as they can have covering clauses.  The delay in my opinion is that Novavax fear that they will be treated like dirt by the EU and have their good name dragged through the mud for any delivery issues as the EU are completely intolerant, as proven by the treatment of AZ.   The bitter, spiteful EU therefore reap what they sow.

No link ? Lie 

You add something knowing it is untrue, that’s a lie not an opinion.

And somebody who follows Alex Belfield wow.

Unless your comments are motivated by hatred for Europeans please explain why this is not aimed at the USA.

So, if the UK has produced 16 million vaccine doses but we know the UK has administered 30 million - where did the other 14 million doses come from? Paul, Swindon, anybody?

Meanwhile.... those nasty Europeans won't let them re-enter the night club they decided to walk out of. Well at least they'll be coming back to a lot more Union Flags everywhere than before, it'll make them feel more at home...

Indeed it does

Elsewhere it is reported that when the referendim crashed the pound, it made UK pensions paid in sterling worth far less. Couple that with the tax those living out there are now being charged, along with health insurance and it stops being 'the god life'.

A fair number of the returnees will be finding that unlike asylum seekers they cannot claim a four bed council house etc on returning to the UK, and unless they have a property in the UK, will have to live off the proceeds of any property they have/had in the EU.

A glut of properties on the market, with another summer that suggests low rental take up is not the best time to be selling either

The blind eye turned to UK nationals living in Spain etc without being registered (under the radar) is now over - and many may not welcome the thought of having to return, where previous misdemeanours may well come under the spotlight...again.

Schadenfreude msy not be the kindest approach, but when confronted by the whining of these and other brexiteers (farming. fishing) it is hard to have an ounce of sympathy. This is not some thing imposed on them,.It is something their own greed and contempt for others has inflicted upon them.

And the horror has only just begun.

Brexit created vacancies for crop pickers, I hear you get accommodation with the job.

There's going to be a Museum of Brexit now. 🤨

Will it be called ‘ The Museum of Racial Hatred ‘ and will there be a section celebrating ‘ The £350 million a week ‘ to the NHS and maybe some ‘ No longer used Trawlers ‘.

Shall we start a sweepstake to see how long the Farage statue will stay in one piece.

I thought there already was one, isn't it called Great Yarmouth? (I believe it's largely closed down though, especially the fishing industry section).

another day..............

"Small businesses have reported a marked drop in exports to the EU as another company bemoaned the post-Brexit “nightmare” of delivery delays and increased costs.

The Federation of Small Businesses (FSB), a lobby group, said 35 of the 132 exporters it surveyed had temporarily suspended trade with the EU or stopped it permanently. One in 10 of the exporters surveyed said they were also considering giving up trade with EU customers."

https://www.theguardian.com/business/2021/mar/29/small-business-exports-fall-eu-survey-brexit

''Matt Griffith, a spokesperson for the British Chambers of Commerce in the south-west, said members had experienced short-term costs plus “what looks like permanent deterioration in their competitive position due to higher admin, paperwork and shipping costs”.

''Mike Cherry, the FSB’s national chairman, said smaller businesses faced “incredibly demanding, unfamiliar paperwork”.  He added: “Three months on from the end of the transition period, what we hoped would prove to be teething problems are in danger of becoming permanent, systemic ones.''

☠️ Brexit, every day continuing to kill off UK exports ☠️

He lies more than Moy.

Still haven’t had my link. Wouldn’t mind but it was said to provoke racial hatred, if he lied and there is no link why not admit you got it wrong.

I thought promoting racial hatred was a crime in the U.K. but it seems to be ok if aimed at a certain group of countries.

he EU ban on many UK shellfish exports is "indefensible" and "unnecessary", the environment secretary has said.

George Eustice warned that fleets would have to find "alternative markets" if the EU would not adjust its position.

The EU has placed indefinite restrictions on British fishermen wanting to sell live mussels, oysters, clams and cockles to its member states.

The National Federation of Fishermen's Organisations has warned that the impact on the sector could be "severe".

Last month, it emerged that the EU had placed indefinite restrictions on British fishermen selling live bivalve molluscs such as mussels, oysters, clams, cockles and scallops to EU countries.

Since 1 January, UK firms have only been able to send pre-purified, ready-to-eat shellfish - accompanied with an export health certificate - to the continent.

Up until 2021, products could be purified after arriving at their destination.

Shellfish caught in the the cleanest waters - categorised as "class A" - can be transported without purification, but most UK coastal seas do not fall into this category.

The UK government had initially expected the restrictions to end on 21 April, but the EU says the current arrangements will stay indefinitely.

Appearing before the Commons Environment, Food and Rural Affairs Committee, Mr Eustice said the EU's position was "deeply frustrating".

He suggested that businesses in the EU such as French restaurants were keen for the trade to continue but said the European Commission "famously doesn't always move or react to democratic representations, even from its own member states".
